I don't play it very often, but I was thinking about Satie's Trois Gnossiennes. It's more melancholic than his Gymnopédies, but it has moments, especially in the second movement, that are really uplifting. That's how I felt with you! Even if it was really dark and heavy outside, you were here with me.
[Somehow saying corny stuff like that doesn't embarrass her nearly as much as the act of falling asleep on him had.
She pulls her hand back from her neck, holds up one finger, and winks.]
Do you know John Cage's 4'33"? If you haven't seen anyone perform it yet, you have to let me be the first one, okay?
[Telling him about it literally being someone sitting silently with an instrument ahead of time would ruin the surprise!]
