Kimberly Akimbo - Before I Go Lyrics |
2022 Broadway Kimberly Akimbo the Musical - Before I Go Lyrics
Music by Jeanine Tesori and lyrics by David Lindsay-Abaire.
KIM: I was never the daughter you wanted That's the thing we never say But that’s the truth and that's okay We live in a house that's haunted There’s always you, there's always me And there's the ghost of a girl I'll never be
There's the ghost of a girl I'll never be Before I go, let go of the ghost Just let her disappear And then maybe you'll see me While I'm still here I’m still here
I was never the girl you intended She was young and she was bold She’d hold your hand when you got old Let's admit, the dream has ended And what you wished for wasn’t me It was the ghost of a girl I'll never be
She's the ghost of a girl I'll never be Before I go, let’s give up the ghost Just he with me instead I know I might be dying But I'm not dead I'm not dead
So before I go, take my hand Before I fly away, say goodbye I will go somewhere that's beautiful I'll go somewhere that's beautiful It's time let me go
PATTI: Father Time
KIM: Let me go
PATTI: Slow down the day
KIM: Let me fly away
PATTI: Don't let the dark come in
BUDDY: You have your whole live
PATTI: Steal it away
KIM: It's time
PATTI: For goodness sake
BUDDY: Your whole life
PATTI: You're still awake
BUDDY: See the world See the world See the world
PATTI: And baby wants to play And baby wants to play
KIM: Oh Dear Make a Wish Foundation of New Jersey As you probably know by now My name is Kimberly Levaco Thank you for the treehouse But I don't need a treehouse I'm gonna bungee jump I'm gonna jet ski I'm gonna hang glide and clog dance And swim at the bottom of a waterfall In New Zealand
I'll see the world See the world See the world Smiley face
