Carrie: The Musical Ensemble
When There’s No One
[Margaret White]
When there's no one
There is darkness
All the light that used to shine
That once was mine
No longer glows
And there is no sun
When there's no one
When the song dies
There is silence
When the tune that filled my days
No longer plays
The room is still
And I hear long sighs
When the song dies
Was I so foolish to think I could pray
When there's only one chance I can save you?
I gave you life, I can take it away
Let the shadows descend like a knife
But when I am all alone
Will I cry "Carrie?"
Oh, my Carrie!
Who will hold me
When there's no one?
When the smiles I used to see
Are not for me
What will I do?
Nobody's told me
Who will hold me
There is no sun
When there's no one
