Please Lyrics by Lea Salonga

Please

Kim: Lea Salonga
John: Peter Polycarpou


JOHN:
I'm not here as a friend
I have a job to do
it's strange to find my work
should lead me here to you
Chris knows all about you
I have shown him all this
but I think that it's time
you know all about Chris

KIM
please, don't you see that's all I live for?
I have him and nothing more
at night, everything that's not him
disappears behind my door

JOHN
please, he went crazy when he lost you
spoke to no one for a year
then he finally said "I'm home now,
my life has to go on here"

Kim, let me finish talking, please
that was three whole years ago

KIM
yes, yes I know
I know how pain can grow
when the rock you hold onto
is a love miles away, listen:

please, I already know the story
take us to the USA

JOHN
when we finish here, you'll see him
Chris arrived with me today!

KIM
oh Tam! He's here!
he is here, he's so near
we might breathe the same air tonight!
your father's here

KIM JOHN
Oh Tam its true! I can't tell her like this
My dream was right! I should not be the one
You'll see him soon Chris must come see his son

please, they don't say
don't you see we've been in the files
watched over? there's a woman in love
as we crossed here
the wildest sea? what sustained her for miles
even god wants us together Chris still knows nothing of
can I end this journey can I end this journey
please? please?
