As many times as my wife and I have traveled from South Carolina to the theater district in New York and to the red steps ticket booth, I never saw this show advertised or we would have definitely purchased tickets. I happened to see the TMC theater. full version of the show on RU-vid, and was blown away by the creativity, storyline, music and the choreography. I can only imagine what the full off-Broadway show was like. A BIG FAT BRAVO TO EVERYONE INVOLVED!
On My Own Song by Samantha Barks On my own Pretending he's beside me All alone I walk with him till morning Without him I feel his arms around me And when I lose my way I close my eyes And he has found me In the rain the pavement shines like silver All the lights are misty in the river In the darkness, the trees are full of starlight And all I see is him and me forever and forever And I know it's only in my mind That I'm talking to myself and not to him And although I know that he is blind Still I say, there's a way for us I love him But when the night is over He is gone The river's just a river Without him The world around me changes The trees are bare and everywhere The streets are full of strangers I love him But every day I'm learning All my life I've only been pretending Without me His world will go on turning A world that's full of happiness That I have never known I love him I love him I love him But only on my own

Johnny: I came to live in this house in the woods To work on my music on my own But somehow I feel it's a magical place And somehow I feel I'm not alone I was just Johnny 'till I walked through that door But I am not just Johnny anymore...
