At the funeral for Malcolm's mother, he and Ethan subtly announce their relationship.
View Lyrics
Is it the wind, over my shoulder? Is it the wind that I hear gently whispering? Are you alone, there in the valley? No not alone for you walk, you walk with me

Is it the wind there, over my shoulder? Is it your voice calling quietly? Over the hilltop, down in the valley Never alone for you walk with me

When evening falls and the air gets colder When shadows cover the road I am following Will I be alone there in the darkness? No, not alone, not alone and I'll never be

Never alone you are walking You're walking with me

Is it the wind there, over my shoulder? Is it your voice calling quietly? Over the hilltop, down in the valley Never alone for you walk with me Over the hilltop, down in the valley Never alone for you walk with me

Never alone for you walk with me

A civilian is doubtful of the existence of God.
View Lyrics
Shining in the eyes of every child, And in the flame of dawn reflecting on the open sea. In every fury and every love, You are awaiting me.

But what about the child who cannot breathe, Or the gentle sage who won't see the age of thirty-two? I am awaiting, I am awaiting you.

Light it all and burn it to the ground! Go ahead and let your thunder sound! Let me watch my loves and my teachers slowly fade away. I'll just have to wait another day.

Maybe in God we trust just a lucky charm, Maybe faith is only hoping that we can rise anew. And so I rise and so I stand. I am awaiting you, oh, I will still be standing here awaiting you.

Light it all and burn it to the ground! Go ahead and let your thunder sound! Let me watch my loves and my teachers slowly fade away. I'll just have to wait another day.

And so I rise and so I stand. I am awaiting, I am awaiting you. Awaiting you, oh, I will still be standing here awaiting you.

Tiernan is devastated after his longtime love, Grace, has married another man. Tiernan senses, however, that this is not the end for him and Grace, and vows to remain close to her.
View Lyrics
What Do I Say? What Do I Do? How Will I Ever Hope To Fare?
How Can I Stay So Close To You Knowing Now That Your Place Is In Another's Embraces, In Another Man's Care?
I Should Be Gone Far From This Hell Till Not A Trace Of You Survives
Yet I'll Stay On For I Know Well Though You've Left Me Behind You One Day Troubles Will Find You And When That Day Arrives
I'll Be There For To Me There's No Sorrow Worse To Bear Than A Life Lived Apart.
I'll Be There Come The Mists On The Morrow I'll Be There By Your Side And Deep Within Your Heart
Now she's his wife And nobody knows How much of her she'll have to hide.
But Whatever Life He Might Propose Will Be Merely Pretending To The Dream Never-Ending We'll Now Hold Inside
I'll Be There Though I Know That It's Madness, Heart Laid Bare, Stripped Of Pride, Yet Still Proud.
I'll Be There In The Depths Of My Sadness I'll Be There Ever Steeled Unyielding And Unbowed.
Go And Marry A Man You Don't Love If That Pleases You. Throw Away, For A Cause, All The Joys We Have Known
I Thought Love's More Than Faith, More Than Clans, More Than Anything Let His Kiss Keep You Warm I'll Be Fine On My Own...
Is It Me I'm Deceiving? Mad Or Not, I'll Stay True. I'll Be There... I'll Be There, Heaven Speed Me, By Your Side, As You Need Me I'll Be There For You.

We plow the fields and scatter the good seed on the land.. But it is fed and watered by God's almighty hand.. He sends us snow in winter, the warmth to swell the grain... The breezes and the sunshine, and soft refreshing rain...

All good gifts around us Are sent from Heaven above So thank the Lord, oh thank the Lord for all his love...

We thank thee then, O Father, for all things bright and good, The seedtime and the harvest, our life, our health, our food, No gifts have we to offer for all thy love imparts But that which thou desirest, our humble thankful hearts!

All good gifts around us Are sent from Heaven above.. So thank the Lord, oh thank the Lord for all his love..

I really wanna thank you Lord!

Frederic, an ex-pirate who has just returned to the normal world, begs for a group of maidens to take pity on him.
View Lyrics
FREDERIC Oh is there not one maiden breast, Which does not feel the moral beauty. Of making worldly interest, Subordinate to sense of duty.
Who would not give up willing
All matrimonial ambitions? To rescue such a one as I
From his unfortunate position? From his position. To rescue such a one as I
From his unfortunate position!

