I don't own Jesus Christ Superstar. This poem is the reflection between Jesus (J) and Mary Madgeline (M) during earlier and current times
((J))
You were always there for me
Through the laughter and the tears
Even when I felt like I was alone
Your love helped calm my fears
In the darkness when I was alone
And trembling in the night
You whispered to me "I AM RIGHT HERE"
And into the darkness you brought light
((M))
Alone in the nightmare
I will not cry
I will get where I am going
I can make it as long as I try
((J))
Looking into your eyes I see
What I saw years ago
Does anything but love mater
I have to answer no
In the darkness when I was alone
And trembling in the night
You whispered to me "I AM RIGHT HERE"
And into the darkness you brought the light
((M))
You were always there for me
The only one who really cared at all
You know that I was falling
And you would never let me fall
The words You had to speak that day
Still echo in my soul
I remember how you were trembling
And it seemed to be very cold
((J))
What do you do
When your heart will not say
The words you know they must
Do you go back along the way
((M))
In the darkness I am trembling
But I feel you here
Gently you take my hand
And whisper, "I am near"
The words I heard you whisper
Gets me through another night
Now I know this much
I am going to be alright
I put aside where I'm at right now
And look to a brighter day
Your words helped me see
That it isn't far away
((J))
I miss you so much
I hear you whisper to me
I echo the sentiments back to you
Losing you forever isn't an option you see
I return to that night
Given it's hard to do
But I will relive it all again
So I can be with you
((M))
How do you do it, my friend asked me
"Do what," I asked
"Stay so happy when you're struggling," he replied
"I mean I immediately came unmasked"
"First off all I'm not alone
"There will come a brighter day
"Being upset isn't going to
"This situation change"
In the darkness
You took my hand
And led me into
Your perfect land
((J and M))
In my darkness
When I was alone
Your love was a light
That led me home
