Gustave, it`s alright, it`s me
 
 Gustave, please take him away
 
 I`m so sorry
 
 Please forgive him, he meant no harm
 
 
 How could you think I wouldn`t guess
 
 What do you mean?
 
 How could you think I wouln`t know?
 
 Oh, no
 
 
 Do you have something to confess?
 
 Please don`t make me
 
 I want the truth right now, if so
 
 
 Once upon another time
 
 You went off and left me alone
 
 But that`s not all you did
 
 You left me with a son
 
 
 Ever since that other time
 
 I wished, how I wished you`d have known
 
 I kept the secret hid, the secret my marriage forbid
 
 What else could I have done?
 
 
 Just live. Our son
 
 Just live. My son
 
 Just give what I could give
 
 And take what little I deserve
 
 
 My own flesh and blood
 
 And even he recoils in horror from me
 
 Just like his mother
 
 
 Forgive me, I beg you, if you can
 
 I`ve brought you nothing but woe
 
 Tomorrow night, I`ll sing with all my might
 
 Sing for you again, then we`ll go
 
 
 From out of ugliness, such light
 
 From out of darkness, such a flame
 
 In him, my wrongness is made right
 
 And yet he loathes me just the same
 
 
 So let him shun me in disgust
 
 Let him flee this cursed face
 
 If I must hide from him, I must
 
 Yet shall he be my saving grace
 
 
 Oh, Christine, my Christine
 
 If it`s ture, I`ve no reason to live
 
 Then, Christine, them our boy
 
 Shall have all I can give
 
 
 Ah, Christine
 
 All I create on this earth
 
 All that I`ll never be worth
 
 All shall be his
 
 
 Ten long years and he casts us aside
 
 Ten whole years, this is how we`re repaid
 
 Ten dark years of toil and tears
 
 And now what we`ve worked for will go to that child
 
 
 All our hopes were at last in our grasp
 
 All the dreams and the plans that we laid
 
 Everthing is vanishing
 
 And we get discarded, rejected, reviled
 
 
 All of the bonds in between is now torn
 
 All of the love that we gave him was worn
 
 All would be ours
 
 If that bastard have nevet been born