DAUGHTERS Alas, there's not one maiden breast, Which seems to feel the moral beauty. Of making worldly interest, Subordinate to sense of duty.

FREDERIC Oh is there not one maiden here Whose homely face and bad complexion, Have caused all hope to disappear Of ever winning mans affection

To such a one if such there be I swear by heavens arch above you if you will cast your eyes on me However plain you'll be I'll love you, However plain you'll be.

If you will cast your eyes on me However plain you'll be I'll love you, I'll love you. I'll love, I'll lo-o-ove you.

DAUGHTERS Alas there's not one maiden here Whose homely face and bad complexion has caused all hope to disappear Of ever winning mans affection

FREDERIC Not one?

DAUGHTERS No, no not one.

FREDERIC Not one?

DAUGHTERS No, no.

MABEL Yes, one!

DAUGHTERS 'Tis Mabel!

MABEL 'Tis Ma-a-a-bel!

Rosemary, a young secretary, dreams of a future living with Finch, a window cleaner.
View Lyrics
New Rochelle, New Rochelle, That's the place where the mansion will be For me and the darling bright young man I've picked out for marrying me.
He'll do well, I can tell. So it isn't a moment too soon To plan on my life in New Rochelle, The wife of my darling tycoon.
I'll be so happy to keep his dinner warm While he goes onward and upward; Happy to keep his dinner warm Till he comes wearily home from down town.
I'll be there waiting until his mind is clear While he looks through me, right through me; Waiting to say, "Good evening, dear. I'm pregnant. What's new with you from down town?"
Oh, to be loved by a man I respect; To bask in the glow of his perfectly understandable neglect. Oh, to belong in the aura of his frown--darling busy frown. Such heaven--
Wearing the wifely uniform While he goes onward and upward. Happy to keep his dinner warm Till he comes wearily home from down town.

If he really knew me If he really truly knew me Maybe he would see the other side of me I seldom see

If there were no music If the melodies stopped playing Would he be the kind of man I’d want to see tonight

Does the man make the music Or does the music make this man And is he everything I thought he’d be

If he really knew me If he’d take the time to understand Maybe he could find me The part I left behind me Maybe he’d remind me Of who I am

Doria, a pageant contestant, dreams of visiting Disneyland in the future.

Hot Sunday night, I guess the folks were busy fighting Joe'd already left home, eleven years old on my own feeling nothing but lonely
There's nothing to do, there's nothing out there but the traffic Down on state ninety-three So I'd sit through the night by our old black and white TV That's where I saw it That's when I heard it Calling, Calling me
Disneyland, Magic Kingdom Disneyland, I close my eyes real tight Wishing hard I might, wishing hard I may Find my way to Disneyland, Gotta get to Disneyland, on a western breeze Magic carpet please, carry me away

I know you're gonna say the trees are paper mache It's done with mirrors, the magic there Each little birds full of springs, you press a button it sings Recorded music in the air They've had the mountain refaced it's only plywood and paste Go on say it! I'll turn around and tell you I don't care I don't... care

I will live in Disneyland Make my home in Disneyland Maybe it's all fake, That's a chance I'll take It's perfectly ok Someone give me Disneyland Take me there! To Disneyland And when I get to Disneyland I'll stay

Saw my shadow on the wall Saw my love nowhere at all Saw my life as a hard thing to get through

When you're born, they carry you When you're gone, they bury you In between, you're on your own Hard to stand there All alone

Someone crying down the hall Dying cries, they tell it all Lord, this life is a hard thing to live And harder, still, To leave

View Lyrics
(Spoken)
It’s your own fault Charity Barnum.
If you'd only asked a few logical questions before you married him, You would have put a healthy distance between yourself and a fella Who wants to give the whole world a paint job. Which I’m not so sure it needs...
(Sung) The colors of my life Are softer than a breeze. The silver gray of eiderdown, The dappled green of trees. The amber of a wheat field, The hazel of a seed, The crystal of a raindrop, Are all I'll ever need. Your reds are much too bold, In gold I find no worth.
I'll fill my days with sage and brown The colors of the earth, And if from by my side My love should roam, The colors of my life Will shine a quiet light To lead him home.

