Gerard Presgurvic Rómeó és Júlia (Romeo & Juliet)

1., VeronaThe Prince If you think you've seen it all Then you better think again Don't care how many books you've read Or how many lands you've seen You're still not prepared for this Don't be misled by pretty girls Or flower gardens everywhere You'll soon see what I mean

The family called Capulet Will not forgive and can't forget And the family called Montague Is as unforgiving too

This is Verona You're in Verona Where hatred is a way of life And you can cut it with a knife The hate keeps flowing in their veins It is more powerful than chains And they are scared to turn their backs It isn't prudent to relax

Not in Verona Charming Verona The population is unique Nobody turns the other cheek When will they get it in their heads? That dreams will never leave their beds Until there is some compromise And peace illuminates the skies Of Verona

On the surface all is well Heaven on earth it would appear A second look and you'll see hell It's no picnic to live here Maybe the wound's too deep and raw Archaic wounds take long to heal And Montagues and Capulets Seem to thrive on their ordeal

What tragic price must we pay For bad blood to be washed away? It's all too sad to contemplate And it's all because of hate

In my Verona Perfect Verona Two families with an ancient grudge That all their praying cannot budge An endless battle of two foes And neither one can find repose As families swim against the tide You'll meet some people who reside

In Verona In Verona This one is called Benvolio And that's his friend Mercutio And here comes Tybalt like a god It's been like this since he was born But in this town I am the law It's tough 'cause everyone's at war

Mercutio He's mad, we are the law here

Page 2: Gerard Presgurvic  · Web view8., She Can´t See Me Tybalt She can't see me She can't hear me One day, she'll know I exist I will charm her 'till she loves me Not a single joy will

Benvolio We are too wild to be controlled

Tybalt I am too brave, I am too bold

Mercutio Do you bite your thumb, Tybalt?

Tybalt Does it look like a thumb, Mercutio?

Mercutio I'll cut it off, you bastard

Chorus We're in Verona Come to Verona The population is unique Nobody turns the other cheek The hate keeps flowing in our veins Hate is more powerful than chains No wonder danger's in the air The enemy is everywhere!

Prince Stop this endless brawling! You fight like mad dogs. You, Capulet! You, Montague! Put down your weapons. I said, put down your weapons! This feud of yours is a plague upon us all. The next one of you, young or old, to break the peace of this city will pay for it with his life. The choice is yours: peace or death.

2., Born to HateLady Capulet We're born to hate Soon as we leave Our mother's womb Hate's in the air And to survive We breathe its fumes We love to hate Hatred's the third word that we learn Mama, Papa And after that it's hatred's turn We're born to hate It's like a serpent in the soul We're so consumed It seems the serpent's in control We love to hate

Lady Montague We are the same I too can see Things I despise Year after year Poisonous hate Burns from your eyes There's so much hate Day after day the children grieve Just look at them And see the legacy we leave In every street A broken heart, a blood-stained sword We fight to win But it's a fight without reward

Lady Capulet You pay the price Look at your face Hate's in each pore of your wretched skin Another day, another death You'll pass it on to your next of kin

Lady Montague It makes us old before our time

Page 3: Gerard Presgurvic  · Web view8., She Can´t See Me Tybalt She can't see me She can't hear me One day, she'll know I exist I will charm her 'till she loves me Not a single joy will

Hate is a whore, a plague, a curse I doubt if we will live to see Hate disappear from the universe

Both It makes us old before our time Hate is a whore, a plague, a curse I doubt if we will live to see Hate disappear from the universe

Chorus We're born to hate It's like a serpent in the soul We're so consumed It seems the serpent's in control

Lady Montague Benvolio, have you seen Romeo?

Mercutio My guess is he's prancing along the river bank

Lady Montague What are you saying?

Mercutio Handing out daffodils to complete strangers in the street

Lady Montague Why?

Mercutio Because he's gone mad

Benvolio If love is madness

Mercutio Definitely

Lady Montague Love? Why, who is he in love with?

Mercutio Rosaline.

