If We Never Meet Again

by Carolyn Maitland

on Rags: The Musical (Original London Cast Recording) (2020)

[Rebecca]
Soon we must part
Starting our lives anew
Where we may never meet again
But as we start
Know I'll be missing you
There, if we never meet again

You'll have your Papa
To shield you from harm
Safe on your farm in the middle of Orchard Street
You know I wish
Only good things for you
Organdy dresses
And boys with gold rings for you
Each day a treat
If we never meet again

[Bella]
Who would have thought on this crowded old ship
Down in the hold, where the nights never end
Who would have thought on this terrible trip
I'd meet a sister

[Rebecca]
An angel

[Both]
A friend

Now we'll bе there
Going our separatе ways
There in the Golden Land
Leading our golden days

[Rebecca]
But not quite complete

[Both]
If we never meet again

[Bella, spoken]
There she is!

[Rebecca, spoken]
The Statue of Liberty!