View Lyrics

This is very strange. Everything is changing. Suddenly a door Can slam.

This is very strange. Suddenly we're strangers. And I start to wonder Who I am.

What is a woman? What is she made of? Why is a woman afraid of Not being in love?

What is a woman? What does she long for? Why is it wrong for a woman To be all alone?

Young girls are April With rainbows and changes. One day they grow up And April is over forever

To be a woman Means being lonely. That's why a woman is only Alive when in love.

Young girls are April With rainbows and changes. One day they grow up And April is over forever.

To be a woman Means being lonely. That's why a woman Is only alive When in love.

Heather reveals her feelings forJoe in a song she wrote for him.
View Lyrics
Love is rare, life is strange Nothing lasts, people change

Every time I lost another lover I call up my old friend And I say let's get together I'm under the weather Another love has come to an end

And he listens as I tell him my sad story And wonders at my taste in men And we ponder why I do it And the pain of getting through it And he laughs and says, "You'll do it again"

But we sit in a bar and talk till two About life and love as old friends do And tell each other what we've been through Our love is rare, and life is strange Nothing lasts, and people change

And I ask him if his life is ever lonely And if he ever feels despair And he says he's learned to love it 'Cause that's really all part of it And it helps him feel the good time when they're there

Yes, we sit in a bar and talk till two About life and love as old friends do And tell each other what we've been through Our love is rare, and life is strange Nothing lasts, and people change

And we wonder if I live with any lovers Or spend my life alone And the bartender is dozing And it's getting time for closing So we figured that I'll go out on my own

But we'll meet the year we're 62 And travel the world as old friends do And tell each other what we've been through Our love is rare, and life is strange Nothing lasts, and people change

Love is rare, life is strange Nothing lasts, people change Old friend

A mother has memories of her son playing the piano.
View Lyrics
I had a son He was one of a kind Son of a gun We were too intertwined

I look damn good in a hat My black dress hides the fact I don't want sympathy He was here and now he's gone The music still plays on I see the keys And I freeze No surprise This is how he Thinks I'll be When he dies

I'll be gracious and aloof Or I'll climb on the roof Shouting obscenities He was here and now he's gone The music still plays on

The music still plays on And on and on and on Loud and fast and clear The music still plays on And on and on and on Even though you're not here My dear

Married too young I was brash, I was bold Married too young And divorced far too old

Husband sleeker than a horse He rears and flies off course I liked his pedigree Love is here and then it's gone The music still plays on

The music still plays on And on and on and on As my men depart The music still plays on And on and on and on Transmitted through my foolish heart

So, stay away I'm okay, I'm ahead What came to pass Once and as one is dead

Love is stupid and it bleeds It satisfies my needs I think it's wonderful Once it was wonderful Love is here and then it's gone The music still plays on They were here and now their gone The music still plays on And on and on

Grace explains that she doesn't want young people becoming millworkers because of the physical demands.
View Lyrics
Now my grandfather was a sailor, He blew in off the water My father was a farmer I, his only daughter, Took up with a no-good millworking man from Massachusetts Who dies from too much whiskey And leaves me these three faces to feed

Millwork ain't easy; mill-work ain't hard Millwork, it ain't nothing but an awful boring job I'm waiting for a day dream To take me through the morning And put me in my coffee break Where I can have a sandwich and remember

Then it's me and my machine For the rest of the morning For the rest of the afternoon And the rest of my life

Now my mind begins to wander To the days back on the farm I can see my father smiling at me, Swingin' on his arm I can hear my grand-dad's stories Of the storms out on Lake Erie Where vessels and cargos and fortunes And sailor's lives were lost

Yes, but it's my life has been wasted, And I have been the fool To let this manufacture use my body for a tool. I can ride home in the evening, Staring at my hands Swearing by my sorrow that a young girl Ought to stand a better chance

So may I work the mills Just as long as I am able And never meet the man whose Name is on the label

It be me and my machine For the rest of the morning For the rest of the afternoon And the rest of my life

