Love, love changes everything
Hands and faces, earth and sky Love, love changes everything How you live and how you die Love can make the summer fly Or a night seem like a lifetime Yes love, love changes everything Now I tremble at your name Nothing in the world will ever be the same Love, love changes everything Days are longer, words mean more Love, love changes everything Pain is deeper than before Love will turn your world around And that world will last for ever Yes love, love changes everything Brings you glory, brings you shame Nothing in the world will ever be the same Off into the world we go Planning futures, shaping years Love bursts in and suddenly All our wisdom disappears Love makes fools of everyone All the rules we make are broken Yes love, love changes everyone Live or perish in its flame Love will never, never let you be the same Love will never, never let you be the same! |

Midnight, not a sound from the pavement
Has the moon lost her memory? She is smiling alone In the lamplight, the withered leaves collect at my feet And the wind begins to moan Memory, All alone in the moonlight I can smile at the old days I was beautiful then I remember the time I knew what happiness was Let the memory live again Every streetlamp seems to beat A fatalistic warning Someone mutters and the street lamp gutters And soon It will be morning Daylight I must wait for the sunrise I must think of a new life And I mustn't give in. When the dawn comes, tonight will be a memory too And a new day will begin Burnt out ends of smokey days The stale cold smell of morning The streetlamp dies, another night is over Another day is dawning... Optional verse: Sunlight through the trees in summer, endless masquerading... Like a flower, as the day is breaking, The memory is fading... Touch me, It's so easy to leave me All alone with my memory Of my days in the sun... If you touch me, you'll understand what happiness is Look, a new day has begun. |

You were once
my one companion . . . you were all that mattered . . . You were once a friend and father - then my world was shattered . . . Wishing you were somehow here again . . . wishing you were somehow near . . . Sometimes it seemed if I just dreamed, somehow you would be here . . . Wishing I could hear your voice again . . . knowing that I never would . . . Dreaming of you won't help me to do all that you dreamed I could . . . Passing bells and sculpted angels, cold and monumental, seem, for you, the wrong companions - you were warm and gentle . . . Too many years fighting back tears . . . Why can't the past just die . . .? Wishing you were somehow here again . . . knowing we must say goodbye . . . Try to forgive . . . teach me to live . . . give me the strength to try . . . No more memories, no more silent tears . . . No more gazing across the wasted years . . . Help me say goodbye. |

Che:
Oh what a circus, oh what a show Argentina has gone to town Over the death of an acress called Eva Peron. We've all gone crazy, mourning all day and mourning all night Falling over ourselves to get all of the misery right Oh what an exit, that's how to go. When they're ringing your curtain down Demand to be burried like Eva Peron It's quite a sunset and good for the country in aroundabout way We've made the front page of all the world's papers to day But who is this Santa Evita? Why all this howling, hysterical sorrow? What kind of goddess has lived among us? How will we ever get by without her? She had her moments she had some style The best show in town was the crowd Outside Casa Rosade crying "Eva Peron" But that's all gone now and soon As the smoke from the funeral clears We're all gone see and how she did nothing for years Salve regina mater misericordiae Vita dulcedo et spes nostra Salve salve regina Ad te clamamus exules filii Eva Ad te suspiramus gementes et flentes O clemens o pia You let down your people Evita You were supposed to have been immortal That's all they wanted not much to ask for But in the end you could not deliver Sing you fools but you got it wrong Enjoy your prayers because you haven't got long Your queen is dead, your king is through She's not coming back to you Showbusiness kept us all alive Since Seventeen October 1945 But the star has gone, the glamour's worn thin That's a pretty bad state for a state to be in Instead of government, we had a stage Instead of ideas, a primadonna's rage Instead of hope, we were given a crowd She didn't say much but she said it loud Sing you fools but you got it wrong Enjoy your prayers because you haven't got long Your queen is dead, your king is through She's not coming back to you Salve regina mater misericordiae Vita dulcedo et spes nostra Salve salve regina Peron Ad te clamamus exules filii Eva Ad te suspiramus gementes et flentes O clemens o pia Eva: Don't cry for me Argentina For I am ordinary, unimportant And undeserving of such attention Unless we all are, I think we all are So share my glory, so share my coffin So share my glory, so share my coffin Che: It's our funeral too |

