Playing a role, that easy, but being yourself, that's a challenge.















- Ms. Darbus (HSM3)


I see your face
but you obviously
don’t see mine

I’m the girl in the corner
who no one notices
‘cause she makes
no sound
forgotten

Please don’t forget me
I’ve been here for so long
that I’ve forgotten
what it’s like
to be heard
and to be noticed
so please,
see me
hear me
don’t forget me

You look at me
but you don’t see me
I’m not really there

I’m so quiet
that you couldn’t see me
‘cause I’m part
of the
background

Please don’t forget me
I’ve been here for so long
that I’ve forgotten
what it’s like
to be heard
and to be noticed
so please,
see me
hear me
don’t forget me

And for once in my life
our eyes meet
and I feel flush
in my cheeks
You see me!
You see me!
I can’t believe that
after all this time
that you could see me

So, please don’t forget me
I’ve been here for so long
that I’ve forgotten
what it’s like
to be heard
and to be noticed
so please,
see me
hear me
don’t forget me

Please
see me
hear
don't forget me