The fancy-free Helen makes a move on the salesman Paris.
View Lyrics
It's a lazy afternoon And the beetle bugs are zooming And the tulip trees are blooming And there's not another human in view but us two

It's a lazy afternoon And the farmer leaves his reaping In the meadow cows are sleeping And the speckled trouts stop leaping up stream

As we dream A far pink cloud hangs over the hill Unfolding like a rose If you hold my hand and sit real still You can hear the grass as it grows

It's a hazy afternoon And I know a place that's quiet 'Cept for daisies running riot And there's no one passing by it to see Come spend this lazy afternoon with me

Mother, who is now occupied with her own dreams, hopes that things will change in Father's absence.
View Lyrics
Goodbye my love. God bless you. And I suppose, Bless America, too.
You have places to discover, Oceans to conquer, You need to know I'll be there at the window While you go on your way. I accept that.
But, what of the people Who stay where they're out, Planted like flowers with roots underfoot.
I know some of those people Have hearts that would rather Go Journeying On the sea.
Tell me, What of the people Whose boudaries chafe, Who marry so bravely And end up so safe.
Tell me how to be someone Whose heart can explore While still staying here.
Let this be the year We both travel... Goodbye, my love Journey on.

Fosca fantasizes about Giorgio writing a letter to her.
View Lyrics
GIORGIO (spoken) Fosca, it will be light soon, I should be going

FOSCA (spoken) Would you do me a great favor before you leave? Would you write a letter for me?

GIORGIO (spoken) Certainly

FOSCA (spoken) My dearest Fosca... (Giorgio stops writing and looks at her, annoyed.) Please (Giorgio resumes writing.)

GIORGIO (spoken) "My dearest Fosca"

FOSCA I wish I could forget you Erase you from my mind But ever since I met you I find, I cannot leave the thought of you behind That doesn't mean I love you...

GIORGIO That doesn't mean I love you...

FOSCA I wish that I could love you...

I know that I've upset you I know I've been unkind I wanted you to vanish from sight But now I see you in a different light And though I cannot love you I wish that I could love you

For now I'm seeing love Like none I've ever known A love as pure as breath, as permanent as death Implacable as stone A love that, like a knife, has cut into a life I wanted left alone A love I may regret But one I can't forget

I don't know how I let you So far inside my mind But there you are and there you will stay How could I ever wish you away? I see now I was blind And should you die tomorrow Another thing I see: Your love will live in me

(spoken) I remain... Your Giorgio

After Neville threatens to send Mary to boarding school, the chambermaid Martha encourages her to persevere.
View Lyrics
I think you were just what our Colin needed. What you've got to do is finish What you have begun! I don't know just how But it's not over till you've won.

When you see the storm is coming See the lightning part the skies It's too late to run There's terror in your eyes What you do then is remember This old thing you heard me say "It's the storm, not you That's bound to blow away"

Hold on Hold on to someone standing by Hold on Don't even ask how long or why? Child, hold on to what you know is true Hold on till you get through Child, oh child Hold on

When you feel your heart is poundin' Fear a devil's at your door There's no place to hide You're frozen to the floor What you do then is you force yourself To wake up, and just say "It's this dream, not me That's bound to go away"

Hold on Hold on, the night will soon be by Hold on Until there's nothing left to try Child, hold on, there's angels on their way Hold on and hear them say "Child, oh child!"

And it doesn't even matter If the danger and the doom Come from up above or down below Or just come flying at you from across the room

When you see a man who's raging And he's jealous and he fears That you've walked through walls He's hid behind for years What you do then Is you tell yourself to wait it out And say "It's this day, not me That's bound to go away"

Child, oh hold on It's this day, not you That's bound to go away

When Mame discovers that her nephew Patrick has married a debutante from a bigoted family, she wonders what went wrong.
View Lyrics
MAME Where is that boy with the bugle? My little love was always my big romance; Where's that boy with the bugle? And why did I ever buy him those damn long pants?
Did he need a stronger hand? Did he need a lighter touch? Was I soft or was I tough? Did I give enough? Did I give too much?
At the moment when he needed me, Did I ever turn away? Would I be there when he called, If he walked into my life today.
Were his days a little dull? Were his nights a little wild? Did I overstate my plan? Did I stress the man? And forget the child. And there must have been a million things. That my heart forgot to say. Would I think of one or two, If he walked into my life today.
Should I blame the times I pampered him, Or blame the times I bossed him; What a shame! I never really found the boy, Before I lost him.
Were the years a little fast? Was his world a little free? Was there too much of a crowd? All too lush and loud and not enough for me. Though I'll ask myself my whole life long, What went wrong along the way; Would I make the same mistakes If he walked into my life today? If that boy with the bugle, If he walked into my life today.