Andrew Lloyd Webber
from _Aspects of Love_ Seeing is believing And in my arms I see her She's here, really here Really mine now She seems at home here Seeing is believing I dreamt that it would be her At last life is full Life is fine now Whatever happens, one thing is certain Each time I see a train go by I'll think of us The night, the sky, forever Seeing is believing My life is just beginning I'm touched and my head won't stop spinning >From winning her love He's young, very young But a feeling... I feel I know him Seeing is believing And I like what I see I like where I am What I'm feeling What are we doing? Can you believe it? A starving actress and a starstruck boy Oh well, I might as well enjoy The moment She's warm, and she's wild And appealing I feel I know her Seeing is believing I never thought I'd be here Is this really real Or am I dreaming? No way of knowing Where this is leading It's fun forgetting who we are Who cares when now the world is far behind us? Seeing is believing My life is just beginning We touched and my head won't stop spinning >From winning your love |

Jellicle cats come out tonight
Jellicle cats come one come all The Jellicle Moon is shining bright Jellicles come to the Jellicle Ball Jellicle cats are black and white Jellicle cats are rather small Jellicle cats are merry and bright And pleasant to hear when we caterwaul Jellicle cats have cheerful faces Jellicle cats have bright black eyes We like to practice our airs and graces And wait for the Jellicle Moon to rise Jellicle cats develop slowly Jellicle cats are not too big Jellicle cats are roly poly We know how to dance a gavotte and a jig Until the Jellicle Moon appears We make our toilet and take our repose Jellicles wash behind their ears Jellicles dry between their toes Jellicle cats are black and white Jellicle cats are of moderate size Jellicles jump like a jumping jack Jellicle cats have moonlit eyes We're quiet enough in the morning hours We're quiet enough in the afternoon Reserving our Terpsichorean powers To dance by the light of the Jellicle Moon Jellicle cats are black and white Jellicle cats (as we said) are small If it happens to be a stormy night We will practice a caper or two in the hall If it happens the sun is shining bright You would say we have nothing to do at all We are resting and saving ourselves to be bright For the Jellicle Moon and Jellicle Ball Jellicle cats come out tonight Jellicle cats come one come all The Jellicle Moon is shining bright Jellicles come to the Jellicle Ball |

I close my eyes
Drew back the curtain To see for certain What I thought I knew Far, far away Someone was weeping But the world was sleeping Any dream will do I wore my coat With golden lining Bright colors shining Wonderful and new And in the east The dawn was breaking And the world was waking Any dream will do A crash of drums A flash of light My golden coat Flew out of sight Colors faded into darkness I was left alone May I return To the beginning The light is dimming And the dream is too The world and I We are still waiting Still hesitating Any dream will do Any dream will Any dream will Any dream will do Give me my colored coat My amazing colored coat Give me my colored coat My amazing colored coat |

- Everything's Alright -
# MARY MAGDALENE ; Try not to get worried, try not to turn on to Problems that upset you, oh. Don't you know Everything's alright, yes, everything's fine, And we want you to sleep well tonight. Let the world turn without you tonight. If we try, we'll get by, so forget all about us tonight. # APOSTLES' WIVES ; Everything's alright, yes, everything's alright, yes. # MARY MAGDALENE ; Sleep and I shall soothe you, calm you, and anoint you... Myrrh for your hot forehead, oh. Then you'll feel Everything's alright, yes, everything's fine. And it's cool, and the ointment's sweet For the fire in your head and feet. Close your eyes, close your eyes And relax, think of nothing tonight. # APOSTLES' WIVES ; Everything's alright, yes, everything's alright, yes. # JUDAS ; Woman your fine ointment, brand new and expensive Could have been saved for the poor. Why has it been wasted? We could have raised maybe Three hundred silver pieces or more. People who are hungry, people who are starving They matter more than your feet and hair. # MARY MAGDALENE ; Try not to get worried, try not to turn on to Problems that upset you, oh. Don't you know Everything's alright, yes, everything's fine, And we want you to sleep well tonight. Let the world turn without you tonight. If we try, we?l get by, so forget all about us tonight. # APOSTLES' WIVES ; Everything's alright, yes, everything's alright, yes. # JESUS ; Surely you're not saying we have the resources To save the poor from their lot? There will be poor always, pathetically struggling Look at the good things you've got. Think while you still have me! Move while you still see me! You'll be lost, you'll be so sorry when I'm gone. # MARY MAGDALENE ; Sleep and I shall soothe you, calm you and anoint you... Myrrh for your hot forehead, oh. Then you'll feel Everything's alright, yes, everything's fine. And it's cool and the ointment's sweet For the fire in your head and feet. Close your eyes, close your eyes, and relax.... # APOSTLES' WIVES ; Everything's alright, yes, everything's alright, yes...... |

