Alan Menken
Dear Ophelia
[Verse 1: ELIOT]
Dear Ophelia, here's a letter
Though it's sure to leave a question in your mind
Why I've gone away, why I've left our world behind
When I don't know what it is I hope to find

[Verse 2: ELIOT]
Still, Ophelia, I must wander
With a suitcase and a road map in my hand
Down the highways of a lost and lonely land
Looking close and trying hard to understand

[Bridge: ELIOT]
Believe me, Ophelia
Believe in what I do
Trust me and love me
As much as I love you
Until I'm through

[Verse 3: ELIOT]
Dear Ophelia, don't be frightened
Don't be sad, and don't sit waiting by the phone
I've got questions
I need answers of my own
Dear Ophelia, the only place to find them is
(spoken)
Alone
