Something Rotten! (Original Broadway Cast Recording)
We See the Light
I'm tired of listening to the same sad story
How lovers fail because it's written in the stars
The feuding family plot is starting to bore me
I'm thinking we can show them that's not who we are
It may take a little more persuading
For those who think it's better that we are apart
I have no doubt their doubts will soon be fading
We'll show them how true love finds a way
Even though I know what they'll say
No, no that won't do
God has plans for you
If you live in sin
You let the devil win
No, no that won't do
But then they'll hear the words of truth you've written from your heart
If love is a sickness
Then find me no cure
For tis only love
That I know to be pure (aww)
Then they'll think about it
And pray about it
Then their hearts will open
Then they'll be singing a different tune
We see the light
You changed how we're thinking
'Cause we were blind
You showed us the way
We're wrong, you're right
Salvation is yours if you do what is true to you
And you do it with love
Do it with love yeah, oh!
Your father
Yeah, he's a hard man to be moved
And he'll say
This is unacceptable
I do not approve
But I know you'll win him over
His heart is gonna sing
And he'll love you
When you do your thing
If love is love purely
Then let me opine
That all love is surely divine
Good God, y'all
I see the light
You changed how I'm thinking
'Cause I was blind
And you've shown me the way
I'm wrong, you're right
Salvation is yours if you do what is true to you
And you do it with love
Do it with love
Oh! Brethren (Yes)
I say unto you (Say what)
I say who are we to judge these two (So true, preach it)
He's a writer doing what he can (What he can)
She's a daughter of a preacher man (Woo!)
And they got the right to
They got the right
They got the right to be together
I need no further proof
These words, they speak the truth (The truth will set you free)
Set you free when you
Do what is true to you
And you do it with
Wait
Read
Aww
Yay
Love
Do it with love
Yeah
We see the light
You changed how we're thinking
'Cause we were blind
You showed us the way
We're wrong
You're right
Salvation is yours if you do what is true to you
And you do it with love
Do it with love
Love
Do it with love
