Frohman: I can feel it
Anticipation in the air
Something just beyond compare
To any other night I swear
I can feel my heart is
Beating much too fast
No more looking to the past
Could this be the one at last?
Frohman and Elliot: Oh, all the years I have waited for this
One night ist everything
I can't be certain
But something is different
I'm sure
I have
Never felt like this before!
Actors: Something about this night
That I cannot express
Excitement or nervousness
How it ends, I couldn't guess
But there is something about this night
That I just can't ignore
All the sweat and tears and more
Have made this all worth fighting for
If there is one chance this could be
The one to beat our expectation
Frohman: Something about this night
Actors: Oh, something about this night!
Barrie: At the start of the show when nobody knows
Just what to expect or believe
The tension is high
And the silence is loud
And it's getting much harder to breathe
Peter: I'm so proud of what you created
After all the time you have waited
Peter and Barrie: I wanted to say
But the words wouldn't come out right
It must be something about this night
Actors: Something about this night
That I just can't ignore
All the sweat and tears and more
Have made this all worth fighting for
If there is one chance this could be
The one for every generation
Something about this night
Oh something about this night
Oh something about this night!
