I'm a lady when you kiss me, I'm a child when you are leaving, I'm a woman ev'ry time our bodies meet complete.
Long lost feelings stir inside me, used to think nights were for sleeping, being wanted is a thrill I never knew till you.
Now I'm alive, inside I'm glowing, I'm how I want to be, loving you I can be me, just me.
It's the first time when you touch me, now I long for rainy mornings, I am certain you're the last man in my life. I'm a woman ev'ry time our bodies meet complete.
Long lost feelings stir inside me, used to think nights were for sleeping, being wanted is a thrill I never knew till you.

Rose, an actress, begs for her lover Alex not to leave her.
View Lyrics
Anything but lonely, Anything but empty rooms. There's so much in life to share -- What's the sense when no one else is there?

Anything but lonely, Anything but only me. Quiet years in too much space: That's the thing that's hard to face, And ...

You have a right to go, But you should also know That I won't be alone for long. Long days with nothing said Are not what lie ahead -- I'm sorry, but I'm not that strong.

Anything but lonely, Anything but passing time. Lonely's what I'll never be, While there's still some life in me, And ...

I'm still young, don't forget, It isn't over yet -- So many hearts for me to thrill. If you're not here to say How good I look each day, I'll have to find someone who will.

Anything but lonely, Anything but empty rooms. There's so much in life to share -- What's the sense when no one else is there ...?

What's the sense when no one else is there ...?

A woman sings about setting her own rules and choosing her own path.
View Lyrics
Now, I'm standing here the sunlight is soft & warm. Is this a gentle paradise or only the eye of the storm? This time will I just give in when the rain starts to pour down? This time will I start to swim or will I start to drown?

Now, I'm walking alone as the wind circles all around. Waiting for the slightest move or the first unexpected sound. This time will I raise my shield when the hunters spot their prey? This time will I stay in the field or will I run away?

From who I am, And what I want, And what I can find, And who I will be.

Now, I'm moving along as the twilight begins to spread. I take in this moment as the clouds gather overhead. This time will I see what's true when the lightening streaks through the grey? This time will it blind my view or will it light the way?

To who I am, And what I want, And what I can find, And who I will be.

And all these questions in me, are fading away as I suddenly see; I can embrace everything behind me. And find the place where I finally find me.

Now, I run with you as a new sun begins to rise. I can see forever through these endless big blue skies.

Now is the only time. Here is the only place. This is all I want to be.

This time I can see the view. This time the sun will shine through. This time. This time. This time.

LUCILLE: You don't know this man You don't know a thing You come here with these horrifying stories These contemptible conceits And you think you understand how a mans heart beats And you don't know a thing
You don't know this man You don't even try When a man writes his mother every Sunday Pays his bills before they're due Works so hard to feed his family There's your murderer for you And you stand there spittin' words That you know aren't true Then you don't know this man I don't think you could
You don't have the right to know A man that wise and good He is a decent man He is an honest man And you don't know And you never will
Not from me, not from anyone who knows him Not a morsel, not a crumb, not a clue I have nothing more to say to you

I done lost my ugly spare I am cheerful now got the warmth all over To smother my worried brow Oh the girl I use to be She ain't me no more I closed the door
On the girl I was before
Feeling fine and full of bliss What I really wanna say is this
I never has seen snow All the same I know Snow ain't so beautiful Can't be so beautiful Like my love is Like my love is
Nothing do compare Nothing anywhere with my love
A hundred things I see A twilight sky that tree But none so beautiful Not one so beautiful Like my love is Like my love is
Once you see his face None can take the place of my love
A stone rolled of my heart When I laid my eyes on that Near of me boy with that far away look And right from the start I saw a new horizon And a road to take me where I wanted to be took Needed to be took Needed to be took Oh!
I never have seen snow All the same I know Nothing will ever be Nothing can ever be Beautiful as my love is Like my love is to me Nothing is as beautiful to me

