SPIKE: The sun sets and she appears. Come to serenade me?

BUFFY: So you know what's going on.

SPIKE: Well, I've seen some damn funny things in the last two days. A 600 pound Chirago demon making like Yma Sumac, *that* one will stay with you. I remain immune, happy to say. (holds up a bottle of whiskey) Drink?

BUFFY: A world of no. So any idea what's causing this?

SPIKE: (disappointed) Oh. So that's all. You've just come to pump me for information.

BUFFY: What else would I wanna pump you for? (cringes) I really just said that, didn't I?

SPIKE: Yeah, well ... don't wanna bore you with the small talk. (opens his door, inviting her to leave) Don't know a thing.

BUFFY: What's up? You're all bad-mood-y.

SPIKE: Nothing. Glad you could stop by. (Buffy remains seated) It's nothing.

BUFFY: What?

 

Spike's Song To Buffy

I died, too many years ago

You can make me feel,

like it isn't so.

Why you come to be with me,

I think I finally know...

 

You're scared, ashamed of what you feel

You can't tell the ones you love

You know they couldn't deal.

Whisper in a dead man's ear

Doesn't make it real....

That's great, but I don't wanna play

Being with you touches me more than I can say.

Since I'm only dead to you,

I'm saying stay away,

And let me rest in peace.

 

Let me rest in peace,

Let me get some sleep.

Let me take my love and bury it

In a hole 6 foot deep

I can lay my body down

but I can't find my sweet release...

So let me rest in peace.

 

You know I'm your willing slave.

And you just love to play the part

And you might misbehave.

But till you do, I'm telling you

Stop visiting my grave,

And let me rest in peace.

 

I know I should go,

But I follow you like a man possessed.

There's a traitor here beneath my breast

And it hurts me more than you've ever guessed.

If my heart could beat it would break my chest...

But I can see you're unimpressed,

So leave me be.

 

Let me rest in peace

let me get some sleep

Let me take my love and bury it

In a hole 6 foot deep.

I lay my body down

But I can't find my sweet release...

Let me rest in peace.

Why won't you let me rest in peace?

BUFFY: Hey.

SPIKE: You should go back inside. Finish the big group sing. Get your kum-ba-yayas out.

BUFFY: I don't want to.

SPIKE: (sighs) The day you suss out what you do want, there'll probably be a parade. Seventy-six bloody trombones.

BUFFY: Spike...

SPIKE: Look, you don't have to say anything.

BUFFY: (sings) I touch the fire and it freezes me.

SPIKE: (sings) I died...

BUFFY: (at the same time as Spike's next verse)
I look into it and it's black
This isn't real
But I just want to feel

SPIKE: (at the same time as Buffy's last verse)
So many years ago.
But you can make me feel

(they kiss, the words "THE END" appear over them)

ALL: (singing) Where do we go from here?
