Claire explains to Jason her romantic past with a man who died in the 9/11 attacks.
View Lyrics
'Because I'll be here At the corner of Bleeker and Mercer tomorrow at 7. If you want to meet up, I'll be waiting right here, And in case there are two fellas waiting for you, my name's John." He waved and then he was gone.
Needless to say I went back there to meet him Mostly to see if he'd show, and there he was Out in the cold with his jacket pulled tight. He took me to dinner and kissed me goodnight. The next week we went to this terrible play. And the week after that drank hot chocolate all day. And suddenly, eight or nine months had flown by when he said "Hey, whatcha doing the rest of your life?'
'Because I'll be here Right beside you as long as you want me to be. There's no question. There is nothing I've wanted so much in my life. This might sound immature but I'm totally sure you're the one." And we had just begun.
We got hitched in September, our favorite month, With a rock band that played in this old synagogue. And we bought an apartment on West 17th street and talked about children and getting a dog. Our first anniversary came in a flash And we promised to take the day off. He had to stop into his office that morning, And so I went walking uptown to this bakery I know. When I heard on the street what I thought was a joke Till I noticed the sirens and saw all the smoke. So I'm running back home with this feeling of dread To the voicemail he left with the last words he said.
I'm sorry, I don't mean to ruin your evening by bringing up all of this stuff. You're probably wondering why I even called you tonight. Well today something happened that spooked me alright. I saw this storm cloud of papers fall down from the sky, And I thought of that day and I started to cry. When as sure as I breath I heard John clear as day saying "Hey, you're allowed to move on. It's okay.'
'Because I'll be here Even if you decide to get rid of my favorite sweater. Even if you go out on my birthday This year instead of staying at home letting all of life's moments pass by. You don't have to cry.'
'Because I'll be here When you start going back to the places we went to together. When you take off my ring and you let yourself smile. When you meet some handsome and patient and true. When he says that he wants to be married to you. When you call him one night and he meets you downtown. When you finally answer him yes." Yes. Jason, I will marry you. I will give you my heart. It has taken so long, but I'm ready to start. Right now John's whispering 'Congrats' in my ear cause I finally let myself tell you That I will be here.

Cal, a magician's assistant, realizes that her career and love life are not working out, so she considers reluctantly returning to West End Avenue.
View Lyrics
West End Avenue. Babies in carts and poodles barking, West End Avenue. Planning the day around the parking.
You tell yourself, "I will be free." West End Avenue, You won't get me.
All of your life you watch the shrinks and lawyers on parade, Watch the brokers in their worsted and the ad men in their suede. While upstairs a soprano tries to sing the waltz from "La Boheme." And you watch 'em and you listen and you judge and you condemn: You're not like them.
West End Avenue. Delis and laundromats and gay bars, West End Avenue. Only a block away from Zabars.
But you were meant to really fly. West End Avenue, Good bye, good bye.
And then suddenly you're out there on your own. But you forgot that free could also mean alone. And when all that freedom gets too much for you, Ooh, what do you do?
You pack up your boots and blue jeans and your records and your pride, And you tell yourself you ventured and you tell yourself you tried. And it's back to the surly doormen and the canopies you go. And the buses seem to chuckle and the towers seem to crow: "We told you so."
West End Avenue, Find me a golden cage to perch in. West End Avenue, Open your arms to one more urchin Who's crawlin' back to mama's den. West End Avenue, You win again!

A woman who is bittersweet with her life surrenders to her circumstances without complaining.
View Lyrics
I didn't ask him for a penny I'd had my liberated training
So off he went with his hair of bronze To find a life like Khalil Gibran's I got my rest from the drugs he did He got his quest, I got the kid
And oh, I'm not complaining
So I set off to be a writer, A modern mother on her own I wrote up happenings at galleries Turned down jobs with salaries Stayed freelance and alone
I fought the battles of the sixties Which you recall were rather draining When men were thick, I hit the fray Became a prick Got equal pay I faced down chauvinistic slobs I won the fights Improved the jobs
And oh, I'm not complaining
My husband found himself his ashram Lost forty pounds and went through hell Then one day he came back from limbo Found himself some bimbo And moved to New Rochelle
I raised my son and I had lovers My choices sometimes take explaining I'd meet some jock My friends would scoff He'd stay a while I'd drive him off I kept my space Preserved my turf Six months I'd send him back to surf
And oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, I was not complaining
So now my son's half way through college I pay tuition like a fine I'm still this feisty freelance writer Resume well honed At a well toned forty-nine
I find that getting work is harder Each job I want takes more campaigning And those sweet young things who hire me now Those MBAs making fifty thou Who smile and ask what I have done When they got their jobs from the fights I won
Ah, they should all stay home and have babies
But I'm not complaining
And in the evening at my window As I watch Jersey growing dim I feel a troubling emotion Summed up in this notion I wish I'd stayed with him
Lord knows each day with him was madness As I have spent my life maintaining
But more and more I recall the joy My golden dreamer My lost boy Our life was life in the twilight zone But no worse than a life alone
And oh, Well I chose my way And I'm not complaining

