Bare - Cast Recording

Do you remember the day that you met me?

I swear it was yesterday.

I knew with a glance

That you were the question and you were the answer

That the world would make sense again if I held your hand

Someday you’ll look back, and I hope you’ll remember

The moment of truth when I knew who I was

How did I learn the truth you gave to me?

I will always remember that first stolen moment:

There you were kissing me, and time seemed to freeze

Now I stand at a crossroad and I stare at a question

If prayer were the answer I’d fall on my knees

But forward is calling and I cannot stay here—

A parting of souls as I try to move on

How do I forget the dream you shared with me?

I’ve never been this bare

I’ve never been so scared

I’ve never felt such honesty

Doubts that will never go away

A moment of such peace

Each of us standing bare

Knowing what you mean to me

Knowing who we have to be

Know as you hold my hand

I hope and pray

That you’ll understand

We’re forever, you and I…

I know you’re here in my heart

Please understand that I tried

Try to see it’s not goodbye

The act is beginning, the audience’s waiting

No, stay in this moment, where secrets reveal

Here in a world where there’s safety in falsehood

I have discovered the one thing that’s real

That I love you and I loved you from the start

And if you hold that close to you, we’ll never be apart

Peter, please know I loved you…

God, I love you

From the start
