john williams – far from the home i love lyrics
(tevye) he asked you to leave your father and mother
and join him in that frozen waste land and marry him
there.
(hodel) no papa, he did not asked me to go, i want to
go
(tevye) hodel!
(hodel) papa!
how can i hope to make you understand
why i do what i do,
why i must travel to a distant land,
far from the home i love.
once i was happily content to be
as i was, where i was,
close to the people who are close to me,
here in the home i love.
who could see that a man could come
who would change the shape of his dreams.
helpless now i stand with him,
watching older dreams grow dim.
oh, what a melancholy choice this is,
wanting home, wanting him,
closing my heart to ev’ry hope but his,
leaving the home i love,
there where my heart has settled long ago
i must go, i must go
who could imagine i’d be wand’ring so
far from the home i love
yet there with my love, i’m home.
papa, god alone knows when we shall see each other
again
(tevye) then we will leave it in his hands
