Into The Woods~ Lyrics~

These lyrics make me cry everytime that I hear this song.
It makes me think of how much I wanted my mom during
the rape. How I was calling to her in my head...
How very alone I have felt for so long.

No One Is Alone
Stephen Sondheim

Mother cannot guide you.
Now you're on you're own.
Only me beside you.
Still, you're not alone.
No one is alone, truly.
No one is alone.
Sometimes people leave you
halfway through the wood.
Others may deceive you.
You decide what's good.
You decide alone.
But no one is alone.
I wish...
I know...
Mother isn't here now.
Wrong things, right things...
Who knows what she'd say?
Who can say what's true?
Nothing's quite so clear now-
Do things, fight things...
Feel you've lost your way?
You decide, but
You are not alone,
Believe me.
No one is alone.
No one is alone,
Believe me.
Truly...
You move just a finger,
Say the slightest word,
Something's bound to linger,
Be heard.
No one acts alone.
Careful, no one is alone.
People make mistakes.
Fathers,
Mothers,
People make mistakes,
Holding to their own,
Thinking they're alone.
Honor their mistakes...
Fight for their mistakes-
Everybody makes-
One another's
Terrible mistakes.
Witches can be right,
Giants can be good.
You decide what's right,
You decide what's good.
Just remember:
Just remember:
Someone is on your side
Our side--Someone else is not
While we're seeing our sideJack,
Our side..
Our side--
Maybe we forgot:
they are not alone.
No one is alone.
Hard to see the light now.
Just don't let it go
Things will come out right now.
We can make it so.
Someone is on your side--
No one is alone.
