original broadway cast - yurii's decision - doctor zhivago lyrics
[yurii]
why of all the places in the world?
who of all the people to be living there?
dashing all the careful plans
of a conscientious man
who tried to leave things as they were
after every touch we never felt
after every word we left unspoken
why is heaven testing me?
is it chance or destiny
that this road leads only to her?
day after day, year after year
can i resist when she is near?
all my life
i have tried to live with honour
and be free
from the shadow of disgrace
but like father, like son
it’s already begun
everywhere i turn
i still see her face
for the sake
of my family’s survival
i must silence
the beating of my heart
for a man is defined
by the strength of his mind
by the sum of his deeds
when his dreams fall apart
leave the stars in the sky
let the night fires die
hide the sun in a cloud of grey
and if ever i should meet her
on a village street
i’ll very calmly turn
and walk the other way
i am yurii andreyevich zhivago!
i will not leave a legacy of shame
for a man is defined
by the strength of his mind
by his moral foundation
in the face of temptation
and by god, when i die
let my son know that i
was a man who lived up to his name!
a man who lived up to his name!
