1. 0.00- 0.30 Day time, Outside,
brightness of the light
coming through the trees.
Main guy in the setting
coming into focus to the
audience.
Medium close ups, long
shots.
And in the middle of the night
I may watch you go
There'll be no value in the
strength
of walls that I have grown
2. 0.30- 1.00 Shadow focuses from the
ground of the main guy to
match the lyrics-
Parallel music.
Medium shots, close ups
There'll be no comfort in the shade
of the shadows thrown
But I'd be yours if you'd be mine
Stretch out my life
and pick the seams out
Take what you like
but close my ears and eyes 3. 1.00-1.30
Camera shots of the
recording studio,
instruments in shot to
the audience
Close up shots
Watch me stumble over and over
I had done wrong
you built your tower
But call me home
and I will build a throne
And wash my eyes out never again
4. 1.30-2.00 Camera transition coming
into focus of the main
guy singing in the
studio. Showing the
making of the song to the
audience.
Close ups, medium close
ups
But love the one you hold
And I'll be your gold
To have and to hold
A lover of the light
Skin too tight
and eyes like marbles
You spin me high
so watch me as I glide
5. 2.00-2.30 Camera shots of outside,
brightness of the lights
the main guy in focus of
the scene showing the
happiness of the music
and the scene. Long
shots, low angel shots.
Before I tumble homeward, homeward
I know I've tried
I was not stable
And flawed by pride
I miss my sanguine eyes
So hold my hands up -- breathe in,
and breathe out

6. 2.30-3.00 CUT OUT OF SONG.
So love the one you hold
And I'll be your gold
To have and to hold
A lover of the light
(2.46 – 3.07) instrumental
7. 3.00-3.30 CUT OUT OF SONG.
And in the middle of the night
I may watch you go
There'll be no value in the
strength
of walls that I have grown
There'll be no comfort in the shade
of the shadows thrown
8. 3.30-4.00 CUT OUT OF SONG.
You may not trust the promises
of the change I'll show
But I'd be yours if you'd be mine
9. 4.00-4.30 CUT OUT OF SONG.
(3.41- 4.43) Instrumental
10. 4.30-5.00
outside filming,
following the main guy.
The brightness of the sun
on the guy. Long shots,
medium long shots.
So love the one you hold
And I will be your gold
To have and to hold
A lover of the light
11. 5.00-5.30
Fading music at the end,
the transition of the sun
blurred. Long shot
showing the sunset.
So love the one you hold
And I will be your gold
To have and to hold
A lover of the light
