gatsby: an american myth - what of love, what of god lyrics
[myrtle]
picture the sea, the shores of america
the impossible dream
and now the coast of trees’ long gone
whisper the story of this place and all its bl++dy glory
look at it sparkle in new orleans:
(huh!)
glistening with hope and hidden horror
(huh!)
[wilson]
and what of love?
and what of god?
[myrtle]
(and what of love?)
love will not save you here!
(and what of god?)
not for a long time!
(and what of love?)
i played the hand that i’ve been given
(and what of god?)
judge me as if you wouldn’t!
and what a wonder to behold
but it was already behind us
with that first step upon the shore:
reaching for the light
and always+
[both]
+wanting more
[wilson] (spoken)
what do you want?
[myrtle]
(and what of love?)
love will not save you here!
(and what of god?)
not for a long time
(and what of love?)
[wilson]
i can be the man you once believed in
(and what of god?)
come on, keep up, let’s keep on trying!
[myrtle]
‘cause i believed in the man that you promised you would be
but look at me now, look what it cost me!
[wilson]
i won’t let you go
i won’t give you up
you’re still my wife, my life
in the eyes of god!
[myrtle]
god will not save you here!
(and what of god?)
and i’m done praying!
(and what of love?)
i can’t live the life that we’ve been given
(and what of god?)
i’m gonna try and be forgiven
(and what of love?)
[wilson]
love can still save us here!
[myrtle]
love will not save us!
(and what of god?)
[wilson]
and i’ll keep praying!
[myrtle]
and i’m done praying
(and what of love?)
[wilson]
i can change the life that we’ve been living!
[myrtle]
this ain’t living!
(and what of god?)
[wilson]
start again, a new beginning!
[all]
and what of love?
and what of god?
and what of love?
and what of god?
