Will You Remember Me?

[TINA, spoken]
Brom. Look at me. Speak to me!

[BROM, spoken]
I don't dare, Tina. I must bear myself like a man. However, I leave my sharpening utensils and equipment to Tenpin. And I leave my flute to Tina Tienhoven, as a token of my undying affection.

[TINA, spoken]
If only it were undying.

(sung)
Oh, love, will you keep me in mind
When they've taken your life away
When your voice goes back to the wind
And the light goes out of your day?
My love will cling to you
My heart will sing to you
'Til the hair on my head is thinned
And my lips are gray
But when you're but a memory
Will you, can you remember me?

[BROM]
Oh, love, when my eyes are gone blind
And the moss on my stone is gray
And the worms on my corpse have dined
In the dark of the sunken clay
My love will cling to you
My dust will sing to you
'Til your figure is bent and thinned
In a far off day
And when I'm but a memory
Still then, even then shall I remember thee!

[TINA & ENSEMBLE, BROM]
Oh, yes Oh, then
He will keep me in mind When my eyes are gone blind
When they've taken And the moss on
His life away My stone is gray
When his voice And the worms
Goes back to the wind On my corpse have dined
And the light In the dark
Has gone out of his day Of the sunken clay

[ENSEMBLE]
His love will cling to her
His dust will sing to her

[TINA, BROM & ENSEMBLE]
'Til the hair on my 'Til her figure is
Head is thinned Bent and thinned
And my lips are gray In a far off day

[TINA & BROM]
And when you're but a memory
Still then, even then, shall I remember thee!
