Chapter Ten

Charlotte and Silas and sitting next to each other, hold hands as they watch the Northern Lights.

Charlotte: All those days watching from the windows

All those years outside looking in

All that time never even knowing

Just how blind I've been

Charlotte smiles at Silas

Charlotte: Now I'm here blinking in the starlight

Now I'm here, suddenly I see

Standing here

It's all so clear

I'm where I'm meant to be

Charlotte stands and reaches out toward the audience.

Charlotte: And at last I see the light

And it's like the fog has lifted

And at last I see the light

And it's like the sky is new

And it's warm and real and bright

And the world has somehow shifted

All at once everything looks different

Now that I see you

Charlotte sits down as Silas begins to sing.

Silas: All those days chasing down a daydream

All those years living in a blur

All that time never truly seeing

Things

The way they were

Now she's here shining in the starlight

Now she's here suddenly I know

If she's here it's crystal clear

I'm where I'm meant to go

''Silas wraps an arm around her. They look at each other. The ensemble comes out, girls on Charlotte’s side and boys on Silas’s.''

All: And at last I see the light

Silas and male ensemble: And it's like the fog has lifted

All: And at last I see the light

Charlotte and female ensemble: And it's like the sky is new

All: And it's warm and real and bright

And the world has somehow shifted

All at once everything is different

Now that I see you

The ensemble waves their arms, stops singing, and sits gracefully.

Charlotte and Silas: Now that I see you

''They smile at each other, their faces getting closer and closer until they gently kiss. The ensemble sighs. Fade out.''
