TOMMY (spoken)
Now it's time for that dance
CARRIE (spoken)
Tommy
TOMMY (spoken)
No, come on. Take my hand
(CARRIE takes his hand, but stares at the floor)
No, no, no. Don't look down. Look in my eyes and forget about everything else
(Sung)
An eagle's just another bird
Until he can spread his wings
A river's just a sheet of ice
Till winter turns to spring
CARRIE (sung)
And though the clouds may block the Sun
Don't mean that it's left the sky
TOMMY
Just when you think you've seen it all
There's more than meets the eye
CARRIE
Like, things I dream
TOMMY
And things I feel
CARRIE
There's more to me
BOTH
Than I reveal
TOMMY
And cause I shine in quiet ways
I'm someone you don't recognize
BOTH
I'm a diamond in the rough
A dreamer in disguise
(TOMMY and CARRIE slow dance. A spotlight shines on SUE, who's snuck in and is unobserved by everyone else.)
SUE (spoken)
I couldn't stay home
I had to go to prom to see how it all worked out
I needed to see
Carrie looked so at ease - so happy
NORMA (spoken, glaring at CARRIE and TOMMY)
Well, will you get a load of them! Couldn't you just barf?
HELEN (spoken)
I can't believe Chris is missing this
NORMA (spoken)
Trust me, doll-
(Winks at HELEN)
-She isn't missing a thing
