New "Secret Soul" lyrics, as performed by Marla Schaffel and James Barbour on The Rosie O'Donnell Show on November 16, 2000:

Jane
What can I do now, my precious Lord?
I fear his faith may never be restored.
I know I should not dare to go
Deeper in his madness,
But it’s like a field I must run through.
All my pulses race. I cannot sleep.
A precipice is daring me to leap.
Will I resist delirium?
My judgment warns my passion
Not to let this fever ravage me.
Deep in my secret soul,
A fire burns.
My heart flutters near the flame
For which it yearns.
But I can still recall dead lilies on a grave,
A little child in the attic
That no one’s love would save.
Now I move through his unquiet sea.
I pray a wave will come and carry me
Closer to his troubled tide,
Waters of his fury,
But how can I swim this great divide?
Deep in my secret soul...

Rochester
Her spring of life...

Jane
...I cry his tears.

Rochester
...draws me near.

Jane
I weather his angry voice.

Rochester
Her gentle voice...

Jane
I feel his fears.

Rochester
...I hold dear.

Jane and Rochester
His/her life is infecting every wound and every pore.
I feel his/her mystery possess me,
And I pray that mercy’s hand will bless me.

Jane
Deep in his secret soul...

Rochester
Deep in my secret soul...

Jane
...I hear his cry.

Rochester
...I stand alone.

Jane
Will heaven forgive my heart
If I reply?

Rochester
I will not atone!

Jane
Oh Lord, should I dare to go...

Rochester
And I will not ever let her...

Jane
...closer to where my heart is whole?

Rochester
...deep within...

Jane
Deep within...

Jane and Rochester
...his/my secret soul!
