Andrew Lloyd Webber — All For Laura

[MARIAN] Inner voices Keeping me awake Will I ever sleep again Reassessing Everything I've done Choices that I can't explain All for Laura This is what I prayed All for Laura Have I betrayed you? With our old life Ever out of reach Look at what I've led you to God forgive me Look at what I've done Look how I protected you All for Laura Shouldn't I have known? I know one thing We are alone now I sent away the man The man that we could trust The only man that we both love All for Laura Was it really you Who I was thinking of? All for Laura But at the start Were you foremost in my heart? All for Laura That's how I'll live Till I save you Till you forgive me I'll dedicate my life I swear upon my soul I'll find a way to set you free All for Laura Till my dying breath Long as you're in need of me I will somehow Learn to be strong I will live To right This wrong (Anne Catherick appears behind her and overhears what she says) [ANNE] I will help you [MARIAN] Oh! [ANNE] I can help you both He must never win again [MARIAN] It's you! [ANNE] I can trust you And I have a way We can stop this evil man [MARIAN] It's amazing I see her face! [ANNE] I have come here To save your sister [MARIAN] Oh, thank you! [ANNE] Tomorrow, at this time Bring her here to me But promise that you'll be alone I've a secret And when it is told It will surely bring him down [MARIAN] Tell me now, please! [ANNE] Only for Laura... (Anne disappears.) (Suddenly Fosco appears. Marian jumps.) [FOSCO] Miss Halcombe! Forgive me. I didn't mean to startle you. I saw your room was empty: I thought, you must be out here counting your English sheep! Dico bene? [MARIAN] I couldn't sleep [FOSCO] Wandering about in the dark—and without the aid of a coat! Tut, tut. You English ladies are so reckless with your midnight flitting! You must allow me to accompany you home [MARIAN] Oh, really, there's no need [FOSCO] You're shivering, Miss Halcombe. Per piacere—take my arm [MARIAN] Thank you (They leave together)
