[ti:Why Does She Love Me?]
[ar:Andrew Lloyd Webber]
[al:Love Never Dies]
[01:05.66]One more
[01:06.72]Oh, buddy, don't you think you've had enough?
[01:09.09]It's practically morning already
[01:10.72]One more, I said
[01:12.64]Alright, alright
[01:15.51]
[01:16.33]My shift is over anyway, so let's settle the bill, okay?
[01:20.62]
[01:21.86]Jeez, you're in a bad way ain't you?
[01:24.37]Worse than most that end up here
[01:27.43]Here's the morning shift, maybe he'll know what to do with you
[01:31.55]Yes, what to do with me
[01:35.24]That's the question, isn't it?
[01:38.86]That's always been the question
[01:42.87]Ever since the beginning
[01:50.00]She looks for sympathy
[01:53.87]I give her sorrow
[01:58.06]She asks for honesty
[02:02.31]I've none to borrow
[02:06.36]She needs my tender kiss
[02:11.30]She begs it off me
[02:14.19]I give her ugliness
[02:18.12]Why does she love me?
[02:23.93]She yearns for higher things
[02:27.87]Things I can't give her
[02:31.81]The rush that music brings
[02:35.56]I can't deliver
[02:39.56]And even when she sings
[02:42.80]And soars above me
[02:46.62]I try to clip her wings
[02:50.12]Why does she love me?
[02:55.81]
[02:56.37]One more drink, sir
[02:59.74]That's what I need
[03:00.81]Don't you think, sir?
[03:03.74]Leave the hurt behind
[03:12.92]Do you hear me?
[03:13.53]Another drink
[03:15.52]
[03:20.28]She wants the man I was
[03:24.15]Husband and father
[03:28.02]At least, she thinks she does
[03:31.66]She needn't bother
[03:35.53]Beneath this mask I wear
[03:39.03]There's nothing of me
[03:42.72]Just horror, shame, despair
[03:45.90]Why does she love me?
[03:52.59]How 'bout you, sir?
[03:55.84]Tell me what am I to do, sir?
[03:59.59]Leave the hurt behind
[04:06.69]
[04:10.74]Morning, Bernie, coffee please
[04:12.31]Hurry up before I freeze
[04:13.81]I'll just take it black
[04:17.25]
[04:18.06]Mother said, I'd find you here
[04:20.18]Miss Giry
[04:22.99]Do you know where you are?
[04:24.99]Hell, I imagine
[04:27.25]Around here they call it suicide hall
[04:30.87]
[04:32.12]It's where people end up
[04:32.93]When they don't know where else to go
[04:35.93]hopeless, The the desperate
[04:38.15]The good place to step off the side
[04:39.51]Of the pier and quietly vanish
[04:42.33]You seem to be a regular
[04:44.45]Me?
[04:45.83]I come here to swim
[04:48.51]This town is coarse and cold and mean
[04:53.14]It's hard to keep your conscience clean
[04:57.84]Faceless in the crowd
[05:02.46]Anything's allowed
[05:06.65]And so I come at dawn each day
[05:11.08]Come to wash it all away
[05:15.52]Sink into the sea, blue and cool and kind
[05:24.14]Let it set me free, let the past unwind
[05:33.08]Leave the hurt behind
[05:40.46]
[05:42.58]You should never have come to America
[05:45.02]It's not a place for people like you and Christine
[05:48.52]It's too easy to forget who you are and where you belong
[05:52.77]That's why Mother says you must leave here
[05:55.33]Now, take your wife the and boy and go
[05:58.77]
[05:59.58]Leave?
[06:01.27]What about tonight?
[06:03.15]The concert, the money?
[06:05.34]Am I to just run away from him?
[06:08.88]When the sun rises tomorrow
[06:10.38]We can all start again, clean
[06:13.88]Sail across the sea
[06:18.06]Put us out of mind
[06:22.56]Close your eyes and flee
[06:26.76]Let yourself stay blind
[06:32.25]Leave this place behind