Benvolio The name's irrelevant. It's love he's in love with.

Lady Montague Well, thank God he missed the fight here. Here he comes.

Benvolio You better go, he wouldn't want you to see him like this.

Lady Montague Look after him, Benvolio.

Benvolio I always do. Leave him to me.

3., All days are the same without Love Romeo I feel I'm killing time, my life is slipping by There has to be someone who feels the same as I I long to find a love that's deep and strong and true There has to be someone who wants the same things too As soon as I find her My world will start turning But real love is elusive That's something I'm learning

Juliette

Page 4: Gerard Presgurvic  · Web view8., She Can´t See Me Tybalt She can't see me She can't hear me One day, she'll know I exist I will charm her 'till she loves me Not a single joy will

They say I'm very young, I'm going through a phase And I must learn to curb my adolescent ways There must be more to life than what my eyes have seen But every yesterday becomes a might-have-been I am longing For someone to hold me And tell me while we're dancing What no one has told me

Romeo All days are the same without love Sundays, Tuesdays, Thursdays

Juliette Strange how nothing ever changes Summers, springs and winters drift by

Romeo & Juliette All days are the same without love When no one's beside you Who cares if the moon seems closer Or the stars seem brighter All days are the same without love But with love the days grow Each one's an adventure Anything can happen No heart ever ages Each day's been created For you

All days are the same without love But with love the days grow Each one's an adventure Anything can happen No heart ever ages Each day's been created For you

All days are the same without love

Benvolio Ah, the elusive Romeo. Hey mate, you missed the action.

Romeo Ah, don't tell me that.

Benvolio I played Tybalt, Mercutio followed like a demon.

Romeo Is he alright?

Benvolio Yeah, of course, he can look after himself. Then the prince decided to make a speech. Hey, he singled out your father. 'The next person caught fighting in Verona will die for it.'

Romeo Well, at least hate is simple. Not like love. I don't know which is worse.

Benvolio Love, by the looks of it.

Romeo I'm over it.

Benvolio Has the boy come back to us then?

Romeo 'The boy' didn't ever leave!

Benvolio Excellent. The drinks are on you.

4., The Request of Marriage Paris I will make the perfect groom I love your child and I am rich So rich, give her to me What must I do? I could help you I'll pay off your debts I'll be like a son My heart will not rest 'Til we are one I beg of you, she is my life Please allow your Juliet to be my wife

Count Capulet My dear friend, control your lust Take a deep breath, you're overwrought In short, when one's aroused I am afraid mistakes are made She's just a child, fourteen tender years Motherhood must wait, she's too young for tears To take a heart before its time Would be a rash, irresponsible crime Not Juliet, not quite yet Take it slow, enjoy the dance One shouldn't rush a great romance

Come to the ball tonight and I'll introduce you to her.

Paris Thank you, sir. Thank you.

Capulet Well, we'll see if she takes to you. Tread gently, Paris.

Paris I will, sir.

Capulet Good. She's not ready for the world yet.

Nurse Juliet, stand up straight, your mother wants a word with you.

Juliet What now?

Lady Capulet Juliet. Oh, darling, look at you! You're growing up so quickly. You're almost a woman.

Juliet A woman? I'm not even fifteen.

Lady Capulet Ah, there are ladies all over Verona much younger than you - married, already mothers. I was married and pregnant at your age.

Juliet Well, I haven't even thought about any of that.

Lady Capulet Well, perhaps you should. The point is, you're blossoming. Oh. There's a young man called Paris coming to the ball tonight.

Juliet Paris? What sort of name is Paris? I bet you he's vile.

Lady Capulet Juliet!

Juliet Well?

Nurse No, he's virile! If I were two or three years younger, I'd be...

Page 6: Gerard Presgurvic  · Web view8., She Can´t See Me Tybalt She can't see me She can't hear me One day, she'll know I exist I will charm her 'till she loves me Not a single joy will

Lady Capulet Talk to him this evening. I promise you, there isn't a sweeter man in Verona.

