The Secret Garden movie - Quartet/There's A Man-Transition lyrics
rate me<br>
ARCHIBALD:<br>
Last night I dreamed I walked through the maze to Lily's garden,<br>
and saw Lily and Mary standing there. Mary standing right there<br>
in Lily's garden. I turned away...I couldn't watch...I was afraid.<br>
<br>
NEVILLE:<br>
Why won't he say what he wants? <br>
Why must he speak in dreams? <br>
Why can't he see what he wants? <br>
To disappear, it seems!<br>
He should send this haunted girl far away,<br>
Leave the house and lands to me!<br>
<br>
ARCHIBALD:<br>
I watched them walk around the garden,<br>
She stood tall, grown strong and bold.<br>
Then they turned and asked my pardon,<br>
I couldn't speak, my heart grown cold.<br>
<br>
NEVILLE:<br>
Why can't he see what he wants? <br>
He wants the past undone!<br>
Why can't he know what he wants?<br>
He's losing battles won<br>
To have ever loved her, <br>
Never known how complete a loss can be.<br>
<br>
If she could disappear, he'd start again.<br>
And live like other men, he could be happy then.<br>
If she'd disappear, he could be free,<br>
Cut off from pain and loss,<br>
A bit like me.<br>
<br>
ROSE:<br>
You can't marry this Archibald! He's a gloomy,<br>
miserable cripple who hides himself away in <br>
that horrible house! He can't believe you love <br>
him and neither can I!<br>
<br>
LILY:<br>
No one is asking for your approval, Rose!<br>
<br>
ROSE:<br>
Lily, if you don't care what happens to you, think <br>
about your children. Do you want your children to<br>
be crippled as well?<br>
<br>
LILY:<br>
I will marry him!<br>
<br>
NEVILLE: ROSE:<br>
I can arrange what he wants, Don't do this!<br>
He's left it all to me. Don't wed him!<br>
Now he can have what he wants, Don't bed him!<br>
Unfetted he will be, Don't do this, <br>
Set him free to wander Set him free <br>
Through the world <br>
Let him go<br>
His lonely ways!<br>
<br>
ARCHIBALD: LILY:<br>
Then I longed to join them Now that<br>
Know the peace they feel I love him<br>
Their journey done. I will live<br>
Then I woke once more For him<br>
Without them, Live just to love him<br>
Knew I must wander on and on<br>
ROSE<br>
I I won't forgive you!<br>
Go Won't see you live there!!<br>
Life to Lily, I swear <br>
Find! I'll never see you!!<br>
<br>
NEVILLE:<br>
Just to disappear<br>
Is to be free!<br>
<br>
LILY:<br>
Do what you will, then,<br>
I'll never leave him!<br>
<br>
NEVILLE:<br>
Cut off from <br>
Pain-cut off from<br>
Pain<br>
I'll help him disappear!<br>
He'll start again!<br>
<br>
ROSE<br>
Cut off from pain!<br>
Cut off from pain! <br>
Now you must leave him! LILY:<br>
Yes, you must leave him! How can I leave him! <br>
I'll never leave him, Nor e'er deceive him!<br>
Yes, you must leave him! Rose, <br>
Lily, promise! I promised! <br>
Yes, you must leave him, Never leave him,<br>
You must believe! <br>
You must believe!<br>
<br>
NEVILLE:<br>
Disappear!<br>
<br>
LILY: ROSE <br>
I will wed and bear him children. Lily, think about the children.<br>
He will love me, love the children. Lily, think about the children.<br>
<br>
There's A Man (Transition)<br>
There's a man who no one sees,<br>
There's a man who lives alone.<br>
There's a heart that beats in silence for <br>
The life he's never known.<br>
<br>
