Close Every Door (From "Joseph And The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat")

JOSEPH

Close every door to me hide all the world from me

Bar all the windows and shut out the light

Do what you want with me hate me and laugh at me

Darken my daytime and torture my night

If my life were important I

Would ask will I live or die

But I know the answers lie far from this world

Close every door to me keep those I love from me

Children of Israel are never alone

For I know I shall find my own peace of mind

For I have been promised a land of my own

CHILDREN

Close every door to me hide all the world from me

Bar all the windows and shut out the light

La la la la la la

REPEAT

JOSEPH

Just give me a number instead of my name

Forget all about me and let me decay

I do not matter

I'm only one person

Destroy me completely then throw me away

If my life were important I

Would ask will I live or die

But I know the answers lie far from this world

CAST

Close every door to me keep those I love from me

Children of Israel are never alone

For we know we shall find our own peace of mind

For we have been promised a land of our own
