A musician recalls loving music through his father’s piano abilities.
View Lyrics
I watched and wondered As he played show tunes Miles off from rock and roll.
What he loved he taught me. Now music's what I do. And often when I'm writing, In my hands, Dad's there too.
If I sing you are the music. If I fly you're why I'm good. If my hands can find some magic You're the one who said they could.
When the child that's still inside me, Finds a song in empty air. When there is joy in making music It is you who put it there.
My dad grew old. His hands grew numb. And now he cannot play.
I came to visit. He sat and asked me "How it could be this way?"
I couldn't find an answer. I played this tune for him instead. My father sat there smiling For he knew what it said.
If I sing you are the music. If I love you taught me how. Every day your heart is beating In the man that I am now.
If my ears are tuned to wander. If when I reach the chords are there. If there is joy in making music, It's a joy that we both share.
I never told you. It took time till I could see That if I sing you are the music And you'll always sing in me.
Yes you'll always live in me.

Raoul dwells on his troubled marriage with Christine.
View Lyrics
BARTENDER (spoken) Oh, buddy, don't you think you've had enough? It's practically morning already
RAOUL (spoken) One more, I said
BARTENDER (spoken) Alright, alright My shift is over anyway, so let's settle the bill, okay? Jeez, you're in a bad way ain't you? Worse than most that end up here. Here's the morning shift, maybe he'll know what to do with you
RAOUL (spoken) Yes, what to do with me That's the question, isn't it? That's always been the question Ever since the beginning (sung) She looks for sympathy I give her sorrow She asks for honesty I've none to borrow
She needs my tender kiss She begs it of me I give her ugliness Why does she love me?
She yearns for higher things Things I can't give her The rush that music brings I can't deliver
And even when she sings And soars above me I try to clip her wings Why does she love me?
One more drink, sir That's what I need Don't you think, sir? Leave the hurt behind
Do you hear me? Another drink
She wants the man I was Husband and father At least, she thinks she does She needn't bother
Beneath this mask I wear There's nothing of me Just horror, shame, despair Why does she love me?
How 'bout you, sir? Tell me what am I to do, sir? Leave the hurt behind
MEG Morning, Bernie, coffee please Hurry up before I freeze I'll just take it black (spoken) Mother said, I'd find you here
RAOUL (spoken) Miss Giry
MEG (spoken) Do you know where you are?
RAOUL (spoken) Hell, I imagine...
MEG (spoken) Around here they call it suicide hall It's where people end up When they don't know where else to go The hopeless, the desperate A good place to step off the side Off the pier and quietly vanish
RAOUL You seem to be a regular
MEG Me? I come here to swim (sung) This town is coarse and cold and mean It's hard to keep your conscience clean Faceless in the crowd Anything's allowed
And so I come at dawn each day Come to wash it all away Sink into the sea, blue and cool and kind Let it set me free, let the past unwind Leave the hurt behind
(spoken) You should never have come to America. It's not a place for people like you and Christine. It's too easy to forget who you are and where you belong. That's why Mother says you must leave here. Now, take your wife and the boy and go.
RAOUL (spoken) Leave? What about tonight? The concert, the money? Am I to just run away from him?
MEG (spoken) When the sun rises tomorrow We can all start again, clean (sung) Sail across the sea Put us out of mind Close your eyes and flee Let yourself stay blind Leave this place behind

An adult reflects on his complex high school past.
View Lyrics
And he goes along, Getting hurt, getting mad, fighting fights that are over. And unless I'm strong, All my senses are carried away.
I can feel my hand, my trembling hand, On Michelle's angora sweater. I can hear my band, that awful band, Only now it sounds much better.
I can see a kid, the kid I use to be, On the stage, on the field, in the lunch line. I can feel him tugging at me, Every time I think I don't care, I blink, And he's there again, he's there again.
Fighting ancient wrongs, Humming old hit songs in my head. Singing come along, come along, Come along for the ride. To a time and place, I could not forget if I tried.
There again, He's there again.
And I never know, when the breeze'll blow, With a rush of old sensations. Why the kid should wake, And my heart should ache, Every time I smell carnations.
Something rings a bell, Anything at all, All it takes is a slam of a locker.
Or the switch from summer to fall, A change of season seems hardly reason, But there he goes again, he's there again.
Fighting ancient wrongs, Humming old hit songs in my head. Singing come along, come along, Come along for the ride.
To a time and place, I could not forget if I tried. There he goes again, Hummin' his songs.
He's there again, There again. There's a kid inside.

Floyd reflects on his life as he is about to die in a cave.
View Lyrics
Is it endless and empty and you wander on your own? Slowly forget about the folks that you've known Or does rising bread fill up the air From open kitchens everywhere Familiar faces far as you can see, like a family
Do we live, is it like a little town? Do we get to look back down at who we love? Are we above, are we everywhere, are we anywhere at all? Do we hear a trumpet call us and we're by your side?
Will I want, will I wish For all the things that I should have done? Longing to finish what I only just begun
Or has a shining truth been waiting there For all the questions everywhere In a world of wondering, suddenly you know And you will always know
Will my mama be there waiting for me? Smiling like the ways she does And holding out her arms As she calls my name She will hold me just the same
Only Heaven knows how glory goes What each of us was meant to be In the starlight, that is what we are I can see so far

Is it the wind there, over my shoulder? Is it your voice calling quietly? Over the hilltop, down in the valley Never alone for you walk with me
When evening falls and the air gets colder When shadows cover the road I am following Will I be alone there in the darkness? No, not alone, not alone and I'll never be
Never alone you are walking You're walking with me

DAUGHTERS Alas, there's not one maiden breast, Which seems to feel the moral beauty. Of making worldly interest, Subordinate to sense of duty.
FREDERIC Oh is there not one maiden here Whose homely face and bad complexion, Have caused all hope to disappear Of ever winning mans affection
To such a one if such there be I swear by heavens arch above you if you will cast your eyes on me However plain you'll be I'll love you, However plain you'll be.
If you will cast your eyes on me However plain you'll be I'll love you, I'll love you. I'll love, I'll lo-o-ove you.
DAUGHTERS Alas there's not one maiden here Whose homely face and bad complexion has caused all hope to disappear Of ever winning mans affection
FREDERIC Not one?
DAUGHTERS No, no not one.
FREDERIC Not one?
DAUGHTERS No, no.
MABEL Yes, one!
DAUGHTERS 'Tis Mabel!

I look damn good in a hat My black dress hides the fact I don't want sympathy He was here and now he's gone The music still plays on I see the keys And I freeze No surprise This is how he Thinks I'll be When he dies
I'll be gracious and aloof Or I'll climb on the roof Shouting obscenities He was here and now he's gone The music still plays on
The music still plays on And on and on and on Loud and fast and clear The music still plays on And on and on and on Even though you're not here My dear
Married too young I was brash, I was bold Married too young And divorced far too old
Husband sleeker than a horse He rears and flies off course I liked his pedigree Love is here and then it's gone The music still plays on
The music still plays on And on and on and on As my men depart The music still plays on And on and on and on Transmitted through my foolish heart
So, stay away I'm okay, I'm ahead What came to pass Once and as one is dead
Love is stupid and it bleeds It satisfies my needs I think it's wonderful Once it was wonderful Love is here and then it's gone The music still plays on They were here and now their gone The music still plays on And on and on
