Margaret:

Stay here instead

Just tell me what you'd like to do

We'll talk and we'll laugh

And I'll sing to you

And I promise we won't fight

Don't leave tonight

Carrie: Momma, I'm late.

Margaret: The boy doesn't care

Not at all

Carrie: He'll be here at eight.

Margaret:

He'll build you up only to watch you fall

Carrie!

You don't know these people

They're not you're friends

Carrie!

They're only waiting to tear you in two

Carrie: What if they like me?

Margaret:

Just like you're father

They'll leave when they're through

Carrie. They might like me. they'll like me.

Margaret:

You're such a fool

You're such a fool

Aren't you aware how people deceive?

They'll take you and break you

And then they will leave you

Carrie, carrie

Carrie,

You are the love I was betrayed for

My pride and my shame

Carrie

Carrie, we're one and the same

Carrie

Carrie: Momma, I love you

Margaret: Carrie…

Carrie: Momma, I need you

Margaret: Don't go.

Tommy: (offstage)

Carrie!

Margaret: Don't go.
