Songs for an Impossible Musical #8
As the curtain rises on Act Two, the boys and girls of the chorus raise their voices in:
The Second-Act Opening
It's a brand new start, and you're feeling optimistic. There's hope in your heart Though that's hardly realistic. You're beginning again, you're starting anew As though you believed that dreams can come true. Beginning again and starting afresh Wow! Maybe this time everything's gonna mesh. Beginning anew, a different start. There's plenty for you on life's a la carte, You hope, You dope, You hope. What'll come you can't say but in any event you're Chock full of hope For today's the first day Of life's new adventure, You hope, You dope, You hope.
