Without You (Mimi's Apartment)
4
(Three beds appear downstage. One, a hospital bed, is occupied by
5
ANGEL. ROGER sits on another, JOANNE on the third. MIMI
6
approaches ROGER, and then appears to be in a hurry.)

ROGER
8
Where were you?

MIMI
10
I'm sorry I'm late...
11
ROGER (interrupting)
12
I know. You lost your keys. No, you went for a walk; you had to help
13
your mother. (As he picks up the guitar) And how's Benny? I'm gonna
14
work upstairs tonight.
15
MIMI
16
Wait...
17
I should tell you
18
I should ...
19
Never mind...
20
ROGER
21
Happy Spring
22
(ROGER exits. MIMI pulls out a just-purchased stash and angrily flings
23
it across the room. As she sings the following, a stylized "musical
24
beds" is choreographed around her; during the bridge of the song,
25
COLLINS carries ANGEL from the hospital bed and ROGER takes his
26
place. By the end of the song, MAUREEN and JOANNE are reunited,
27
as are ROGER and MIMI. COLLINS and ANGEL have lain down
28
together, where ANGEL dies.)

Without you
31
The ground thaws
32
The rain falls
33
The grass grows
34
Without you
35
The seeds root
36
The flowers bloom
37
The children play
38
The stars gleam
39
The poets dream
40
The eagles fly
41
Without you
42
The earth turns
43
The sun burns
44
But I die
45
Without you
46
Without you
47
The breeze warms
48
The girl smiles
49
The cloud moves
50
Without you
51
The tides change
52
The boys run
53
The oceans crash
54
The crowds roar
55
The days soar
56
The babies cry
57
Without you
58
The moon glows
59
The river flows
60
But I die
61
Without you
62
ROGER
63
The world revives
64
MIMI
65
Colors renew
66
BOTH
67
But I know blue
68
Only blue
69
Lonely blue
70
Within me, blue
71
Without you
72
MIMI
73
Without you
74
The hand gropes
75
The ear hears
76
The pulse beats
77
ROGER
78
Without you
79
The eyes gaze
80
The legs walk
81
The lungs breathe
82
BOTH
83
The mind churns
84
The heart yearns
85
The tears dry
86
Without you
87
Life goes on
88
But I'm gone
89
Cause I die
90
ROGER
91
Without you
92
MIMI
93
Without you
94
ROGER
95
Without you
96
BOTH
97
Without you