Close every door to me, hide all the world from me
Bar all the windows and shut out the light Do what you want with me, hate me and laugh at me Darken my daytime and torture my night If my life were important I would ask will I live or die But I know the answers lie far from this world Close every door to me, keep those I love from me Children of Israel are never alone For I know I shall find my own peace of mind For I have been promised a land of my own Just give me a number instead of my name Forget all about me and let me decay I do not matter, I'm only one person Destroy me completely then throw me away If my life were important I would ask will I live or die But I know the answers lie far from this world Close every door to me, keep those I love from me Children of Israel are never alone For we know we shall find our own peace of mind For we have been promised a land of our own |

GEORGE:
I want to be The first man you remember, I want to be The last man you forget. I want to be The one you always turn to, I want to be The one you won't regret. May I be first To say you look delightful? May I be first To dance you round the floor? The very first To see your face by moonlight? The very first To walk you to your door? JENNY: (playing to George) Well, young man, I'd be delighted! There is nothing I would rather do! What could be a sweeter memory Than sharing my first dance with you? GEORGE: I want to be The first man you remember... JENNY: The very first To sweep me off my feet. GEORGE: I want to be The one you always turn to... JENNY: The first to make My young heart miss a beat. (He gently takes her in a dance hold and they tentatively try a few steps around the terrace) GEORGE: Seems the stars are far below us... JENNY: The moon has never felt so close before... (looking up at George) Our first dance will be forever... GEORGE: And may it lead to many more! I want to be The first man you remember... JENNY: The very first To sweep me off my feet. GEORGE: I want to be The one you always turn to JENNY: The first to make My young heart miss a beat. (Once again they 'take to the floor', this time in a fuller, more formal dance. The atmosphere is dreamlike and beguiling, and Rose and Hugo are drawn into the dance. Alex declines Jenny's attempts to draw him into the dance as well. At the end of the sequence George leads Jenny back to his seat and the dance dissolves) GEORGE: I want to be The one you always turn to I want to be The one you won't regret... GEORGE AND JENNY: The very first... The very first... |

Anything but lonely
Anything but empty rooms There's so much in life to share What's the sense when no one else is there? Anything but lonely Anything but only me Quiet is in too much space That's the thing that's hard to face And you have a right to go But you should also know That I won't be alone for long The long days with nothing said Are not what lie ahead I'm sorry, but I know that's wrong Anything but lonely Anything but passing time Alone is what I'll never be While there's still some life in me And I'm still young, don't forget It isn't over yet So many hearts for me to thrill If you're not here to say How good I look each day I'll have to find someone who will Anything but lonely Anything but empty rooms There's so much in life to share What's the sense when no one else is there? What's the sense when no one else is there |

DON JUAN (PHANTOM)
You have come here in pursuit of your deepest urge, in pursuit of that wish, which till now has been silent, silent . . . I have brought you, that our passions may fuse and merge - in your mind you've already succumbed to me dropped all defences completely succumbed to me - now you are here with me: no second thoughts, you've decided, decided . . . Past the point of no return - no backward glances: our games of make believe are at an end . . . Past all thought of "if" or "when" - no use resisting: abandon thought, and let the dream descend . . . What raging fire shall flood the soul? What rich desire unlocks its door? What sweet seduction lies before us . . .? Past the point of no return, the final threshold - what warm, unspoken secrets will we learn? Beyond the point of no return . . . AMINTA (CHRISTINE) You have brought me to that moment where words run dry, to that moment where speech disappears into silence, silence . . . I have come here, hardly knowing the reason why . . . In my mind, I've already imagined our bodies entwining defenceless and silent - and now I am here with you: no second thoughts, I've decided, decided . . . Past the point of no return - no going back now: our passion-play has now, at last, begun . . . Past all thought of right or wrong - one final question: how long should we two wait, before we're one . . .? When will the blood begin to race the sleeping bud burst into bloom? When will the flames, at last, consume us . . .? BOTH Past the point of no return the final threshold - the bridge is crossed, so stand and watch it burn . . . We've passed the point of no return . . . |