Anyone can whistle, That's what they say- Easy. Anyone can whistle Any old day- Easy. It's all so simple: Relax, let go, let fly. So someone tell me why can't I?
I can dance a tango, I can read Greek- Easy. I can slay a dragon Any old week- Easy. What's hard is simple. What's natural comes hard.
Maybe you could show me How to let go, Lower my guard, Learn to be free. Maybe if you whistle, Whistle for me.

Sharon explains her father's theory behind following dreams.
View Lyrics
On the day I was born, said my father, said he, I've an elegant legacy waiting for ye. Tis a rhyme for your lips and a song for your heart, To sing whenever the world falls apart.

Look, look, look to the rainbow. Follow it over the hill and stream. Look, look, look to the rainbow. Follow the fellow who follows a dream. Follow the fellow, follow the fellow, Follow the fellow who follows a dream.

'Twas a sumptuous gift bequeathed to a child. Oh, the lure of that song Kept her feet running wild. For you never grow old and you never stand still With a whippoorwill singing beyond the next hill.

So, I bundled me heart and I roamed the world free. To the east with the lark Tow the west with the sea. And I searched all the world and I scanned all the skies. But I found it at last in my own true love's eyes.

I hear a bird, Londonderry bird, It well may be he's bringing me a cheering word. I hear a breeze, a River Shanon breeze, It well may be it's followed me across the seas. Then tell me please

How are things in Glocca Morra? Is that little brook still leaping there? Does it still run down to Donny cove? Through Killybegs, Kilkerry and Kildare?

How are things in Glocca Morra? Is that willow tree still weeping there? Does that lassie with the twinklin' eye Come smilin' by and does she walk away,

Sad and dreamy there not to see me there? So I ask each weepin' willow and each brook along the way, And each lass that comes a-sighin' too ra lay How are things in Glocca Morra this fine day?

Josh's mother becomes more aware of how fast Billy and the other kids have grown.
View Lyrics
MRS. BASKIN Two months old, he looks up at you How his smile melts your heart You want to say, "Stop, time" Don't move on Even as you watch that look is gone
Then he's two, such a little man So alive and so smart Again you say, "Stop, time" Stay just this way But the future comes and he can't stay
Nobody warns you of this parent's paradox You want your kid to change and grow But when he does, another child you've just begun to know Leaves forever
Birthdays fly - 7, 8, 9, 10 Every kid he becomes you clutch and say "Stop, time" Hold this one fast But it's not supposed to last And that time has come and passed For he's growing And he has to go
If I had only stopped the clock four weeks ago Somehow had frozen time right there He'd still be here, I'd see his face I'd hold him in my arms Safe forever It can't be that he's reached thirteen
Now the real changes start But he's not here "Stop, time" Don't rush life so Bring him back And then I'll let him go

Before you half remember what her smile was like, Before you half recall the day you found her, Kiss her now, while she's young, Kiss her now, while she's yours, Kiss her now, while she needs your arms around her.
For if you let a moment come between you now, It soon becomes a day, a year, a lifetime, Blink your eye, turn your head, and you've lost her. And you'll spend half your life wond'ring how. So before you forget how you loved her,
Kiss her now, Kiss her now, Kiss her now.

Before you half remember what her smile was like, Before you half recall the day you found her, Kiss her now, while she's young, Kiss her now, while she's yours, Kiss her now, while she needs your arms around her.

For if you let a moment come between you now, It soon becomes a day, a year, a lifetime, Blink your eye, turn your head, and you've lost her. And you'll spend half your life wond'ring how. So before you forget how you loved her,

Kiss her now, Kiss her now, Kiss her now.

