There Was John Original Broadway Cast of Tootsie (Ft. Lilli Cooper & Santino Fontana)

[Julie]
I was the girl in the bubble at school
Behind my own personal wall for protection
I'd sit there alone like a fool
I never was able to make a connection

Then one day I tried out for the play
I'll never forget it
A Flea in Her Ear
And I was suddenly someone with something to say
Making a sound everybody could hear

And suddenly everything makes some sense
Then I saw this guy in the audience

And there was John
Fifth row on the aisle
With a big smile on
And after the show he came backstage
And now that this birdie was out of her cage
Well, everything was okay

We date for a year, then we're cohabitating
Then I get a big chance to take the next step
Away from a job I was hating
And into a slot in the regional rep
