[MIDDLE NOAH, spoken]
I have some pie, you want some pie?
[MIDDLE ALLIE, spoken]
Sure
[MIDDLE ALLIE]
God he looks good
In that shirt, in those pants
[MIDDLE NOAH, spoken]
It's apple
[MIDDLE ALLIE, spoken]
Works for me!
[MIDDLE ALLIE]
In that shirt, in those pants
I wanna rip ’em off
With my teeth
God, he smells good
Just like wood in the rain
And I'm feeling that pain
I'm feeling that old pain only he can give
He can give right here
I’m never going back, I'm staying right here forever
I finally made it home I'm living and dying right here
Maybe on this table
Which I bet he built himself
[MIDDLE ALLIE, spoken]
Hey, where'd you get this table?
[MIDDLE NOAH, spoken]
Uh, I built it
[MIDDLE ALLIE & HIGH VOICES]
Mmm, mmm-mmm, mmmm, mmmm
Mmm, mmm-mmm, mmmm, mmmm-mmmm
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
[MIDDLE NOAH]
I can't bеlieve she's sitting thеre
Just sitting at the table I built for her
She looks so pretty
I like the little lines around her eyes
I wish I knew what put them there
She looks so pretty
I'm never letting her go, I'm holding her here
Forever
[MIDDLE ALLIE]
I’m never going back, I’m staying right here
[MIDDLE NOAH]
Forever
[MIDDLE NOAH]
I've finally got her home, I’m keeping her here
[MIDDLE ALLIE & MIDDLE NOAH]
Forever if I'm able
[MIDDLE NOAH, spoken]
Uh, hey, you still hungry?
[MIDDLE ALLIE, spoken]
Well, I'm always hungry
[MIDDLE NOAH, spoken]
How about dinner?
[MIDDLE ALLIE, spoken]
Sure
[MIDDLE NOAH, spoken]
Come on, I know a place
[MIDDLE NOAH]
And so it begins
I remember her skin and the curve of her back
The look in her eyes that only I can bring
I can bring her here
[MIDDLE ALLIE]
His body, his hands
They're the same, but not quite the same
And his mouth makes me ache
I can’t see straight
Oh, I just don't care
Just breathe the air with him
[ENSEMBLE]
Ah
Ah
[MIDDLE ALLIE, spoken]
Is this our dock?
[MIDDLE NOAH, spoken]
Yup, still standing
[MIDDLE ALLIE, spoken]
Oh, okay, I see. Dinner?
[YOUNG NOAH]
Don't ever leave again
[YOUNG ALLIE]
Why didn't you write me?
[MIDDLE NOAH, spoken]
Oh, uh, here. Here. Take this
[MIDDLE ALLIE]
Thanks
[YOUNG NOAH & LOW VOICES]
Don't ever leave again
[YOUNG ALLIE & HIGH VOICES]
Why didn't you write me?
[YOUNG NOAH, YOUNG ALLIE, & ENSEMBLE]
Don't ever leave me again
[MIDDLE NOAH, spoken]
Uh, maybe we should head back?
[MIDDLE NOAH, spoken]
Wait! I used to love to play in the rain
[ENSEMBLE]
Ah, ah
Ah, ah
Ah, ah
Ah, ah
Ah, ah
Ah, ah
Ah, ah
[MIDDLE ALLIE, spoken]
No. Why didn't you write to me?
[MIDDLE NOAH, spoken]
Wh-what are you talking about?
[MIDDLE ALLIE, spoken]
You said you would write to me and you didn't!
[MIDDLE NOAH, spoken]
I wrote you a letter everyday for a year
[MIDDLE ALLIE, spoken]
You did?
[MIDDLE NOAH, spoken]
Of course, I wrote you
[MIDDLE ALLIE, spoken]
I didn't get any letters
[MIDDLE NOAH, spoken]
But I sent them! I swear to you, I did
[MIDDLE ALLIE, spoken]
I thought you'd forgotten me
[MIDDLE NOAH, spoken]
Allie, I could never forget you
[MIDDLE ALLIE, spoken]
Okay, now we should go
[YOUNG NOAH]
Don't ever leave
[YOUNG ALLIE]
I'm never going back
[YOUNG NOAH]
Don't ever leave
[YOUNG ALLIE]
I'm never going back
[YOUNG NOAH, YOUNG ALLIE, & ENSEMBLE]
Don't leave me now
Don't leave me then
Don't ever leave me again
