Peter's Denial - Andrew Lloyd Webber, "Jesus Christ Superstar" 1996 London Cast

I think I’ve seen you somewhere, I remember

You were with that man they took away

I recognize your face

You’ve got the wrong man, lady, I don’t know him

And I wasn’t where he was tonight — never near the place

That’s strange, for I’m sure I saw you with him

You were right by his side, and yet you denied —

I tell you, I was never, ever with him

But I saw you too — it looked just like you

I don’t know him!

Peter — don’t you know what you have said?

You’ve gone and cut him dead

I had to do it, don’t you see?

Or else they’d go for me

That’s what he told us you would do —

I wonder how he knew …
