CAPTAIN CREWE
So intent now is your gaze
And your fingers as they trace
Tears washing this new face
Are you afraid time will wash me
From your memories?
CARRISFORD
I seem recognize these eyes
SARA
I see him in your smile
He’ll be with me all the while
Like my fav’rite poetry,
He’ll live in my memory.
SARA & CAPTAIN CREWE
Committed to my heart
Like a poem that I’ll share
Like a poem I’ll recite
All my life, with great care
CAPTAIN CREWE
So intent now is your gaze…
CARRISFORD
I want…no, need
To look on your face as you grow
Watch your precious life unfold
To still know you when I’m old
CARRISFORD & CREWE
Like a song that never ends,
This time’s a promise among friends
Committed to our hearts
Life’s a poem that we shared
Like a verse that we learned
Through our lives, we still cared
CAPTAIN CREWE
No need to stay stuck fast in the past
Or the sweet, sweet memories that were
No, go on living, that you’ll reassure
SARA (To Crewe)
You’re always here inside of me,
Like my favorite poetry
SARA & CARRISFORD
Committed to our hearts
Like a poem we both know
Like a poem we’ll recite
All our lives, even though…
CAPTAIN CREWE
I must go
SARA & CARRISFORD & CAPTAIN CREWE
Now I know
SARA & CARRISFORD
Though we know he’s gone
Through us he lives on
SARA & CARRISFORD & CAPTAIN CREWE
Committed to my heart
