Mamma Mia! 3

30. Dance, While the Music Still Goes On

After a while, at the wedding party, everybody gathered around a great dinner. Suddenly, Sophie and Sky stood up in order to make a speech.

(Song: Dance (While the Music Still Goes On))

SOPHIE - Oh, my love it makes me sad
Everything comes to an end
Was it just a dream, everything we did, everything we had?

Sky took her hand and they began to dance.

SKY - Baby, give me one more
Dance while the music still goes on
Don't think about tomorrow

Then, Fernando stood up, inviting Ruby to dance.

FERNANDO - Dance and forget our time is gone
Tonight's a night we borrow

Likewise, Bill and Harry stood up, inviting Rosie and Petros to dance, followed by Raphael and Tanya.

BILL - Let's make it a memory, a night of our own

HARRY - A thing to remember when we're all alone

Finally, Sam stood up, inviting his sons to dance, followed by Donny and Samantha.

SAM - So dance, it's our way to say goodbye
Yes, all we have to do is

Suddenly, the scenery got transformed to a kind of huge stage with giant spotlights. Everybody was wearing ABBA-themed spandexes while dancing one last dance.

EVERYBODY - Dance while the music still goes on
This is no time for crying
Dance, don't you hear them play our song
God knows that we've been trying
But we didn't make it 'cause nothing's the same
We just couldn't help it, nobody's to blame
So dance while the music still goes on
And let it be our last goodbye

All of a sudden, all the spotlights illuminated Donna appearing from behind while the marimba intro of Mamma Mia began to play.

(Song: Mamma Mia)

DONNA - I was cheated by you and I think you know when
So I made up my mind, it must come to an end
Look at me now, will I ever learn?
I don't know how but I suddenly lose control
There's a fire within my soul

Rosie and Tanya appeared next to her, recreating their iconic dynamos pose.

DONNA & THE DYNAMOS - Just one look and I can hear a bell ring
One more look and I forget everything, woah

EVERYBODY - Mamma Mia, here I go again
My my, how can I resist you?
Mamma Mia, does it show again
My my, just how much I've missed you?

SOPHIE - Yes, I've been brokenhearted
Blue since the day we parted
Why, why did I ever let you go?

EVERYBODY - Mamma Mia, now I really know
My my, I should not have let you go

Then, the younger versions of Ruby and Fernando appeared next to their respective legacy versions.

FERNANDO & YOUNG FERNANDO - I've been angry and sad about things that you do

RUBY & YOUNG RUBY - I can't count all the times that I've told you "we're through"

Likewise, the young versions of the dynamos appeared.

YOUNG DYNAMOS - And when you go, when you slam the door
I think you know that you won't be away too long
You know that I'm not that strong

GIRLS - Just one look

BOYS - And I can hear a bell ring

GIRLS – One more look

BOYS - And I forget everything, woah

EVERYBODY - Mamma Mia, here I go again
My my, how can I resist you?
Mamma Mia, does it show again
My my, just how much I've missed you?

RUBY - Yes, I've been brokenhearted
Blue since the day we parted
Why, why did I ever let you go?

EVERYBODY - Mamma Mia, now I really know
My my, I should not have let you go

Suddenly, Donna fell but got caught by Sam. Joined by everybody, they posed for one last cast photo.

Here is where the story ends, this is goodbye...

THE END

Ending credits
(Song: I'm Still Alive)

DONNA (Meryl Streep - off screen) - I was a loser then
But I'm a winner now
I'd do it all again
'Cause now I know how
How everything in life comes down to this, at last
Surviving, and living
Determined not to give in
And I'm still alive
My life is rolling on
Gently, from day to day
Memories will fade away
Yes, I'm still alive
The agony is gone
My mind is slowly waking
And my heart has ceased its aching
I'm still alive
I took so many blows
(Took so many blows.)
I cried a sea of tears
And only heaven knows
How I could stand the fears
I think of all the nights I lay alone, and scared
All shattered, and crying
And thinking I was dying
But I'm still alive
My life is rolling on
Gently, from day to day
Memories will fade away
Yes, I'm still alive
The agony is gone
My mind is slowly waking
And my heart has ceased its aching
I'm still alive
Yes I'm still alive
My life is rolling on
Gently, from day to day
Memories will fade away
Yes, I'm still alive
The agony is gone
My mind is slowly waking
And my heart has ceased its aching
I'm still alive
I'm still alive

Donna is forever alive in our hearts.
