lily
why am i even considering this?

[bruce]
don’t sign it!

[lily]
is it the two hundred thousand dollars?
no. it’s more than that!
it’s something else
something else…

hear my heart hammer
feel my pulse quicken
he and i once again
together
watch my hands tremble
hear my voice thicken
dare we fly once again
together?

i got along without him
felt sure and strong without him
i had to find a way to live my life alone
i called my life my own
but how could i have known

that love from way back when
would flood my heart again
that he’d walk in
and i’d hear strings begin
to pull me back
to where i’d been
i mustn’t go
and yet i know i’m going…

deep sweet old feelings
wild long lost longings
he and i here we are
together
every sign warns me
every breath cries beware
but i don’t care!

since we parted, empty days
made up what i’d call my life
now he’ll fill those empty days
from now on and all my life together
he and i together
he and i…

hey lily
stop! be smart!
say no, you can’t go back
to long ago
you can’t go back!

[owen, oliver, oscar]
you must come back!

[lily]
you can’t go back!

[owen, oliver, oscar]
you must come back!

[lily]
you can’t go back!
