My Green Light Lyrics

2023 Paper Mill Playhouse
The Great Gatsby the Musical - My Green Light Lyrics


The song is written by Jason Howland and Nathan Tysen.

GATSBY:
Can you see through the mist,
Look out this way,
Can you see the green light,
Just across the bay?
Sometimes it's winking,
Sometimes it's warning,
Blinking its message
To me until morning
It's a lighthouse,
It's a signal flare
Stay back, come quick, move on,
Stay there

Only we know
What we're going through
If I save you,
Will you save me too?

Can you see through the mist,
Look, across the bay?
Can you see the green light?
It's yours, Daisy...

DAISY:
That's my dock!

GATSBY:
That's why I bought this land,
Facing the dock... this way...
I never waivered, Daisy -
I've been building toward
This moment eversince we last met

DAISY:
I thought you disappeared,
Thought you were gone
Buried you in my heart as I moved on
I had this feeling as I was falling
The sound 'cross the bay
Was the sound of you calling
Like a foghorn, like a siren song
Retreat, return, be lost, belong

Only heaven knows what I might do
If I save you,
Will you save me too?

GATSBY:
Save me too?

BOTH:
My green light
Blinking permission, sending a call
Granting admission, follow the law (? road)
Wrong or right, my green light

DAISY:
We should go inside...
I thought you disappeared,
Thought you were gone

GATSBY:
Buried you in my heart as I carried on

DAISY:
Buried you in my heart as I moved on

GATSBY:
As I moved on

BOTH:
I had this feeling,
As I was falling
The sound 'cross the bay
Was the sound of you calling
You're a lighthouse,
You're a signal flare
There's love and danger everywhere
Only we know what we've both been through
If I save you, will you save me too?
Save me too...
Save me...
(kiss kiss)
Save me too
