As If We Never Said Goodbye - Patti LuPone, Andrew Lloyd Webber

I don’t know why I’m frightened: I know my way around here

The cardboard trees, the painted seas, the sound here…

Yes, a world to rediscover

But I’m not in any hurry

And I need a moment

The whispered conversations in overcrowded hallways

The atmosphere, as thrilling here as always

Feel the early morning madness

Feel the magic in the making

Why, everything’s as if we never said goodbye

I’ve spent so many mornings just trying to resist you

I’m trembling now, you can’t know how I’ve missed you

Missed the fairy tale adventure

In this ever-spinning playground

We were young together

I’m coming out of make-up, the lights already burning

Not long until the cameras will start turning…

And the early morning madness

And the magic in the making

Yes, everything’s as if we never said goodbye

I don’t want to be alone, that’s all in the past

This world’s waited long enough: I’ve come home at last!

And this time will be bigger and brighter than we knew it

So watch me fly, we all know I can do it…

Could I stop my hands from shaking?

Has there ever been a moment

With so much to live for?

The whispered conversations in overcrowded hallways

So much to say, not just today, but always…

We’ll have early morning madness

We’ll have magic in the making

Yes, everything’s as if we never said goodbye

Yes, everything’s as if we never said goodbye…

We taught the world new ways to dream!