Juliet He's a bore, isn't he?

Nurse He's good-hearted, Juliet, and he's well-respected.

Lady Capulet And very rich.

Nurse Just give the boy a chance.

5., You Must MarryLady Capulet For all its faults Whatever cynics say Marriage, my dear Invigorates each day How lucky you are For somebody so young

Juliet But I'm not in love

Lady Capulet For once, hold your tongue He's handsome and rich He's sent from above How stupid of Paris To have picked you to love

Lady Capulet and Nurse Juliet and Paris Your names seem to go so well Time to think of marriage

Nurse Listen to your mother

Lady Capulet My daughter, the bride! Last night I just cried and cried

Juliet Wasted tears, mother I'm not a bride yet!

I'm thrilled he asked But I prefer to wait I doubt he's the type That I'd choose for a mate

Lady Capulet That's just where you're wrong It's all a game of chance The world's full of hags Who waited for romance

Juliet I'm not in love I cannot be his wife

Nurse Your daughter is spoiled She has been all her life A room full of toys And still she wanted more

Lady Capulet

Page 7: Gerard Presgurvic  · Web view8., She Can´t See Me Tybalt She can't see me She can't hear me One day, she'll know I exist I will charm her 'till she loves me Not a single joy will

They're still in her room All over the floor Dream the same dreams To fall head over heels But fate makes sure that everyone Adjusts their ideals You'll grow to love him As I did your father On the day we met He was in a state Well, he could hardly stand up straight He was drunk and overweight

Juliet You're starting to sound Like an old mother hen

Lady Capulet You will have to learn to Change your thinking about men Why, even the Bible Gets revised now and again

Romeo I had you!

Benvolio Yeah, right! You're far too busy dreaming.

Romeo What's wrong with that?

Mercutio Well, dreams aren't real. But this is! You need to watch dreams. They get into your head and rule your life. What you need is some real action. How about this? The Capulets are having a huge party!

Romeo Oh, no...

Benvolio I've heard he's spent a fortune

Mercutio Hundreds of people

Benvolio We couldn't let a party like that pass us by

Mercutio No, we couldn't

Benvolio So we've invited ourselves

Mercutio And you

Romeo That's a really bad idea, guys

Mercutio C'mon, don't be such a wimp

Benvolio Anyway, they won't recognize us. It's a masked ball.

Romeo Is it?

Mercutio Ay, it is. There'll be birds...

Benvolio And booze

Mercutio And birds...

Page 8: Gerard Presgurvic  · Web view8., She Can´t See Me Tybalt She can't see me She can't hear me One day, she'll know I exist I will charm her 'till she loves me Not a single joy will

Benvolio And dancing

Romeo I'm too out of love to dance

Mercutio Oh, lucky, 'cause you've got two left feet

Romeo This is crazy

Mercutio Why shouldn't we crash it? We have as much right to have fun as those Capulets do. We'll be in and out before those dozy bastards realize they've been had!

6., Kings of the WorldRomeo Kings of the world running our lives Powerful husbands with ambitious wives Ever-so-smug 'cause they make all the rules They are not kings, just a bunch of old fools

Benvolio Kings of the world planning ahead They haven't noticed they're already dead They eat the fat and they toss us the bones Transparent kings sitting on paper thrones

Refrain We know how to live, we squeeze the juice From every moment, we make love Day after day, night after night We sing, we dance, it makes no sense In being careful Not when time flies like an arrow We take every risk that's out there We're prepared to take that chance We are the....

Mercutio Kings of the world, free as the wind Looking for sins that we haven't yet sinned They think they're smart, but they're really quite dumb You miss the tune when you're banging your drum

Romeo and Benvolio Kings of the world, they're just a joke They are not kings, they're just misguided folk Boring as hell and as dull as can be One thing's for sure: they would love to be me

Refrain to fadeout

Nurse Juliet, hurry. What are you waiting for?

Juliet I've decided I'm not going to get married.

Nurse Oh, stop behaving like a brat.