Ivy confesses to her classmate Nadia that Jason, who is gay, is the father of Ivy’s baby.
View Lyrics
NADIA Hey, if you say so... Y'know, I can't believe you missed rehearsal again It isn't all about you! It affects the rest of us, what you do Look, what's wrong with you?
IVY Nothing
NADIA What my brother broke your heart? Cause it sure broke mine when I heard he was seeing you Poor Ivy, stuck wanting the one thing she can't have
IVY You think you know me...
NADIA Yeah, you know what? I am so sick of you moping around when you've had The world handed to you because you're pretty I'd trade places with you in a heartbeat
IVY Remember back in 7th grade Endless games of truth or dare Double dates to Shea's arcades When I close my eyes I?m there I think my mother took this picture Back when were all just friends Memories that fade and flicker Burn again when I pretend
PETER Did you sleep with her?
JASON No.
IVY Life is short and life is strange Trouble now and troubled past Times have changed they rearrange And little girls grow up so fast Feel it how it grows inside me Swirling ball of anguished cries Haunted daunted so unwanted Feel its anger in me rise
Dream a dream then dash another Life is there to interrupt Someone out there call my mother Look at me mom all grown up
All those years she scrimped and saved And now of course it comes to this If only Ivy had behaved Or learned to stopped at just a kiss It hits me paralyzing shudder Face the music take a bow Just another unwed mother One more sad statistic now
Dream a dream and end another Life is there to interrupt Someone out there call my mother Look at me I'm all grown up Look at me I'm all grown up
Little lies and big decisions Who to tell and where to go Follow someone else's vision Or trust my own 'cause I don't know Am I suppose to love this child? Is it just that simple then? Tell me how this change will happen Tell me how and tell me when Tell me how and tell me when
Dream a dream and end another Life is there to interrupt Someone out there tell my mother Look at me I'm all grown up
Story ends in total damage It's an unforgiving world 17 how will I manage How can I I'm just a girl

So this is the tale my mother told me That tale that was much too dull to hold me And this is the surge and the rush she said would show Our story goes on
Oh, I was young I'd forgot how things outlive me. My goal was the kick that life would give me And now like a joke something moves to let me know Our story goes on
And all these things I feel and more My mother's mother felt and hers before A chain of life began upon the shore of some dark sea has reached to me And now I can see the chain extending My child is next in the line that has no ending And here am I feeling life that her child will feel when I'm long gone And thus it is our story goes on
And on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on And all these things I feel and more My mother's mother felt and hers before A chain of life began upon the shore of some primordial sea has stretched through time to reached to me And now I can see the chain extending My child is next in the line that has no ending
And her am I feeling life that her child will feel when I'm long gone Yes all that was is part of me as I am part of what's to be And thus it is our story goes on And on and on and on and on

By the end of the show, Queenie loses both of the men who pursue her, and contemplates how things came to end so badly.
View Lyrics
We're all so sure We're all so wise No limits No boundaries No compromise. Laughing at our neighbor Smiling through a hiss How did we come to this?
We're all amuse We're all inspired So cunning So clever And so admired Easy to be angry Easy to dismiss How did we come to this?
Maybe I've been living in a daydream Maybe I've been talking in my sleep If I've been awake Pardon my mistake But time is running low And talk is growing cheap.
We play our games We place our bets No witness No weakness And no regrets. Filling up with frenzy Killing with a kiss How did we all come to this? Time goes by Plans grow stale People die And parties fail How did we come to this?
ENSEMBLE She had grey eyes, Lips like coals aglow. And her face was a tinted mask of snow.
A fascinating woman As they go.

Grania (known in the show as “Grace”) vents to her lover Tiernan over her frustration that her father Dubhdara forbids her to sail on his ship.
View Lyrics
Woman I am born What does “woman” mean? Must my dreams face scorn Held back and unseen

If I long for fire Must it stay unreal? Can I not desire? Am I not to feel?

If I ache to taste Am I not to try? If my heart says sail Why must I deny? I have my dreams I have made plans

I see horizons wide as a man’s Must I be nothing till I’m some man’s wife?

Look at this face Does it deceive? Do I look made to milk and to weave? I will be damned to Hell if that is my life! (Interlude)

Tiernan, I’m almost your age, I’m your match in size, I’m your match with swords An equal in most eyes

But when you have a dream And you’re caught in it’s grip You can climb aboard a ship You can – You can for you’re a man

You can reach toward that place Where the earth meets the sky Fight a battle be brave, be true If you can do it, why not I?

I’m meant to fly Sail unrestrained Why is man free and woman chained? Is that my epitaph before I die?

I should be free Free to be Grace I want to feel the wind on my face! And when life beckons, I should go Face out the storm, not stay below Am I to be just woman? No! Not I!
