You guessed it... I love musicals. This lovely number is from Miss Saigon. And so speaks to my inner closet romantic. I've never seen it, only heard the music.. but from what I gather.. an American GI falls in love with a Vietnamese girl... is a very pretty song. He wants to take her home with him, away from the ugliness of the war..
I suggest finding it and listening... would put a link in here for a listening experience, but don't know how :) Anyhoos... "Last Night of the World" from Miss Saigon....
Man: In a place that won't let us feel
In a life where nothing seems real
I have found you
I have found you
Woman: In a world that's moving to fast
In a world where nothing can last
I will hold you
I will hold you
Man: Our lives will change when tomorrow comes
Woman: Tonight our hearts drown the distant drums
Man: And we'll have music all right
Tearing the night
Together: A song
Played on a solo saxophone
A crazy sound
A lonely sound
A cry that tells us love goes on and on
Played on a solo saxophone
It’s telling me to hold you tight
And dance like it’s the last night of the world
Man: On the other side of the earth
There’s a place where life still has worth
I will take you
Woman: I'll go with you
Man: You wont believe all the things you'll see
I know cause you'll see them all in me
Together: If we're together that's when
We'll hear it again
A song
Played on a solo saxophone
A crazy sound
A lonely sound
A cry that tells us love goes on and on
Played on a solo saxophone
It’s telling me to hold you tight
And dance like it’s the last night of the world
Woman: Dreams were all I ever knew
Man: Dreams, you won't need when I'm through
Together: Anywhere
We may be
I will sing with you, a song...
So stay with me and hold me tight
And dance like it’s the last night of the world