Juliet Don't talk to me like that! You know what I mean, I know you do. Who is this Paris, and why should I automatically love him?

Nurse What makes you think that getting married has anything to do with love, you silly girl?

Juliet I thought I was a woman now, you old battle-axe.

Page 9: Gerard Presgurvic  · Web view8., She Can´t See Me Tybalt She can't see me She can't hear me One day, she'll know I exist I will charm her 'till she loves me Not a single joy will

Nurse Never call me old again.

Juliet You've been in love, you know what it's like.

Nurse Darling, having a husband's a bit like having a piece of old furniture. You don't have to love it, you just give it a quick polish now and again.

Juliet You're horrible! He's a stranger.

Nurse But we'll all be there, your father, and Tybalt. And me. And you look so beautiful.

Juliet Do I?

Nurse Was that a smile?

Juliet I'll never smile again.

Nurse Is that so? There, now that's better.

Juliet Don't leave me alone with him.

Nurse C'mon, let's go and show them what you're made of.

7., Born to LoveRomeo I know there is a God And He has heard my prayer That face, look at that face Look at those eyes What star did you fall from?

Juliet I know why I'm alive I see the reason why That smile, heart-stopping smile Those breath-taking lips I will not forget this moment

Romeo You and I were born to love Finally my life has now begun

Juliet You and I were born to love Finally my heart you have won

Romeo Nothing in this world will stand in our way

Juliet You don't have to speak, I hear what you say

Both You and I were born to love Finally my life has now begun Our love will have legacy Longer than eternity

You and I were born to love Finally my life has now begun Our love will have legacy Longer than eternity

Capulet Tybalt! What is my daughter doing with that waiter?

Tybalt That's no waiter. I'd know the stench of a Montague anywhere.

Capulet Get out of my house!

Mercutio Romeo!

Romeo Mercutio. Wait! Mercutio, wait. Mercutio!

A Capulet I can't find them. They'll hide in their own part of town.

Tybalt Uncle, Montagues in your house!

Capulet Yes. And I'll see them burn in hell if one of them so much as looks at Juliet again.

Tybalt I'd do anything for Juliet. I love her.

Capulet Of course you do. We all do. What was she thinking? It's time to get her married to Paris, before something goes wrong.

Tybalt Yes.

8., She Can´t See MeTybalt She can't see me She can't hear me One day, she'll know I exist I will charm her 'till she loves me Not a single joy will be missed

In her eyes, I'm just a cousin Soon my feelings will become clear If she knew how much I love her She would stop and re-think her life I'm the one who she should marry She can't be another man's wife One day I'll be brave and tell her I'll destroy whoever comes near

Juliet I've fallen in love ... but it's with a Montague. Love, from hate. Is it possible?

Romeo Yes, because a Montague has fallen in love with a Capulet.

Juliet Your name is my enemy. Get rid of it.

Romeo It's gone! I'm no longer a Montague. Do you love me?

Juliet Yes. And I'm not a Capulet if you swear you love me back.

Romeo I swear to God! I love you.

Juliet Our families ... we're insane! (?)

Page 11: Gerard Presgurvic  · Web view8., She Can´t See Me Tybalt She can't see me She can't hear me One day, she'll know I exist I will charm her 'till she loves me Not a single joy will

Romeo It's only us, Juliet. Where are our parents now?

Juliet My head's rushing.

9., Two Different Worlds Juliet Who is the god above me Who summoned that you should love me? Why has he blessed us in this way? I know I'll thank him every day My heart was wise to choose you But they'll want me to refuse you Now that we know where we belong They're bound to say it's wrong

Just take a look around us A sea of fools surround us But they will see before we're done Two different worlds become one

Romeo What star or god above me Decided that you should love me? Forbidden love comes at a price But it is worth the sacrifice They don't know what they're saying This love of ours is staying I'm not prepared to say goodbye Until the day I die

Both Two different worlds they live in Why don't they all just give in? The winds of war keep blowing The seeds of hate keep growing

All I want to do Is live and die with you

My heart was wise to choose you There's no way I can refuse you And they will see before we're done Two different worlds come one

My heart was wise to choose you I'd rather die than ever lose you We'll make them see before we're done Two different worlds come one

Nurse Juliet!

