Lestat The Musical movie - I'll Never Have That Chance lyrics
rate me<br>
I have spent so many years <br>
In fancy lace and beaded gowns, <br>
I have set my hair a hundred ways, <br>
My face I paint it up and powder it down. <br>
<br>
This body bares a telling tale, <br>
They pinch my cheek and wish me well. <br>
for all their patronizing smiles <br>
This frame remains a prison cell. <br>
They look at me and what they see <br>
Is one more painted china doll. <br>
A sweet and cuddled good do well, <br>
A painted fan, a sweet treat and the parasol. <br>
<br>
Inside of me there lives someone <br>
Who could have been somebody's wife, <br>
Who could have seen their children grow, <br>
Who could have had a normal life, <br>
Who could have easily loved a man <br>
And felt his kisses deep and moist. <br>
<br>
Instead i get this kiss of death <br>
And in this i have no choice, <br>
imagine walking down the aisle, <br>
I'll never have that chance. <br>
A wedding dress of virgin white <br>
The very best from France. <br>
A cottage in the country, <br>
The pleasures of romance, <br>
Sunlight laying on my skin. <br>
I'll never have that chance. <br>
So no, I'll never have that chance... <br>
<br>
They glide around society's swans, <br>
With slim long necks and perfect breasts, <br>
While i remain the frozen child, <br>
A baby bird without the wings to leave her nest. <br>
<br>
This body bares a telling tale, <br>
They pinch my cheek and wish me wellFfor all their patronizing smiles <br>
this frame remains a prison cell. <br>
The mirror with its cruel laugh <br>
Reflects this ageless face of mine <br>
In taunting ways as if to say <br>
'Childhood is not something you can leave behind.' <br>
<br>
Inside of me there lives someone <br>
Who never felt a mother's love, <br>
Who could have heard the bells on sunday, <br>
Kneeling in the church of God, <br>
Who would have loved a rainy day <br>
And never had to feel the fire. <br>
Instead I hunger for the vein <br>
That holds the life force I desire. <br>
<br>
Pleasures of fine wines and dining <br>
I'll never have that chance <br>
the taste of chocolate and champagne, <br>
The very best from France, <br>
The arching of a rainbow <br>
And the way the colors dance. <br>
The miracle of giving birth, <br>
I'll never have that chance. <br>
<br>
Imagine walking down the aisle, <br>
I'll never have that chance, <br>
A wedding dress of virgin white, <br>
The very best from France. <br>
A cottage in the country, <br>
The pleasures of romance. <br>
Sunlight laying on my skin, <br>
I'll never have that chance. <br>
I know <br>
I'll never have that chance... <br>
I'll never have that chance...<br>
<br>
