[ZOE MURPHY]
Why should I play this game of pretend
Remembering through a secondhand sorrow?
Such a great son and wonderful friend
Oh, don't the tears just pour?
I could curl up and hide in my room
There in my bed still sobbing tomorrow
I could give in to all of the gloom
But tell me, tell me what for?
Why should I have a heavy heart?
Why should I start to break in pieces?
Why should I go and fall apart for you?
Why
Should I play the grieving girl and lie
Saying that I miss you and that my
World has gone dark without your light?
I will sing no requiem.. tonight
[LARRY MURPHY]
I gave you the world, you threw it away
Leaving these broken pieces behind you
Everything wasted, nothing to say
So I can sing no requiem
[CYNTHIA MURPHY]
I hear your voice and feel you near
Within these words I finally find you
And now that I know that you are still here
I will sing no requiem tonight
[ZOE (CYNTHIA) {LARRY}]
[{Why should I have a}]
[{Heavy heart?}]
Why should I say
[(I'll keep you with me?)]
Why should I go and
Fall apart for you?
Why / {(Ah})
Should I play the grieving
Girl and lie / {(Ah})
Saying that I miss you
And that
[{My world}]
[{Has gone dark}]
Without / (I can see)
Your light / (Your light)
I will sing no requiem..
Tonight
'Cause when the villains fall
The kingdoms never weep
No one lights
A candle to remember
No, no one mourns at all
When they lay them down
To sleep
So don't tell me that I / {(Ah})
Didn't have it right / {(Ah})
{(Ah})
Don't tell me that it / {(Ah})
Wasn't black and white / {(Ah})
{(Ah})
After all you put me through / {(Ah})
Don't say it wasn't true / {(Ah})
That you were not the monster..
That I knew
'Cause I
Cannot play the grieving girl and lie
Saying that I miss you
And that my world has gone dark...
{I will sing no requiem..}
(I will sing no requiem..)
I will sing no requiem..
Tonight
{(Oh~)} {(Oh~)}
Oh~ [{(Oh~)}]
