The World Was Dancing

The World Was Dancing - Brooks Ashmanskas/Songs for a New World Ensemble[00:00:00]

Written by:Jason Robert Brown[00:00:02]

Producer:Jeffrey Lesser[00:00:04]

Tomorrow you'll be here my love[00:00:15]

Tomorrow we'll be one[00:00:19]

Tomorrow we can follow through[00:00:22]

On all that we've begun[00:00:26]

Tomorrow we'll be free my love[00:00:29]

We'll never be afraid[00:00:33]

Daddy bought a store out in pittsburgh[00:00:46]

And he called his boss and quit[00:00:49]

And we tried to convince him[00:00:52]

The risk was too much[00:00:54]

But he still was convinced[00:00:56]

Of his own midas touch[00:00:57]

So he bought this piece of sh*t[00:00:59]

I packed up and went off to princeton[00:01:10]

With a scholarship in hand[00:01:13]

Well I'd call up my folks every weekend or so[00:01:16]

And I'd tell them how college was helping me grow[00:01:20]

Which was just what they had planned[00:01:23]

And then I met this girl named Amy[00:01:26]

With a smile as bright as day[00:01:30]

And while the pirates beat the Orioles[00:01:33]

We fell in love and danced the night away[00:01:36]

Tomorrow we'll be free my love[00:01:41]

We'll never be afraid[00:01:44]

And we were dancing[00:01:48]

The world was dancing[00:01:55]

Dancing[00:02:02]

Daddy lost his shirt out in pittsburgh[00:02:14]

As my sophomore year rolled round[00:02:16]

Well he had hired some schmuck[00:02:19]

That he knew from the war[00:02:21]

And one weekend he left him[00:02:23]

In charge of the store[00:02:25]

And he burned it to the ground[00:02:27]

And then I met this girl named Lisa[00:02:30]

On a couch at Alpha-Mu[00:02:33]

But then she transferred to macalester[00:02:37]

So it's just as well that Amy never knew[00:02:40]

Tomorrow we'll be free my love[00:02:44]

We'll never be afraid[00:02:48]

And we were dancing[00:02:52]

The world was dancing[00:02:59]

Dancing[00:03:06]

Daddy got his job back that summer[00:03:40]

So he hid his pride and pain[00:03:43]

And they threw him a party[00:03:46]

And baked him a cake[00:03:48]

And they sent me a ticket[00:03:50]

To come winter break[00:03:51]

But I guess I missed the plane[00:03:53]

And since I'd spent so long with Amy[00:03:56]

We got ourselves engaged[00:04:00]

But then I thought[00:04:03]

I can't[00:04:04]

This can't be right[00:04:05]

Cause dreams get burned down overnight[00:04:07]

I wasn't quite prepared to choose[00:04:11]

To take that risk and maybe lose[00:04:13]

And since I couldn't tell her why[00:04:17]

I hit the road[00:04:20]

And never said goodbye[00:04:22]

Tomorrow you'll be here my love[00:04:24]

Tomorrow we'll be one[00:04:28]

Tomorrow we can follow through[00:04:31]

On all that we've begun[00:04:35]

Tomorrow we'll be free my love[00:04:38]

We'll never be[00:04:42]

Afraid[00:04:45]

And I was dancing[00:04:49]

And I was dancing[00:04:51]

And they were dancing[00:04:57]

And I was dancing[00:05:00]

The world was dancing[00:05:04]

Dancing[00:05:17]
