lin-manuel miranda - i can't go back (rewind tonight) [workshop] lyrics

[narration]
lights go up on a subway car

[vanessa]
on a subway at 3 in the morning
and she’s the only soul awake
my reflection’s alone in the window
and i don’t recognize her face
she wipes mascara from her eyes
the train is tumbling through the night
going home in the light of the station
she is gone

she is a phantom in the gl-ss
watching another subway p-ss
and beyond the window’s reflection
there’s a train in the other direction

woah-oh-oh
rewind tonight
take me in that other car and take me towards the light
if i could ride another track
go back and time and take tonight back
but i can’t forget
and i feel like i’m sick to my stomach with regret

[lincoln]
on a corner at 3 in the morning
when half the world is fast asleep
i’ve been biding my time
i’ve been writing a lonely song i couldn’t keep

i shut my mouth and try to hide
a burning melody inside
walking home in the wake of the streetlights i’m a ghost

all of my feelings have to wait
all of my life a masquerade
and tonight i am lost
i am lost

woah-oh-oh
rewind tonight
let me get another chance to try to say things right
if i could try another track go back in time and take tonight back
but i can’t forget, and i can’t bring myself to go stumbling home just yet
[vanessa] [lincoln]
look at that stupid girl in the window look at this foolish boy in the shadows
will he miss you tonight? woah-oh
oh what did you do tonight? -oh
what did i do tonight? i’m alone tonight
i ride the train to leave the pain woah-oh-oh
but all my memory’s insane rewind tonight
woah-oh-oh i lost control and someone stole a
rewind tonight chance for me to bare my soul
the night is over when you’re sober woah-oh-oh
and i hope that someone told her rewind tonight
woah-oh-oh i can’t forget this whole regret and i
rewind tonight can’t tell him, no not yet

[vanessa and lincoln]
woah-oh-oh rewind tonight
woah-oh-oh rewind tonight