Juliet My nurse! She's so nosy, you have to go.

Romeo Wait! When will I see you next?

Juliet Tomorrow. Tell me tomorrow if you still love me. Tell me, tell me you'll marry me! Find a place, get a priest, and send me a message.

Romeo I'll do it, Juliet! We'll get married.

Juliet You're a Montague. Never lie to me.

Nurse Juliet!

Page 12: Gerard Presgurvic  · Web view8., She Can´t See Me Tybalt She can't see me She can't hear me One day, she'll know I exist I will charm her 'till she loves me Not a single joy will

Romeo I love you, Juliet.

Juliet And I love you.

Romeo Till tomorrow then.

Juliet Tomorrow.

The next morning

Romeo Father, I have sinned.

Friar The Lord is forgiving. How have you sinned, my son?

Romeo I have had unclean thoughts.

Friar Have you acted upon these thoughts?

Romeo I've asked the girl to marry me.

Friar That's wonderful, my son! You needn't feel guilty about such thoughts. They're the natural urgings of youth, and when contained within the blessed bond of matrimony, will lead to the fulfillment of married life.

Romeo I don't think so, Father.

Friar Why should that be, my son?

Romeo You don't know who the girl is.

Friar Is there something the matter with her?

Romeo No! She's perfect.

Friar Then I'm sure your union will be blessed.

Romeo Her name is Juliet.

Friar A pretty name.

Romeo Juliet...Capulet

Friar Have you lost your head?! They'll murder you, Romeo. You're a Montague.

Romeo Because I'm a Montague, I can't love her?

10., All For LoveFriar Love makes fools out of wise men

Romeo But without love, what are we?

Page 13: Gerard Presgurvic  · Web view8., She Can´t See Me Tybalt She can't see me She can't hear me One day, she'll know I exist I will charm her 'till she loves me Not a single joy will

Friar My love is for God

Romeo I'm in love with an angel

Friar Love can be an illusion

Romeo This love is no illusion

Friar Can you trust your young heart?

Romeo Until death do us part

Marry me, I beg you I want to lay down beside her Friar, please I promise I'll pray every single day If you'll marry me

Friar Are you sure? Are you certain?

Romeo As the dawn, as the sunset

Friar Marriage may be the way Could it end all their hatred? Could it be...?

Romeo Living without her would be too much to bear What good's a morning without Juliet there?

Friar A Montague, a Capulet, living as man and wife I will be either be blessed or I'll be damned for life

Romeo Your God will forgive He knows that our love is true

Friar I was thinking of my soul for a moment or two

Romeo You have the power to make sure all fighting ends Imagine Capulets being Montagues' friends Friar, please

Both All for love we are living Every day we are giving, all for love

Friar I will marry you

Both What things we do, all for love

Romeo You've got to help me, Father. There's no one else.

Friar Yes. I see I must. Who knows, perhaps some good will come out of this madness. Your families have hated each other for too long. Bring Juliet here tonight. I will marry you here in the chapel.

Mercutio Well, well, what have we here? Mutton dressed as...

Benvolio ...mutton!

Nurse I'm looking for Romeo Montague.

Mercutio Hey Benvolio! We've got an old bag here, looking for Romeo.

Benvolio The question is, why?

Mercutio Even he's not that desperate.

Nurse Wash your mouth out with ... I have a message for him.

Mercutio Let's hear it then.

Nurse You're boys, you wouldn't understand it.

Mercutio Let me guess. Some infatuous girl's fallen in love with him, and she thinks she's more important than the rest of them.

Nurse You wouldn't know love if it pricked you in the ...

Mercutio She's old, and she's wise. Bet she could teach us a thing or two about love, eh?

