[woman 1]
there
he was never there
every time we talked
i’d look in his eyes
and his mind was… where?

i don’t mean to say
life was gloom and doom
things were always pleasant
if i needed help
he was in the room
he just wasn’t present

he just wasn’t there
never really there
i felt so unhinged
i went out and binged
had that dumb affair

still, the fault’s not mine
quoting gertrude stein
there was just no “there” there
there, there

don’t know why i care
‘cept that i am here
’cause he wasn’t—
[man 2]
there

[woman 1]
—there

[man 2]
i was never—

[woman 1]
there

[man 2]
—there
she was always

[woman 1]
there

[man 2]
saying “george, be—”

[woman 1]
there

[man 2]
and my mind said… where?
did i have a choice?
love is worth a fight
not a thing you squander
[woman 1, spoken]
yoo hoo, george

[man 2]
then i’d hear her voice

[woman 1, spoken]
george?

[man 2]
urgent and uptight

[woman 1, spoken]
h+llo?

[man 2]
and my mind would wander

[woman 1, spoken]
come in, george

[man 2]
so i wasn’t there

[woman 1]
couldn’t he be there?
[man 2]
never really there

[woman 1]
once an evening, there

[man 2]
and i felt maligned
that my vagrant mind
meant i didn’t care

[woman 1]
it was clear that he didn’t care

[man 2]
then to make things smooth
she would try to soothe
sticking in her “there, there” there

[woman 1]
there, there

[man 2]
got out of her hair
’cause she made it clear
that i wasn’t there

[woman 1]
i’m not a jerk
though it’s the way i seem

[man 2]
wanted to be there

[woman 1]
he had his work
i gave him time to dream

[man 2]
knew i should be there

[woman 1]
lost my desire
waiting ’til he awoke

[man 2]
worked at being there

[woman 1]
longing for fire
living with smoke
isn’t a joke

[man 2]
i tried to go her way
wanting things improved
tired of being not there

[woman 1]
is it so hard a task?

[man 2]
think of my dismay
finding she had moved
by the time i got there

[woman 1]
too much to ask?

[man 2]
she was over there

[woman 1]
i was here, i was always here

[man 2]
where the h+ll was there?

[woman 1]
there was here
could it be more clear?

[woman 1 & man 2]
groping like the blind
how we hoped to find
one place we could share
faults we tried to hide
living side by side
funny, when they’re there, they’re there

[woman 1]
there, there
and it isn’t fair

[man 2]
no, it really isn’t fair

[woman 1]
that we wind up here

[man 2]
that we wind up here

[woman 1 & man 2]
when we once were
there
doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo
