Mirror
Cara and Jeremy enter.
Blue lights up on Cara behind screens. She is getting changed.
Cara:
The lady before me
Is gentle and worthy
Her smile is so lovely
Her nature says love me
So well groomed and well cut
Face painted not made up
She's cultured and clever
So well put together
Red lights up on Jeremy at office. It is Tuesday evening - he has been working late. Taking the hat-stand as a substitute, he sings of his love for Cara.
Jeremy:
Words can not express all I feel
How to show that my love is real
But I can`t keep these feelings inside
The joy I feel when you're by my side
Cara:
The lady before me
Is graceful and pretty
Her virtues adorn her
Her breeding her aura
So perfect her countenance
A rehearsed performance
I love her, could she be
The best image of me
Jeremy:
Words can not express all I feel
How to show that my love is real
But I can't keep these feelings inside
The joy I feel when you're by my side
Cara:
I'm terrified that he might find
The secret life that lies behind
The memories that haunt my day
And make me wish the night away
Cara: Jeremy:
I wish I could deceive myself Words can not express all I feel
And change the way I feel inside
I couldn't bear to be myself How to show that my love is real
It's someone I don't recognize
Lights down on Cara.
Jeremy takes the hat-stand with him to the bus stop. (The stand is inverted to become a bus stop).
