Miss Saigon movie - The Fall Of Saigon lyrics
rate me<br>
(KIM overwhelmed at the prospect of finally being reunited with CHRIS, <br>
recalls the horrifying moments when they were seperated during The Fall of Saigon)<br>
<br>
[AN OFFICER]<br>
Sorry, Sergeant, we must accelerate<br>
State department says we evacuate<br>
The word is, we must be out<br>
By dawn<br>
<br>
[CHRIS]<br>
I have to get my girl!<br>
<br>
[ANOTHER OFFICER]<br>
Sorry, Sergent, it's sraight from<br>
Washington<br>
No one leaves the grounds now, not<br>
Anyone<br>
A fast as we load the planes<br>
We're gone<br>
<br>
[CHRIS]<br>
(But my girl is in there!)<br>
<br>
(A huge CROWD OF VIETNAMESE is pushing at the Embassy gates.)<br>
<br>
[A MARINE CAPTAIN]<br>
(to the crowd)<br>
<br>
Okay! Keep quiet! Don't shout!<br>
The Ambassador won't leave till<br>
Everyone's out<br>
The choppers're on there way there's<br>
Room for you all<br>
<br>
[ANOTHER MARINE]<br>
They're climbing over the wall!<br>
(GET BACK!)<br>
<br>
[MORE MARINES]<br>
Get Back! Tell you, don't shout!<br>
The Ambassador won't leave till<br>
Everyone's out<br>
<br>
[A MARINE]<br>
(entering)<br>
<br>
Th' Ambassador just sent an order to<br>
Freeze<br>
<br>
[THE MARINE CAPTAIN]<br>
That's it! No more Vietnamese!<br>
Get in!<br>
<br>
[CHRIS]<br>
But my girl's out there!<br>
<br>
(In the street outside the Embasst, KIM can't get through the grounds)<br>
<br>
[KIM]<br>
I'm the wife of a soldier<br>
Oh please let me through<br>
Help me, who must I pay?<br>
Tell me what I must do<br>
<br>
[CHRIS]<br>
(To an OFFICER)<br>
<br>
Let me out, I got to<br>
Go back for my bride<br>
<br>
[KIM]<br>
Listen someone! My husband<br>
Is waiting inside<br>
<br>
<br>
[CHRIS]<br>
(telephoning, inside the Embassy yard)<br>
<br>
Please Kim, hear the phone!<br>
I can't get there<br>
Please be home<br>
<br>
[KIM]<br>
(in the street)<br>
<br>
Please Chris, no one sees!<br>
I am lost here<br>
Find me please!<br>
<br>
[BOTH]<br>
Please, get me through - I don't care<br>
How<br>
Don't take my love away, Not now!<br>
<br>
[KIM]<br>
Oh Chris,<br>
<br>
[CHRIS]<br>
Oh Kim,<br>
<br>
[KIM]<br>
I can't get free<br>
<br>
[CHRIS]<br>
Please get free<br>
<br>
[KIM] [CHRIS]<br>
Still I'm with you I am with you<br>
Wait for Wait for me<br>
<br>
[THE MARINE CAPTAIN]<br>
(to CHRIS)<br>
<br>
Sorry Sergent, inside the Embassy!<br>
We are pulling out now and there will <br>
Be<br>
No more reprives<br>
<br>
[CHRIS]<br>
I got till the old man leaves<br>
<br>
(CHRIS is forced inside the Ebassy, whose doors are then barricaded<br>
The VIETNAMESE are now yelling through the Ebassy gates)<br>
<br>
[ONE VIETNAMESE]<br>
Take me with you!<br>
Take my children<br>
<br>
[ANOTHER]<br>
I have a letter from...!<br>
<br>
[ANOTHER]<br>
I helped the C.I.A.!<br>
<br>
[CROWD]<br>
They'll kill who they find here!<br>
Don't leave us behind here!<br>
<br>
[A VIETNAMESE]<br>
I've a wife who left already<br>
<br>
[ANOTHER]<br>
I've an aunt in New York!<br>
<br>
[ANOTHER]<br>
I have gold, I can pay!<br>
<br>
[CROWD]<br>
There is no one to find here!<br>
They have left us behind here!<br>
<br>
(KIM has pushed her way through the gate)<br>
<br>
[KIM]<br>
I must get in there - Listen, anyone!<br>
Please tell my husband...look, I have <br>
his gun!<br>
<br>
[A VIETNAMESE]<br>
Out of my way, if that's all you've<br>
got<br>
<br>
[CROWD]<br>
If I am here when they come, I'll be shot!<br>
<br>
(Inside the compound: MARINES guard the roof<br>
helipad)<br>
<br>
[CHRIS]<br>
Let me go John,<br>
I can't leave her<br>
Why in the world should I be saved<br>
Instead of her?<br>
<br>
[CROWD]<br>
They'll kill who they find here<br>
Don't leave us behind here!<br>
<br>
[JOHN]<br>
It's not you<br>
It's war that's cruel<br>
And if some dreams get smashed<br>
Perhaps it's best they were<br>
<br>
[CROWD] and [KIM]<br>
There is no one to find here!<br>
They have left us behind here!<br>
<br>
[JOHN]<br>
Wake up, my friend<br>
Your mercy trip has failed<br>
There's nothing you can do,<br>
That ship has sailed<br>
She's not the only one we'll have <br>
Betrayed<br>
<br>
[CROWD]<br>
Get to the roof, or els we are betrayed!<br>
<br>
(The CROWD tries to vatter down the fences)<br>
<br>
[KIM]<br>
(in the yard)<br>
<br>
Oh Chris-<br>
I still believe!<br>
The heart of you<br>
Is here with me<br>
My heart, against all odds,<br>
Holds Still<br>
<br>
(On the Embassy roof, the last helicopter lands, <br>
CHRIS runs up and down the wall, shouting for KIM.<br>
Finally he is forced to board the helicopter<br>
- which takes off. The nightmare passes - KIM is in her little room with TAM)<br>
<br>
