Unsuspecting Hearts (Reprise) Lyrics by Premiere Cast

Miss Gardner, spoken]
So tell me, Carrie, is it everything you'd dreamed?

[Carrie]
It's...nice

[Miss Gardner]
Just "nice"?

[Carrie]
It's, it's like being on Mars. I'm not really sure what I'm supposed to do

[Miss Gardner]
I remember my Prom. I went with the captain of the basketball team. He was 6 feet 7 inches tall!
So I went out and bought a pair of these stiletto heels, so that our kiss goodnight would be a little less awkward
Anyway, we went in his pickup truck, which of course broke down, so we had to walk the last half mile to the Prom

[Carrie]
Oh, no!

[Miss Gardner]
By the time we got there, my feet were so blistered that all I could do was sit there
I was sure I'd ruined the night - I couldn't dance
But instead we just sat there and talked
And you know what? It turned out to be one of the best nights of my entire life
Carrie, sung]
So I guess I'm not the only one who's ever felt this way
Now I'm thinking, suddenly
If you got through this, why not me?

[Miss Gardner]
Oh, the sweetest memory's never planned
Let life take you by the hand
That's how it starts

[Carrie]
That's how it starts

[Both]
Two unsuspecting hearts