11., Ugly or Beautiful Nurse Ha, ha, ha! I hear you laugh! Ha, ha, ha! Such a childish laugh You don't understand what it means to love You should not make fun of the heart

Ha, ha, ha! You are so cocksure I'm met imbeciles who are more mature You live half a life, you walk in the shade If the game of love isn't ever played You should heed my words

Mercutio Ha, ha, ha! Well, that is rich What can we hope to learn from this worn-out witch? Handsome Romeo is just having fun They'll be this one, and then another one Love is for the birds

All Ugly or beautiful Life is all twists and turns No map to show us where to go Where will life lead us Who's to know?

Ugly or beautiful We're all afraid of love We guard against it with our lives But we thank God we're here to rise

Nurse Ha, ha, ha! What can I do? 'Ha ha ha' is all I get from you You are all so vain Love is just a joke One day all your dreams will go up in smoke Laughter turns to screams

Benvolio Ha ha ha! Love is just a phase With the young it can last for days Lovers' tears aren't real, and their pain's not deep

It's a time to laugh, not a time to weep They dream harmless dreams

All Ugly or beautiful Life is all twists and turns No map to show us where to go Where will life lead us Who's to know?

Ugly or beautiful We're all afraid of love We guard against it with our lives But we thank God we're here to rise

Benvolio Ugly or beautiful We're all afraid, afraid of love

Mercutio Love is only for the birds

All Ugly or beautiful Life is all twists and turns No map to show us where to go Where will life lead us Who's to know?

Ugly or beautiful We're all afraid of love We guard against it with our lives But we thank God we're here to rise

Nurse I risked my life coming here for you today. This is from Juliet. ... Go home, you children.

Romeo '......Romeo. Tell my nurse what I should do.' Tell her to meet me at Friar Lawrence's at sunset.

Nurse The friar's, why?

Romeo Just tell her. Oh...and tell her that I love her.

12., And Now She is in Love Nurse I have cared for her Each day of her young life The baby in my arms Is soon to be a wife She isn't of my flesh She doesn't share my name Her humour and her looks Aren't something I can claim My Juliet is grown up

And now she is in love And everything has changed Her feelings and her hair Have all be re-arranged And while her heart bursts Mine's starting to break I am only her nurse So why do I find this so hard to take? She's eager to fly But oh, how fragile her wings But then she's in love

Wide-eyed Romeo And love-struck Juliet

It seems their love was doomed Before they even met Their worlds are worlds apart Too much of a divide Her heart is bound to break If she becomes his bride Juliet, I'm frightened

But she is so in love And every day's a dance And good old common sense Doesn't stand a chance I've done all I can What more can I do? When I was in love like her I was foolish too... So eager to fly Oh how fragile my wings But then, I was in love

The air I was breathing then Was like vintage wine And the darkest of nights Still managed to shine The love disappeared The memory stayed There's still a glimmer alive in me That will never fade

I know how she feels She's eager to fly But then she's in love

Now she is in love

13., These Are My RiversRomeo Your eyes, these are my rivers One glance can start a journey That takes me to wondrous places Your eyes, these are my rivers

Juliet Your arms, these are my mountains Hold me, and stars seem closer No one can ever reach us Your arms, these are my mountains

Romeo & Juliet No need to ever wonder We have the world before us Don't move, let's always stay here My heart, has found its way here

Juliet Your smile, your voice, your laughter New worlds that need exploring

Romeo And yet there's no need to leave here

All Your eyes, these are my rivers One glance can start a journey That takes me to wondrous places Your eyes, these are my rivers

Your arms, these are my mountains

14., Act twoA Montague Have you heard the big news?

Benvolio What?

A Montague It's Romeo

Mercutio What about Romeo?

A Montague He's in love.

Mercutio You call that big news? Hey, he's always in love. The silly cows all over this town...

A Montague So you already know that the latest 'silly cow' is a Capulet?

Benvolio What?

A Montague He's dipping his wick in the old man's daughter, no less!

Benvolio Shut up! Juliet, you say?

A Montague I told you, big news. Lady Montague's in a right state, she called him a traitor.

Benvolio Now, hold on everyone! Let's hear his side.