You must be mistaken I'm sure that you are! There's more than one car with stickers on. And lots of young guys wear corduroy pants. And I'd know if he hadn't gone
Take that look off your face (Take that look off your face) I can see through your smile (I can see through your smile) You would love to be right, I bet you didn't sleep good last night Couldn't wait to bring all of that bad news to my door. Well, I've got news for you: I knew before.
If I'm not mistaken, it started last year.
I'm not very clear how it began I noticed a change, but I just closed my eyes As only a woman can.
No, I didn't dig deep. (No, I didn't dig deep.) I did not want to know. (I did not want to know.) Well, you don't interfere when you're scared of the things you might hear. When he's back, you think I will end it right there and then? Well, my fair weather friend: you're wrong again!
Take that look off your face (Take that look off your face) I can see through your smile (I can see through your smile) You would love to be right, I bet you didn't sleep good last night Couldn't wait to bring all of that bad news to my door. Well, I've got news for you: I knew before.

View Lyrics
Anything but lonely, Anything but only me. Quiet years in too much space: That's the thing that's hard to face, And ...
You have a right to go, But you should also know That I won't be alone for long. Long days with nothing said Are not what lie ahead -- I'm sorry, but I'm not that strong.
Anything but lonely, Anything but passing time. Lonely's what I'll never be, While there's still some life in me, And ...
I'm still young, don't forget, It isn't over yet -- So many hearts for me to thrill. If you're not here to say How good I look each day, I'll have to find someone who will.
Anything but lonely, Anything but empty rooms. There's so much in life to share -- What's the sense when no one else is there ...?
What's the sense when no one else is there ...?

View Lyrics
Now, I'm walking alone as the wind circles all around. Waiting for the slightest move or the first unexpected sound. This time will I raise my shield when the hunters spot their prey? This time will I stay in the field or will I run away?
From who I am, And what I want, And what I can find, And who I will be.
Now, I'm moving along as the twilight begins to spread. I take in this moment as the clouds gather overhead. This time will I see what's true when the lightening streaks through the grey? This time will it blind my view or will it light the way?
To who I am, And what I want, And what I can find, And who I will be.
And all these questions in me, are fading away as I suddenly see; I can embrace everything behind me. And find the place where I finally find me.
Now, I run with you as a new sun begins to rise. I can see forever through these endless big blue skies.
Now is the only time. Here is the only place. This is all I want to be.
This time I can see the view. This time the sun will shine through. This time. This time. This time.

I'm trying to keep sane as the rules keep changing Families aren't what they were Thank God there's a husband and a child whom I adore But then there's more So many more There's always more
Life is never what you planned Life is moments you can't understand And that is life I'm plain I don't astound
I hold to the ground As the ground keeps shifting Keeping my balance square Trying not to care about this man who Marvin loves But that's my life He shared my life Yes, that's my life
Life is never what you planned Life is moments you can't understand And that is life
Holding to the ground As the ground keeps shifting Trying to keep sane As the rules keep changing Keeping up my head As my heart falls out of sight Everything will be all right Everything will be all right

I want true love someday But, just not now A picket fence clich` But just not now How can I make you see Though this feels right to me Now`s not the time to be Quite where you are
You`re here too soon And though I know It sounds unfair If you would wait for me, I swear I`ll meet you there I need some time to heal And though your love seems real I`m not prepared to feel The way you do
Let`s take this time We`ll wait it out Or else we`ll crash and burn I`m lost And I don`t know What true love`s all about Please give me time to learn

Grania (known in the show as “Grace”) vents to her lover Tiernan over her frustration that her father Dubhdara forbids her to sail on his ship.
View Lyrics
If I long for fire Must it stay unreal? Can I not desire? Am I not to feel?
If I ache to taste Am I not to try? If my heart says sail Why must I deny? I have my dreams I have made plans
I see horizons wide as a man’s Must I be nothing till I’m some man’s wife?
Look at this face Does it deceive? Do I look made to milk and to weave? I will be damned to Hell if that is my life! (Interlude)
Tiernan, I’m almost your age, I’m your match in size, I’m your match with swords An equal in most eyes
But when you have a dream And you’re caught in it’s grip You can climb aboard a ship You can – You can for you’re a man
You can reach toward that place Where the earth meets the sky Fight a battle be brave, be true If you can do it, why not I?
I’m meant to fly Sail unrestrained Why is man free and woman chained? Is that my epitaph before I die?
I should be free Free to be Grace I want to feel the wind on my face! And when life beckons, I should go Face out the storm, not stay below Am I to be just woman? No! Not I!
