| After reading 'Neverland', I thought this might work (with slightly different vocal phrasing), just before Wendy is visited by Peter for the first time. She is at her window, staring out into the abyss of night, yearning for something 'new'... Spoken (with a sadness): The sea watches the sky, the sky watches the sea Will anything ever happen? The ebb & the flow, the to & the fro Will anything ever happen? I’m so numb & emtpy, tired & cold Same old, same old...will anything ever happen? (loud)Kyrie Eleison! (softer)Kyrie Eleison... I don’t care about life after death, just a sign that there’s a life after birth? Send me an angel just to kick-start a reaction, a first-sight attraction, to make my heart beat faster than ever before...to make me feel ALIVE AGAIN! (whispered): a renegade angel lord, a renegade angel... Sung: Angels Arise, as night must fall An renegade eyes stare down on my soul How I yearn for his touch, yearn for his hunger Oh angels arise, as the night will always fall An for every heart so lonely There’s a star that shines so bright Burning brighter than a beacon of love Through the dark & endless, cold relentless night Angels Arise, as night must fall Say a prayer and light a candle, toll a bell How I long to be free, free of all these chains Oh angels arise, save me from this living hell There are things that must be magic There’s no explaining why or how Just give me one little sign that once upon a time Is starting here & now Just give me one little sign that once upon a time Is starting right here & now... I can see the song reprised later in the show (with slightly different lyrics) as Wendy sings to the Lost Boys around a camp fire to alay their fears (don't ask me why): Sung: Angels arise as night must fall And radiant eyes stare down on us all How we long to be free, free of all these fears Oh angels arise, as the night must surely fall And for every heart so lonely There’s a star that shines so bright Burning brighter than a beacon of love Through the dark & endless, cold relentless, night Angels arise as night must fall Say a prayer and light a candle, toll a bell How we long to be free, free of all this pain Oh angels arise, free us from this living hell There are things that must be magic There’s no explaining why or how And there’s every sign that once upon a time Is starting here & now There’s every sign that once upon a time Is starting right her & now... | |
