Broadway production 2015 Doctor Zhivago the Musical - When the Music Played Lyrics
Lara: I was young, I was poor, life was harsh and unsure but a fatherless girl can't complain then my fate chased by chance with an innocent dance with a man who was older , and richer and bolder a man with a taste for champagne. And other girls like me, too blinded to see But when the music played, the world would fade away And I'd sail 'cross the floor, caring less wanting more. When the music played, somehow my soul obeyed! Heaven would be whispering my name When the music played. So I gave and he took With a word with a look I was captured inside of his game There I was, still a girl, in the devil's own world But a girl who was older, and wiser and colder A girl who felt hunger and shame! Yes, I served like a slave sins I'll take to my grave. But when the music played The world would fade away And I'd sail 'cross the floor Caring less, wanting more When the music played Somehow my soul obeyed Heaven only knows what I became When the music played And I hated him, yet I wanted him, and I met with him more than I should And it frightened me, how he'd hold me, like he owned me. I said "stay away!" But he wouldn't "Oh God! Stay away!" but I couldn't I had to end it, I had to leave. Can you forgive me? Put the pain aside , put the past away Look into my eyes and let the music play Yesterday's fade away To a world we restore, wanting less, caring more Let the music play For who we are today Let me hear you whispering my name When the music plays When the music plays When the music plays!
