To acknowledge Connie

OLD LIL
Yes he passed this year

MEDIUM
He's your husband?

OLD LIL
Yes

MEDIUM
That's clear I can feel it right in here, oh he loves you
Now look he says... wait I've got a sense of... wait
You haven't had a problem, have you, with your leg?

OLD LIL
No, I never have

MEDIUM
That's right, he says you haven't
Good strong legs on her
She'll never have to worry about that

Message that I can pass on?
I have a feeling in my chest
A heavy feeling

BENNY
That must be my brother

MEDIUM
He's passed?

BENNY
From Emphysema

MEDIUM Yes, it is your brother
He's here with us tonight
And he says he has something
That he would like to set aright
Are you worried about money?

BENNY
Yes, I'm worried about money

MEDIUM Y
Our brother says don't worry
About money any more

BENNY
He was never one for worry

Merely listen at the door
Was he quite a spendthrift Benny?

OLD LIL AND BENNY TOGETHER
Leave their love with us
For love endures

CHORUS
Wonderful
Yes, he's wonderful
The way he talks to us like he is one of us
Is wonderful
Wonderful
Ooh he's wonderful
He's a miracle worker
He gives us all hope for a future
That we had been so terrified to see
To the dead, he speaks to the dead
He wanders in realms where men fear to tread
And speaks to them
To be with him is to believe in him
All of these experts, what the hell do they know?
We need him
Because the world's so pitiless and sad
We'd go mad

MEDIUM
Yes, we're in the spirit
They're coming loud and clear
They want to speak to... Pat?

PAT
I'm Pat!

MEDIUM
Yes. I knew that
Have you lost someone?

PAT
Me daughter

MEDIUM
Thank you, darling
Was your daughter Kayleigh?

PAT
My little girl!

MEDIUM
She's calling I get a sense of being breathless
And a muffling of sound

PAT
My god, my god, that's her
My little angel drowned
Is she scared?

MEDIUM
No she's in spirit
Says there wasn't any pain
Says you're not to worry
And you'll be with her again
Is there a photo in your house?
But hidden in a drawer?

PAT
Oh yes. I couldn't bear
To look at it anymore

MEDIUM
She says take that photo out
And stick it right back on the wall
Ha! You see, she's laughing
She's laughing at us all
She loved to laugh, didn't she?
Didn't she love to laugh?

PAT
She did

MEDIUM
You used to laugh together

PAT
When she took a bath
Is she happy where she is?

MEDIUM
Yes she's happy, yes she is

PAT
I'm so sorry

MEDIUM
Don't be sorry
Kayleigh is at peace
I'll leave her love with you

CHORUS
Kayleigh is at peace!