15., Word is on the Street Mercutio Word is on the street That you've gone raving mad And you'll lose every friend That you have ever had

Benvolio Word is on the Street That your parents are ashamed The town is filled with men Whose passions are enflamed

Both The people you love you've betrayed You laugh and spit in our face What a mistake your heart has made There will be no hiding place

You deceived us

Romeo To myself I have been true

Both You have failed us

Romeo I have never lied to you

Both You can't do this

Romeo I don't care what people say

Both This is madness

Romeo I will not turn her away

Both Do your duty

Romeo She's all I'm living for

Both Where's your honour?

Romeo I can't listen anymore

Both You betrayed us

Romeo Believe that if you must

Both You ignored us

Romeo You both leave me in disgust

Mercutio Word is on the street You can't hope to survive You haven't got a chance If you are caught alive

Benvolio Word is on the street That you will leave for good Nobody wants to see you

Tybalt Have you heard what they're saying on the street? About your daughter and that in-bred ...

Lady Capulet It's gossip.

Tybalt She's a traitor. She's been sleeping with a Montague!

Lady Capulet Watch your mouth, Tybalt! She's only a girl. She hasn't been sleeping with anyone. She'll be married to Paris in a couple of days.

Tybalt And what of honour? The honour of our family!

Lady Capulet What honour is there in killing a boy just because your grandfathers hated each other? Calm down!

Tybalt Your daughter is being stuffed by a Montague!

Lady Capulet I won't listen to another word. Go away for a few days, Tybalt. Leave this to my husband and me.

16., It´s TodayTybalt I'll stop his plan His evil plan A Montague will never take My love from me

I'm jealous, yes At his success But only I know How the story's end will be

I can't conceal The way I feel It time to do what I must do

She doesn't know I love her so A cousin isn't meant To carry on this way

I won't allow the boy To ever touch her skin I'm ready for the fight That I alone can win

It's today It's today My life starts from today

The day when he takes his last breath The day when he shakes hands with death My sword will pierce His cowardly heart I'll bury him deep From tomorrow me and Juliet will not be apart

I long to see Her look at me The way she looks at him But that will happen soon

We'll talk and we will touch We will laugh and drink too much My dream will come true Before the mid-night moon

It's today It's today My life starts from today

Soon as his body's laid to rest My love for her will be expressed I'll say the things that I never dare It's my turn to enjoy All of the things that she and Romeo share (It's today) I'll dance upon his grave (It's today) A lighting thrust, it will be over I'll restore my family's honour

I'll make him pay for her weak ways I'm coming for you You've no place to hide Romeo, it's your last day Tonight as we kiss You will be heading for hell

Mercutio Well, look who's here! The princess of dueling.

Tybalt I'm not after you, Mercutio. It's your lover I want.

Mercutio Ooh, my lover! You mean your mother? Oh, I left her down by the canal...

Tybalt I want Romeo!

Mercutio Well, Romeo's my blood brother. So the man you're really looking for is me!

Tybalt Where is Romeo Montague?

Romeo I'm here, Tybalt.

Tybalt Be a man, will you, and come here

Romeo Tybalt, I don't want to fight you.

Tybalt Mercutio, You're just a buffoon Your stupid mouth Will be silenced soon You're just a failed poet An embarrassing moron I'm going to do what I've been dying to do And now it will end Your sad journey through life You won't feel a thing I'm good with a knife Mercutio You're going to die

Romeo This must stop You're both mad Is life nothing to you? If we all kill each other What good will it do? This must end

Chorus Live Let's learn to live Forget, forgive And live as one

Mercutio He's too bad to live He's riddled with hate Too bad for us to tolerate A coward and an evil force A murderer without remorse

Tybalt Your friends are here so your tongue is loose I'm sure you'll find some lame excuse But there's no way out, I'm not letting you go Get ready to receive your fatal blow Live...Live while you can Die, die like a man

Mercutio Romeo

Romeo Mercutio, come. It's just a scratch.

