| [00:08.529] | I was the girl in the bubble at school |
| [00:13.257] | Behind my own personal wall for protection |
| [00:17.123] | I’d sit there alone like a fool |
| [00:21.120] | I never was able to make a connection |
| [00:25.012] | Then one day I tried out for the play |
| [00:28.852] | I’ll never forget it |
| [00:30.811] | A flea in her ear |
| [00:32.823] | And I was suddenly someone with something to say |
| [00:36.689] | Making a sound everybody could hear |
| [00:40.555] | And suddenly everything makes some sense |
| [00:44.526] | Then I saw this guy in the audience |
| [00:48.444] | And there was John |
| [00:51.396] | Fifth row on the aisle |
| [00:52.963] | With a big smile on |
| [00:56.307] | And after the show he came backstage |
| [01:01.270] | And now that this birdie was out of her cage |
| [01:05.894] | Well, everything was okay |
| [01:11.327] | We date for a year, then we’re cohabitating |
| [01:15.376] | Then I get a big chance to take the next step |
| [01:19.869] | Away from a job I was hating |
| [01:23.762] | And into a slot in the regional rep |
| [01:27.262] | In rehearsal all day after day after day |
| [01:31.624] | Creating and playing in play after play |
| [01:35.569] | And night after night, igniting the spark |
| [01:39.461] | Connecting with all of those folk in the dark |
| [01:45.365] | And John was there |
| [01:48.421] | There with a smile and his hands in the air |
| [01:53.280] | Clapping for me and back home we’d go |
| [01:58.243] | Happy together for eight or nine hours or so |
| [02:02.971] | And everything was okay |
| [02:07.020] | And then I’d be gone again |
| [02:10.860] | This life takes everything you give it |
| [02:14.674] | Like a puppy or a kid |
| [02:17.600] | But if you really love it, you live it |
| [02:21.466] | And that’s what I did |
| [02:25.306] | Played Carousel on the road for the winter |
| [02:29.747] | From April to June, I toured Cabaret |
| [02:32.882] | Then Mother Courage in stock in New England all summer |
| [02:37.636] | And John tried to call almost every day |
| [02:41.606] | He told me he wanted some kids and a wife |
| [02:45.446] | And that’s when I realized |
| [02:47.667] | This is my life |
| [02:49.522] | I’d made my choice but I never expressed it |
| [02:53.492] | And when I got home |
| [02:54.929] | Can you guess? |
| [02:56.183] | Yeah, I guessed it |
| [02:58.142] | John was gone |
| [03:01.355] | Everything on the left of the closet was gone |
| [03:06.083] | His electric guitar, and his amp, and his car were gone |
| [03:11.856] | Just “poof” |
| [03:13.006] | There I was standing under a roof alone |
| [03:17.708] | And yes, my heart was almost broken |
| [03:21.783] | But I’d made my choice and I’d make it again |
| [03:25.544] | And now, where’s John? |
| [03:28.784] | I think Portland, Maine or maybe it’s Oregon |
| [03:33.251] | With a kid and a wife |
| [03:34.870] | And here is me |
| [03:38.449] | Another dressing room number one thousand and three |
| [03:43.438] | Exactly where I should be |
| [03:47.409] | Exactly where we should be |
| [03:51.380] | And everything’s okay |
