MOULIN ROUGE "The Show Must Go On"
Satine:
I'm dying
I was a fool to believe
a fool to believe
it all ends today
yes it all ends today
Zidler:
send Christian away
only you can save him
Satine:
he'll fight for me
Zidler:
yes, unless he believes you don't love him
Satine:
what?
Zidler
you're a great actress Satine
make him believe you don't love him
Satine:
no!
Zidler:
use your talent to save him
hurt him, hurt him to save him
there is no other way
the show must go on, Satine
we're creatures of the underworld
we can't afford to love
Satine:
Today's the day when dreaming ends
Zidler:
Another hero, another mindless crime
Behind the curtain, in the pantomime
On and on, does anybody know what we are living for?
Zidler & Chorus:
Whatever happens, we leave it all to chance
Another heartache, another failed romance
On and on, does anybody know what we are living for?
The show must go on
The show must go on
Outside the dawn is breaking on the stage
that holds our final destiny
The show must go on
The show must go on
Satine:
Inside my heart is breaking
My make-up may be flaking
But my smile still stays on
Zidler & Chorus:
The show must go on
The show must go on
Satine, Zidler & Chorus:
I'll top the bill, I'll own the kill
I have to find the will to carry on...
All:
...with the
On with the
On with the show!
Zidler:
On with the show!
On with the show!
The show must go on!
