JOANNA
ONE YESTERDAY AGO, QUICKLY COME AND GONE;
HERE IN TWILIGHT’S GLOW WE SEEK ANOTHER DAWN.
AS YOU GO I PRAY JUST FOR ONE MORE DAY
TOGETHER...

ALEC
ONE YESTERDAY AGO, STILL THE SUNLIGHT FALLS,
SOFTLY ON THE ROSE THAT BLOOMS WITHIN THESE WALLS.
HERE OUR HEARTS ENTWINE ON A LOVER’S VINE
EVERYTHING I DO WILL SHOW YOU YOU’RE...
THE ONE THAT I ADORE.

JOANNA
AMIDST THE WINTER’S SNOW,

AS ALL WE LOVE GROWS OLD,

WHEN WILL WE FEEL THE SUN...

THEN TOMORROW WE WILL HOLD...


ALEC (overlapping)
THOUGH BITTER WINDS MAY BLOW,

OUR LOVE WILL NOT GROW COLD.

...THE SUN WILL RISE AND
THEN TOMMOROW WE WILL HOLD...

JOANNA
ONE YESTERDAY AGO...

ALEC
ONE YESTERDAY AGO...

JOANNA
I WANTED YOU TO KNOW...

ALEC
I REMEMBER IT WAS SO...

JOANNA & ALEC
I DREAMED THAT YOU’D BE MINE, THEN YOU WERE MINE
ONE YESTERDAY AGO AND EVERMORE...
YOU’RE THE ONE THAT I ADORE.
