Xanadu (Original Broadway Cast Recording)

Sonny:
Why do I say
Don't walk away
You'll be the way you were before
When you don't want me anymore
Don't turn around
Don't ever leave
A lonely room where empty days
Are gathering to meet me when you're
Sonny/Muses:
Gone, gone
Sonny:
How in the world will I go on
Muses:
Don't walk away
Sonny:
All you gotta do is stay
Muses:
Don't walk away
Sonny:
All you gotta do is stay
Muses:
Don't walk away
Sonny:
Don't walk away
Muses:
Don't walk away
Sonny:
Don't say goodbye
Muses:
Don't say goodbye
Sonny:
Don't turn around
Muses:
Don't turn around
Sonny:
Don't let it die
Muses:
Don't let it die
Sonny:
When shadows fall
Muses:
When shadows fall
Sonny:
When day is done
Muses:
When day is done
Sonny:
All through the night
Muses:
All through the night
Sonny:
All of my life
Muses:
All of my life
Sonny:
Don't walk away
Danny:
Is it a dream
When will it end
When everything we've ever known
Has ended and I'm all alone
Where will I go
Melpomene/Calliope:
Where will he go
Danny:
Where will I be
The feelings that I've never shown
Maybe I'll find the answer when you're
Danny/Melpomene/Calliope:
Gone, gone
Danny:
How in the world will I go on
Melpomene:
Don't walk away
Calliope:
All you gotta do is stay
Melpomene:
Don't walk away
Muses:
Don't walk away
Sonny:
Don't walk away
Muses:
Don't say goodbye
Sonny:
Don't say goodbye
Muses:
Don't turn around
Sonny:
Don't turn around
Muses:
Don't let it die
Sonny:
Don’t let it die
Muses:
When shadows fall
When day is done
All through the night
Sonny:
All through the night
Muses:
All of my life
Sonny:
Don't walk away
Muses:
Don't walk away
Sonny:
Don't say goodbye
Muses:
Don't say goodbye
Sonny:
Don't turn around
Muses:
Don't turn around
Sonny:
Don't let it die
Muses:
Don't let it die

When shadows fall