Queenie tells Mr. Black that she has become used to Burr's brutish behavior.
View Lyrics
QUEENIE I know it's wrong I know he's rough I don't know what to do But we've been through enough I know it's time And yet I play Maybe I like it this way.

I see his pain I hear his cry He pulls me to the edge But I don't ask him why I understand And I obey Maybe I like it this way.

I like the way he laughs His strange and silent stare I like the way he moves The way he's always there The way he calls my name The way he takes control I like the way this man has stirred my soul:

"When I first met Burrs, he was grand. You understand? But I was scared and awfully lonely. Hungry. And hopeful. How could I know?"

Maybe tomorrow it comes crashing down Maybe next week I'll find another clown Maybe I'll try to go a different way But look who's sitting here today.

If I could change If I could grow I'd ask for nothing more And through that door I'd go But if I'm through Why do I stay?

Maybe he wants me Maybe he needs me Maybe he loves me Maybe I like it this way.

Taken from a song cycle that centers around loss of loved ones from 9/11.
View Lyrics
Any time you laugh Any time you cry Any time you hear a sound When you`re on the grass Lying on the ground Any time you wash your hands I`ll be around

I`ll be there on the baseball field Though I`m well concealed I`ll be out there cheering I`ll be there in the books you read It is guaranteed I`m not disappearing fast Any time No not any time

And I am there each morning I am there each fall I am present without warning And I`m watching it all Yes I`m watching it all Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh And I am there in music I am there in sky I don`t why this thing did happen But this much is clear Any time or anywhere I am there

Any time you pray Any time you fight Any time you`ve gained a pound Any time it`s day Any time it`s night Any time the earth moves I`ll be around

I`ll be there in the maple trees I`m a summer breeze On a perfect evening I`ll be there when you celebrate When the world seems great I`ll be waiting by your side Any time Yes! Any time

And I am there each morning I am there each fall I present without warning And I`m watching it all Yes I`m watching it all Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

And I am there in flowers I am there in snow I don`t know why this thing happened But this much is clear Any time you cry Any time you sing For anything I`ll be there Each morning I`ll be there each fall I don`t why this thing happened But this much is clear

Be aware I am there I am there I am there I am there

I am there I am there I am there

Father, who has been summoned to assist Coalhouse, assures Mother that everything will soon return to the way it was before. Mother, however, is not convinced.
View Lyrics
There was a time Our happiness seemed never-ending I was so sure That where we were heading was right Life was a road So certain and straight and unbending Our little road With never a cross road in sight Back in the days When we spoke in civilized voices Women in white And sturdy young men at the oar Back in the days When I let you make all my choices... We can never go back to before

There was a time My feet were so solidly planted You'd sail away While I turned my back to the sea I was content, A princess asleep and enchanted If I had dreams Then I let you dream them for me Back in the days When everything seemed so much clearer Women in white Who knew what their lives held in store Where are they now, Those women who stared from the mirror? We can never go back to before.

There are people out there Unafraid of revealing That they might have a feeling Or they might have been wrong There are people out there Unafraid to feel sorrow, unafraid of tomorrow, unafraid to be weak... unafraid to be strong!

There was a time When you were the person in motion I was your wife, It never occurred to want more You were my sky My moon and my stars and my ocean We can never go back to before We can never go back to before

Although the prostitute Lucy is perceived as kind-hearted, she often has moments of deep, dark contemplation about her life.
View Lyrics
LUCY: Look at me, And tell me who I am. Why I am What I am.
Call me a fool, And it's true I am. I don't know Who I am.
It's such a shame, I'm such a sham. No one knows Who I am.
Am I the face of the future? Am I the face of the past? Am I the one who must finish last?
Look at me, And tell me who I am, Why I am What I am.
Will I survive? Who will give a damn, If no one knows Who I am?
Nobody knows - Not even you - No one knows who I am...

Mina, who is strangely attracted to Count Dracula, begs for him not to coax her into romance unless he truly loves her.
View Lyrics
There only so much That a heart can take Before it starts to break

Please don’t make me love you Please don’t make me need you I’ve no room in my life For something like this

Please don’t take my mornings Please don’t steal my summers I know they will vanish The moment we kiss

I grow weak when we talk I’m confused when we touch I should just walk away But that’s asking too much

Please don’t make me do this Please don’t make me want this All my drams were taken Until i met you

You’re the one I think of Soon as I awaken Funny how the heart tells The mind what to do

I’m not sure I can go through all The joy and the pain Much better now To let these dreams take flight!

