lyrics

AMELIA:
IF I HAD A WISH
I WOULD WISH TO LEAVE
OR EVEN JUST BELIEVE
THAT LEAVING COULD EXIST.
I WOULDN'T NEED A NOVEL
‘CAUSE I'D BE LIVING MY STORY

IF YOU WERE LEFT
WITH NOTHING TO DO,
YOU'D UNDERSTAND
THROUGH MY WINDOW,
THERE'S A BEAUTIFUL VIEW
OF THE WHOLE LAND
BUT WHAT GOOD IS A VIEW
THAT YOU NEVER RUN OFF TO?

JACK, MR. PICKWICK & AMELIA:
WHAT'S THE POINT OF A VIEW
THAT YOU NEVER RUN OFF TO?
MAYBE IT'S A MILLION MILES AWAY
WAITING THERE FOR ME TO CLAIM
SINGING OUT MY NAME

JACK:
SINGING JACK, JACK
NEVER ON TRACK
PENNIES AND CRUMBS HOLDING YOU BACK
JACK JACK PLAN YOUR TRACK
PLAN YOUR ATTACK

AMELIA & JACK:
PENNIES AND CRUMBS HOLDING YOU BACK

JACK:
Now you try.

GIANT:
IF I HAD A WISH,
I WOULD CHANGE MY FATE

JACK:
Keep going.

GIANT:
I’D LEAVE A LIFE OF HATE
AND WALK INTO A WORLD
WHERE PEOPLE WOULDN’T JUDGE
THE PEOPLE THEY DON'T KNOW
HOWEVER BIG YOU GROW,
THEY'D LOOK YOU IN THE FACE

JACK
THIS IS JUST A PHASE
YOUR LIFE IS CHANGING
ONE OF THESE DAYS
