Those You'Ve Known (Original Broadway Cast Recording/2006)

MORITZ: Those you've known
And lost still walk behind you
All alone
They linger till they find you
Without them
The world grows dark around you
And nothing is the same
Until you know that they have found you

WENDLA: Those you've pained
May carry that still with them
All the same
They whisper "All forgiven"
Still your heart says
The shadows bring the starlight
And everything you've ever been
Is still there in the dark night

MORITZ: Though you know (WENDLA: When the)
You've left them far behind (Northern wind blows)
You walk on by yourself (The sorrows)
And not with them (Your heart holds)
Still you know (There are)
They'll fill (Those)
Your heart and mind (Who still know)
When they say (They're still)
There's a way through this (Home)
WENDLA: We're still home

MELCHIOR, MORITZ & WENDLA: Those you've known
And lost still walk behind you
All alone
Their song still seems to find you
They call you
As if you knew their longing
They whistle through the lonely wind
The long blue shadows falling

MELCHIOR: All alone
But still I hear their yearning
Through the dark
The moon, alone there, burning
The stars too
They tell of spring returning
And summer with another wind
That no one yet has known

MORITZ: Though you know (MORITZ: They call me)
There's so much more to find
(Through all things)
Another dream,
Another love you'll hold (Night's falling, but somehow on I go)
WENDLA: I believe
MORITZ: Still you know (MELCHIOR: You watch me)
To trust your own true mind (Just watch me)
On your way you are not alone (I'm calling)
MELCHIOR: From longing (WENDLA: We're still home)

Now they'll walk on my arm through the distant night
And I won't let them stray from my heart
Through the wind, through the dark, through the winter light
I will read all their dreams to the stars
I'll walk now with them
I'll call on their names
And I'll see their thoughts are known
Not gone
Not gone
They walk with my heart (WENDLA: Not gone)
And I'll never let them go (Not gone)
I'll never let them go (Not gone)
I'll never let them go.

You watch me
Just watch me
I'm calling
I'm calling
And one day all will know.
