“LEAVE THE PAST BEHIND”

JENNIFER

All my life I’ve had my dreams

And all along it really seemed

That you and I would share our goals,

But on the way I lost my soul.

I am sitting here with me today

These are my final words to say

You are gone; but I’m still here

I was lost inside my fear.

SO I HAVE TO

LEAVE THE PAST BEHIND

AND FIND THE WAY

TO MAKE UP FOR LOST TIME

I’LL CONTINUE ON MY WAY

MUST MAKE AMENDS

AND START TO FACE TOMORROW

EVEN THROUGH THE PAIN

AS I START MY LIFE ALONE

FOR ME ALONE TODAY

(PATTY/NEITH walks into LIGHT.)

patty/NEITH

I live my days without you here

Make up for all the times we feared

NOW you can finally go

And BE where you belong.

As I give this world to you

I’m sorry for what we’ve been through

Run hard, run wild—run free

What life was meant to be—

JENNIFER & patty/NEITH

SO I HAVE TO

LEAVE THE PAST BEHIND

AND FIND THE WAY

TO MAKE UP FOR LOST TIME

I’LL CONTINUE ON MY WAY

MUST MAKE AMENDS

AND START TO FACE TOMORROW

EVEN THROUGH THE PAIN

AS I START MY LIFE ALONE

FOR ME ALONE------ TODAY

JENNIFER

IT’S TIME TO FACE THE TRUTH AND SEE

I HAVE NOTHING NOW TO HIDE

FOR I AM TIRED I WON’T GROWN OLD

LIVING LIFE AS I WAS TOLD

AND AS I LEAVE I WON’T LOOK BACK

I CAN’T SAY THAT I BLAME YOU

I FOUND THE STRENGTH I DON’T KNOW HOW

I MUST GO AND START LIFE NOW

nEITH & jENNIFER WITH COMPANY

SO I HAVE TO LEAVE THE PAST BEHIND

AND FIND THE WAY

TO MAKE UP FOR LOST TIME

I’LL CONTINUE ON MY WAY

MUST MAKE AMENDS

AND START TO FACE TOMORROW

EVEN THRU THE PAIN

JENNIFER

AS I START MY LIFE ALONE

IT IS JUST FOR ME ALONE

patty/NEITH

NOW I’M REALLY ON MY OWN

WHAT LIES AHEAD IS THE UNKNOWN

JENNIFER & patty/NEITH AND COMPANY

WHAT IT WILL BE WILL BE SHOWN

FOR ME ALONE

TODAY!
