[EMMIE]
All alone
[THE MOON]
Dona, dona
[EMMIE]
All alone
[THE MOON]
Dona, dona, dona
Dona, dona
Dona, dona, dona
[STUART]
To him I have grown as remote as Tibet
The bigger he grows, the stranger we get
Gone are the days of our simple duet
His piccolo piping, my bass clarinet
All gone, nothing left but a note of regret
[THE MOON & STUART]
Dona, dona, dona (Never, oh never)
Dona, dona, dona (Never forget her)
Dona, dona (Never forget her)
Dona, dona, dona (Never forget)
{ROSE}
Look, see Rose's husband
Gone stiff in midair
The heartbroke musician
Who froze on the stair
Oh, Stu, do you love me?
The question's unfair
How can you be loved by
Someone who's not there?
[STUART]
Can't go up to see him, I'll only upset
My sad little son but I can't go down yet
She needs from me things that I cannot provide
[STUART, spoken]
Conversation, support, and a heart
[STUART]
Those all died
I'll stand here eight days 'til the last candle's burned
And the guests and the maid and poor Rose have returned
To wherever they came from
'Til Noah has grown
He and I will live here in this house all alone
And I'll say to him, "Noah, the moon shone so bright
When she played her bassoon that last Chanukah night"
[STUART, EMMIE & THE MOON]
Oh, do you remember
The way that it shone?
Dona, dona, dona (And I'll live in my house) (On the house)
Dona, dona, dona (And I'll make it okay) (On the three of us here)
All alone
[EMMIE & STUART]
Mama, I'm sorry (All alone)
I called you a maid
