"Where in the World?" and "How Could I Ever Know?" from The Secret Garden

 

My father died when I was 10 and my mother was destroyed by it. It was a long time before she was able to get through her days without thinking of him constantly and seeing him in everything around her. That was 36 years ago, and while she eventually was able to move on with her life, she still never remarried. She told me the other day that he was her soulmate and she could never think of being with anyone else. I always think of them when I hear this. I still hope to find a love like that.

 

Where in the World?

 

ARCHIBALD:

Now I see you in the window

Of a carriage, then a train.

Still my mind cannot accept that

In your grave you must remain.

Now I hear your voice then turn and

See a stranger's form and face.

Must I wander on tormented

Place to place to place to place!

 

Where can I go that you won't find me?

Why can't I find a place to hide?

Why do you have to chase me, haunt me?

Every step you're there beside me.

 

Where in the world, tell me, where in the world

Can I live without your love?

Where on the earth, tell me where on the earth

Can I stay now that you are gone?

 

Why did I have to meet you, love you?

Why can't I rid you from my mind?

Why did you have to want me?

Won't you let me put my life behind me?

 

How in the world, tell me how in the world

Can I live without your love?

Why on the earth, tell me, why on the earth

Should I stay now that you are gone?

Now that you are...

 

[spoken]

Lily, is that you?

 

How Could I Ever Know?

 

LILY:

How could I know I would have to leave you?

How could I know I would hurt you so?

You were the one I was born to love!

Oh, how could I ever know?

How could I ever know?

 

How can I say to go on without me?

How, when I know you still need me so?

How can I say not to dream about me?

How could I ever know?

How could I ever know?

 

Forgive me.

Can you forgive me

And hold me in your heart,

And find some new way to love me

Now that we're apart?

How could I know I would never hold you?

Never again in this world, but oh,

Sure as you breathe, I am there inside you,

How could I ever know?

How could I ever know?

 

ARCHIBALD:

How can I hope to go on without you?

How can I know where you'd have me go?

How can I bear not to dream about you?

Oh, how can I let you go?

 

LILY:

How could I ever know?

 

ARCHIBALD:

All I need...

 

LILY:

Is there in the garden!

 

ARCHIBALD:

All I would ask...

 

LILY:

Is care for the child of our love!

Come, go with me, safe I will keep you.

 

ARCHIBALD:

Where you would lead me,

There I would,

 

LILY:

There I would, there we would,

 

ARCHIBALD and LILY:

There we will go.

How, how could I know?

Tell me how, how could I know?

Ever to know you will never leave me!

How could we ever know?

 

LILY:

How could I ever know?
