Andrew Lloyd Webber - Peter's Denial

MAID
I think I've seen you somewhere
I remember,
You were with that man
They took away
I recognize your face
PETER
You've got the wrong man lady
I don't know him
And I wasn't where he was tonight
Never near the place
SOLDIER
That's strange
For I am sure I saw you with him
You were right by his side
And yet you deny
PETER I tell you I was never ever with him
OLD MAN
But I saw you too
He looked just like you
PETER
I don't know him
MARY
Peter, don't you know
What you have said
You've gone and cut him dead
PETER
I had to do it don't you see
Or else they'd go for me
MARY
It's what he told us you would do
I wonder how he knew