Please don’t make me love you Please don’t make me need you Simplify my life By just setting me free

Promise me you’ll do this Only you can do this Please don’t make me love you Unless you love me

SWALLOW If all we lost somehow came back If all that died again would grow If only it was so, these are the loneliest words I know If all our dreams were golden and never black or grey If all our dreams came true, then we'd never have to say If only it was so, these are the loneliest words I know
THE MAN If all we'd lost somehow came back If all that died again would grow If only it were so, these are the loneliest words I know The stage lowers to reveal Candy and Amos on the highway. Amos has been beaten by his father again for refusing to work at the factory. They sing Tire tracks and broken hearts.

Diane tries to move past the platonic stage of her relationship with Chuck.
View Lyrics
Well, pop the champagne, break out the cologne; turn up the moonlight and turn off the phone. Well, what a surprise, a man is in sight; and I will be loved tonight.
To fondle his skin, to savor his lips; to nuzzle his chin, to movie with his hips. our words will be soft as we softly ignite; and I will be loved tonight.
You can go from week to week, you can go from year to year; not a hand placed on your cheek, not a whisper in your ear. You can make it through okay, you can live and laugh, and flirt. It's quite easy in the day; it's just the nights that always hurt.
So let darkness come, 'cause that will be fine; for I'll have a soul entangled in mine. We'll do as we please, and please... hold me tight. For I will be loved, I will be loved. Yes, I will be loved tonight.

Claire explains to Jason her romantic past with a man who died in the 9/11 attacks.
View Lyrics
We met, of all places, In front of Gristedes some freakishly cold winters day. I had on several unflattering layers of wool. He slipped on the ice with his grocery bags full, So I rescued some Fruit Loops he dropped by the curb And he made some remark that my smile was superb I thought that was sweet and I started to go and he said "Hey, whatcha doing tomorrow?'

'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.

PAM
I said I'd fill my life with you.
One look and what else could I do.
That smile that lights your face washed into every secret space
And made me see a better me inside of me.
And when a gift like that comes through
I have to thank my stars forever.
And so I'll stay with you and fill each day with you
And always know that I'd complete
In every way with you.
NICK
I said I'd fill my life with you.
One look and what else could I do.
It only took one touch and somehow
You unlocked so much
And made me see a stronger me inside of me
And when a gift like that comes through
I have to thank the stars forever.

The actress Marguerite cannot understand her husband Percy's change in behavior.
View Lyrics
When I look at you
What I always see Is the face of someone else
Who once belonged to me Still I can hear him laugh And even though that melody plays on,
He's gone
When I look at you
He is standing there I can almost breathe him in
Like summer in the air Why do you smile his smile? That heaven I'd forgotten eases through,
In you
If you could look at me once more With all the love you felt before If you and I could disappear into the past And find that love we knew I'd never take my eyes away from you
When I look at you,
He is touching me I would reach for him,
But who can hold a memory? And love isn't everything That moonlight on the bed will melt away,
Someday
Oh, you were once that someone Who I followed like a star Then suddenly you changed, And now I don't know who you are Or could it be
That I never really knew you from the start?
Did I create a dream? Was he a fantasy? Even a memory is paradise for all the fools like me Now, remembering is all that I can do Because I miss him so,
When I look at you

Is it the wind, over my shoulder? Is it the wind that I hear gently whispering? Are you alone, there in the valley? No not alone for you walk, you walk with me

Is it the wind there, over my shoulder? Is it your voice calling quietly? Over the hilltop, down in the valley Never alone for you walk with me

When evening falls and the air gets colder When shadows cover the road I am following Will I be alone there in the darkness? No, not alone, not alone and I'll never be

Never alone you are walking You're walking with me

Is it the wind there, over my shoulder? Is it your voice calling quietly? Over the hilltop, down in the valley Never alone for you walk with me Over the hilltop, down in the valley Never alone for you walk with me

Never alone for you walk with me
