Feat Marla Schaffel James Barbour Brave Enough for Love song lyrics
JANE: Sir, I have come back to you
Content
ROCHESTER: Great God! What delusion is this?
JANE: Ready to stand here by your side,
As you see fit...
ROCHESTER: Is it Jane?
JANE: As your friend, or as your bride.
ROCHESTER: My living Jane!
JANE: Sir, you are my second self
And I will be your hands
I'll be your eyes
I am here
With my heart
ROCHESTER: I can't see, but I can feel...
How I've loved you, every day.
JANE: I've loved you stronger every day
How I've lived without your touch...
ROCHESTER: How I've struggled to survive...
BOTH: ...Only God above can say.
ROCHESTER: Am I hideous, Jane?
JANE: Very, sir. You always were you know.
ROCHESTER: I see the wickedness is still within you.
But is it really you, Jane? Are you come back to me?
JANE: I am!
ROCHESTER: And you are not dead in some ditch, or an outcast among strangers?
JANE: No, sir! I am an independent woman now!
ROCHESTER
And independent woman?
JANE
My aunt has died and left me her fortune
ROCHESTER: Then you possess more wealth than I
What could I possibly offer?
I am no better
Than the old chestnut
Struck down by lightning
Its life cleft in two
For why should you marry
A blind man, a cripple
Tell me, Jane, what right do I have to you?
I prayed in the name of God
Don't let Jane suffer
Don't let her die
For three days, in my despair
I cried to heaven
Where is Jane Eyre?
Then, from my lips
Came a voice, came a name
I cried "Jane" from the depths
I called out
I cried "Jane"
BOTH: And I don't know what happened
But I thought I heard you...
JANE: Did you speak these words out loud?
ROCHESTER: I did. If anyone was listening,
he would have thought me mad... I called out with such frantic energy.
JANE: And this was last Monday evening, just after sunset?
ROCHESTER: Yes, but what followed is the strangest point.
Where the voice came from, I cannot tell,
but I know whose voice it was... And the voice replied...
JANE: Edward? Where are you? Wait for me!
ROCHESTER: Yes, yes... but how could you know that?
JANE: The secrets of your heart
Are like the secrets of the house
They have finally been revealed
ROCHESTER: There is no more to hide
I have looked death in the face
And though a part of me has died
BOTH: I will never lose faith
I will never lose heart
For you have restored my trust
And I know you're afraid
I'm as scared as you are
But willing to be brave
Brave enough for love
ROCHESTER: And now I have your hand
JANE: Clutching mine with all its might
Holding on for precious life
ROCHESTER: The purifying flame
Has washed us clean of all our fears
BOTH: It was a miracle of God
I will never lose faith
I will never lose heart
For you have restored my trust
And I know you're afraid
I'm as scared as you are
But willing to be brave
Brave enough for love
And when I heard your voice
Beyond the sky
I knew it was a sign from God above
One I could not deny
JANE: So, gentle audience, I married him.
No woman was ever nearer to her mate than I am,
ever more absolutely bone of his bone and flesh of his flesh.
ROCHESTER: The secret of the flame
Is that there is no more to hide
It cures our blindness
And our pride
BOTH: And we'll never lose faith
We will never lose heart
For you have restored my trust
And I know you're afraid
I'm as scared as you are
But willing to be brave
Brave enough for love
JANE: Edward continued blind the first two years of our marriage,
then, slowly, the sight in one eye began to return to him.
CAST: Forgiveness
Is the mightiest sword
Forgiveness...
JANE: And when our firstborn was placed into his arms,
he could see that the boy had inherited his own eyes,
as they once were-large, brilliant and black.
On this occasion, we acknowledged with full hearts,
that God had tempered judgment with mercy.
ROCHESTER: I will never lose faith
I will never lose heart
For you have restored my trust
JANE: And I know you're afraid
I'm as scared as you are...
BOTH: But willing to be brave
Brave enough for love!
CAST: I will never lose faith
I will never lose heart
For you have restored my trust
And I know you're afraid
I'm as scared as you are
But willing to be brave
Brave enough for love!
I will never lose faith
I will never lose heart
For you have restored my trust
And I know you're afraid
I'm as scared as you are
But willing to be brave
Brave enough for love
JANE: Brave enough for love!
CAST: Brave enough for love
