Because you live

Entering a dimly lit cantina Jaina Solo, looks around and mumbles, “Can my life get any worse?” Of course it can, a voice in her head replies. “Kyp said to meet him here at 1700 and he’s not here, I missed seeing Jacen off for this?”

Now singing, Because you Live, give it up for the Rogue.” “Ladies and gentlemen, I was just informed that Jaina Solo is in the crowd.”

Making her way to the stage, she pastes a smile on her face. “Jaina, what are you doing here?” “Umm, Kyp Durron told me to meet him here.” “Well, you’re in for a treat with the Rogue.” “Thank you.” Sitting down she impatiently wait for the Rogue to come on stage, then her mouth drops. Kyp, she whispers not really believing that he’s the Rogue.

He nods in reply and begins to sing.

“Staring out at the rain with a heavy heart

It's the end of the world in my mind

Then your voice calls me back like a wake up call

I've been looking for the answer

Somewhere

I couldn't see that it was right there

But now I know what I didn't know

Because you live and breathe

Because you make me believe in myself when nobody else can help

Because you live, girl

My world has twice as many stars in the sky.

Is this song for me, she wonders as she looks up at Kyp.

He nods and she jumps on stage. “Kyp?” He doesn’t answer but he sings looking directly at her.

It's alright, I survived, I'm alive again

Cuz of you, made it though every storm

What is life, whats the use if your killed inside

I'm so glad I found an angel

Someone

Who was there when all my hopes fell

I wanna fly, looking in your eyes

Because you live and breathe

Because you make me believe in myself when nobody else can help

Because you live, girl

My world has twice as many stars in the sky

Because you live, I live

“Was that a proposal, Kyp?” “Yes, Jaina Solo.”

“Yes!” “Really?” Instead of answering, she sings:

Because you live, there's a reason why

I carry on when I lose the fight

I want to give what you've given me always

“Jaina Solo, Thank you.” Smiling at each other; they finish the looking directly at each other.

Because you live and breathe

Because you make me believe in myself when nobody else can help

Because you live, girl

My world has twice as many stars in the sky

Because you live and breathe

Because you make me believe in myself when nobody else can help

Because you live, girl

My world has everything I need to survive

Because you live, I live, I live

Then, Jacen, Tahiri, Anakin, Mara Jade, Luke Skywalker, Tenel Ka, Han, and Leia Solo step out of the crowd.

“What are you guys doing here?’

“Listening to you and Kyp sing.”

“Well since every body’s here I guess we can tell them.”

“Tell us what, Jaina?”

“Kyp and I are engaged, Dad.”

“Congrats, Kid.”

“Thanks, Han.”

“Why, Jaina" , her brother asks. Jaina doesn’t answer but everyone knows what she’s thinking.

Because you live and breathe

Because you make me believe in myself when nobody else can help

Because you live, girl

My world has twice as many stars in the sky

Because you live and breathe

Because you make me believe in myself when nobody else can help

Because you live, girl

My world has everything I need to survive

This is, again, okay.

I have two suggestions. SPACE. And I thought the dialogue during the song was a little weird.

If you edit and SPACE, it could be really good.
