Stephen Sondheim - Finale (Pa**ion) lyrics

[CLARA] I'm filling up our room Our little room With every flower in bloom I'll have the fire lit The table set I'll wear the blue chemise Imagining your fingers touching mine Imagining our room The bed, the secrecy The world outside Your mouth on mine [SOLDIERS] The town, it Is remote, isn't it? And provincial Don't you think? [LUDOVIC] The time has come to face the truth Signorina [ATTENDANTS] This sterile little town These pompous little men [SOLDIERS] This military madness [ATTENDANTS & SOLDIERS] Uniforms, uniforms [RICCI] An unattractive woman Is easily deceived (Giorgio picks up Fosca's letter, opens it, and starts to read.) [GIORGIO, spoken] My dearest Giorgio The end is near. The time has come for me to surrender life gracefully. These past two days since you have left, since we were together, have been a revelation (sung) Now at last I see what comes from feeling loved Strange, how merely feeling loved [GIORGIO & FOSCA] You see things clearly Things I feared Like the world itself I now love dearly I want to live Now I want to live [FOSCA] Just from being loved All that pain I nursed inside For all those years [GIORGIO] All that vain and bitter self-concern [GIORGIO & FOSCA] All those tears and all that pride Have vanished into air [FOSCA] I don't want to leave [GIORGIO] Now that I am loved [FOSCA] I don't want to leave [GIORGIO & FOSCA] Everywhere I turn You are there [FOSCA] Everywhere I look Things are different [GIORGIO & FOSCA] Everything seems right Everything seems possible Every moment bursts with feeling Why is love so easy to give And so hard to receive? [FOSCA] But though I want to live I now can leave With what I never knew: I'm someone to be loved [GIORGIO] I'm someone to be loved [FOSCA] And that I learned from you [COMPANY] I don't know how I let you So far inside my mind But there you are and there you will stay How could I ever wish you away? I see now I was blind [FOSCA] And should you die tomorrow Another thing I see: [GIORGIO] Your love will live in me... [FOSCA] Your love will live in me... [GIORGIO & GROUP 1] Your love will live in me... [FOSCA & GROUP 2] Your love will live in me... [GIORGIO & GROUP 1] Your love will live in me... [FOSCA & GROUP 2] Your love will live in me... [GIORGIO & GROUP 1] Your love will live in me... [FOSCA & GROUP 2] Your love will live in me... [GIORGIO] Your love will live in me... [FOSCA] Your love will live in me... [GIORGIO] Your love will live in me...
