2023 Broadway revival Parade the Musical - Do It Alone Lyrics
LUCILLE: Do it alone, Leo - do it all by yourself. You're the only one who matters after all. Do it alone, Leo - why should it bother me? I'm just good for standing in the shadows And staring at the walls, Leo. Fight them, strong and proud - Pray your voice is loud, Loud enough to make it through that door. What on earth have I been worried for? Soon I won't be worried anymore.
LEO: Lucille, how can you say that?
LUCILLE: No, do it alone, Leo - now there's the right idea Make me feel as useless as you always have. Do it alone, Leo - what could a woman do? After all, so many people love you, They're dancing in the streets, Leo. Only you know how To change the future now - No one knows the pain you're going through - No one else is suffering but you. I could be a quiet little girl And cook your little meal, And swallow all I feel, And bow to your command; Or I could start to screa, Across the whole damned South And never shut my mouth Until they understand.
But I can't do it alone, Leo. Look at me now, Leo. I can be more: I can bring you home, Leo. We can bring you home, Leo. I want you to come home.
