Original Broadway Cast
—The Proposal
ROCHESTER TALKING IN ALL CAPS: MUSICAL EDITION
GOD FORGIVE ME, YOU ARE NOT GETTING AWAY FROM ME!
IF I HAD A STRING UNDER MY RIBS
KNOTTED TO YOU, CONNECTING OUR FRAMES
I’D BE AFRAID THAT MANY A MILE
WOULD SEVER THE TIE
AND I WOULD TAKE TO BLEEDING INWARDLY
ARE YOU MY SAVIOR, ARE YOU MY SAINT
PROTECTING MY SOUL
WITH COMMUNION AND LIGHT?
STAND AS MY EQUAL, BE MY REWARD
SLAY CUSTOM AND CODE
WITH LOVE AS YOUR SWORD
CHILDISH, SLENDER CREATURE
MY HOPE OF HEAVEN LIES
INSIDE YOUR EYES
I HEAR YOUR CHERISHED VOICE
ACROSS THE MOORLAND SKIES
WILL I NOT GUARD AND CHERISH YOU
AS LONG AS I SHALL LIVE?
WILL I NOT SANCTION YOU
WILL ALL THE LOVE MY HEART CAN GIVE?
AND I WASH MY HANDS
OF EVERY YOUTHFUL CRIME
DEFY THEM ALL
GOD WILL GIVE ME TIME
AND YOU WILL LEAD ME, BLIND.
