There But For You Go I Lyrics by Patrick Wilson (Actor)

Lerner & Loewe’s Brigadoon (New York City Center 2017 Cast Recording)

2018

[TOMMY]
This is hard to say but as I wandered through the lea
I felt for just a fleeting moment that I suddenly was free of being lonely
Then I closed my eyes and saw the very reason why
I saw a man with his head bowed low
His heart had no place to go
I looked and I thought to myself with a sigh
There but for you go I
I saw a man walking by the sea
Alone with the tide was he
I looked and I thought as I watched him go by
There but for you go I
Lonely men around me
Trying not to cry
Till the day you found me
There among them was I
I saw a man who had nеver known
A love that was all his own
I thought as I thanked all thе stars in the sky
There but for you go I
[TOMMY, spoken]
I love you, Fiona
[FIONA, spoken]
Oh, Tommy
I've wanted to hear ye say it
Even though it be at the last minute like this
[TOMMY, spoken]
The last minute?
[FIONA, spoken]
Aye
Soon now 'tis the end of our day
[TOMMY, spoken]
And then you vanish?
[FIONA, spoken]
Aye
[TOMMY, spoken]
But Fiona, I can't leave you
Not now, I can't
Wait a minute
Didn't Lundie say someone could stay if he loved someone enough?
[FIONA, spoken]
Aye
[TOMMY, spoken]
Well, that's for me
Where do I go?
Who do I talk to?
Where do I get a passport to disappear?
[TOMMY]
I saw a man who had never known
A love that was all his own
I thought as I thanked all the stars in the sky
There but for you go I
