andrew lloyd webber - why does she love me lyrics
-one more!
-oh, buddy, don’t you think you had enough?
it’s practically morning already…
-one more, i said!
-allright, allright, my shift is over anyway. let’s settle the bill, ok? jeez, you’re in a bad way, ain’t you? worst than most that end up here.
here’s the morning shift. he’ll know what to do with you.
raoul: yes… what to do with me, that’s the question, isn’t it?
that’s always been the question, ever since the beginning
she looks for sympathy, i give her sorrow
she asks for honesty, i’ve none to borrow
she needs my tender kiss, she begs it of me
i give her uglyness, why does she love me?
she yearns for higher things, things i can’t give her
that rush that music brings, i can’t deliver
and even when she sings and sores above me, i try to clip her wings
why does she love me?
one more drink, sir, that’s what i need it to think, sir, leave the hurt behind
do you hear me, another drink!
she wants the man i was, husband and father
at least she thinks she does, she needn’t bother
beneath this mask i wear, there’s nothing of me
just horror, shame, dispair
why does she love me?
how about you, sir, tell me what i am to do, sir
leave the hurt behind…
meg: morning, bernie! coffee, please. hurry up before i freeze i’ll just take it black
mother said i’d find you here
raoul: miss giry.
meg: do you know where you are?
raoul: h-ll, i imagine
meg: around here, they call it “suicide hall”. it’s where people end up when they don’t know where else to go.
the hopeless, the desperate, it’s a good place to step off the side of the pier and quietly vanish
raoul: it seems you are a regular
meg: me? i come here to swim
this town is co-rs- and cold and mean
it’s hard to keep your concience clean
faceless in the crowd, anything’s allowed
and so i come at dawn each day, come to wash it all away
sink into the see, blue and cool and calm
let it set me free, let the past unwind. leave the hurt behind.
you should never have come to america. it’s not a place for people like you and christine. it’s too easy to forget who you are and where you belong. that’s why mother says you should leave here. now! take your wife and the boy and go!
raoul: leave? what about tonight? the concert? the money? am i just to run away? from him?
meg: when the sun rises tomorrow, we can all start again… clean
sail accross the sea, put us out of mind
close your eyes and flee, let youself stay blind
leave this place behind