Mercutio No! What did you get between us for? He was mine!

Romeo I was trying to stop ...

Mercutio What? All this? Well, you can't! Nobody can. You're cursed.

Romeo To hell with you! You don't know me at all!

Mercutio Go to Juliet now. Perhaps she's worth all of this.

18., Dying in the DustMercutio I curse the day I met A wretched Montague And all those Capulets Are just as wretched too

You're all heading for hell There's no hope anymore I would say that God has got some things to answer for

Romeo I'll keep you alive I'll speak of you Forever I'll keep you alive You'll live in me now

No!

Tybalt!

I'll keep you alive You'll live in me now...

Lady Capulet Montague has murdered my nephew! Prince! Prince! What about your law? Is the peace of Verona broken enough for you? Romeo murdered Tybalt. Romeo must pay the price!

Lady Montague And Tybalt murdered Mercutio!

Lady Capulet Tybalt paid the price!

Lady Montague Show some compassion!

19., Revenge Lord Capulet It's only fair He must pay the ultimate price Your son must die There's no need for legal advice

Lady Montague It isn't fair He just made sure justice was done Mercutio's death Had to be avenged by my son

The Prince What's done is done This war of yours cannot be won When will the past Be forgotten?

Romeo I don't want blood on my hands I turn from volience when I can My dearest friend died my arms And Tybalt was an evil man He stood there laughing Bragging, and laughing

You two have no right to judge You killed him as much as I We're your children, take some blame

You could be the reason why Into this world you brought us To live the way you taught us

Capulets It's only fair He must pay the ultimate price

Romeo I don't want blood on my hands

Montagues Mercutio's death

Romeo He's dead in my arms

Montagues Had to be avenged by my son

Romeo Dead in my arms

The Prince What's done is done This war of yours cannot be won When will the past -

Chorus The past is not forgotten

The Prince It's over

Romeo. You know the law. I could have your life. But there's been enough killing. Instead, I banish you from the city. When the sun rises tomorrow morning, if you are still in Verona, it will be the last thing you see. It is my decision! Now clean up your dead. You savages!

20., Verona (Reprise)The Prince It is just another death Well, as they say what else is new No lessons will be learned from this I'm a fool to think they will

Only so much you can learn How many mountains can you climb? I can see this going on Till there's no one left to kill

Only so much You can take The strongest mountains often shake I might as well be on my way Why does anybody stay... In sad Verona Hopeless Verona

Where all the dreams are quickly gone Not worth the sky they're written on I get the feeling if I die They'd shrug and take it in their stride ________________ any more And not the impotence of law Lawless Verona Loveless Verona

I wish I knew how to proceed... A miracle is what we need Something beyond the reach of man Some merciful almighty plan This hatred must come to an end Or there'll be no lives left to mend In Verona

Lady Capulet Juliet!

Lady Montague Romeo!

Juliet What is it?

Romeo Mother, I've lost everything

Lady Capulet Your cousin Tybalt. He's dead. He's been killed, it's all over!

Romeo How can she forgive me?

Juliet Tybalt? Killed?

Lady Montague How can you love a Capulet?

Lady Capulet Murdered! By Romeo!

Juliet That's not true! Get out!

Romeo Is it so bad to love?

Lord Montague No, son!

Lady Capulet Tybalt killed his friend Mercutio and then Romeo murdered Tybalt.

Lady Montague Parents love too, Romeo.

Lady Capulet He's been sent away, he is leaving Verona.

Juliet No, no!

Lord Montague Go, quickly. I will talk to the Prince.

Juliet You're lying!

Lady Capulet I wish I were!

Romeo It won't make any different, there's no way out.

Lord Montague

Lady Capulet If only, if only...

21., FoolsThe Nurse I bear the pain you bear I cry the tears you cry Juliet, you must be strong Every time I see you cry I die, I die We both must try What good to you am I?

Oh, fools Men are fools They're like stubborn mules Refusing to bend Where will all this end? What can any of us do? How much more can we go through? When will every man lay down his sword? When will we all live in accord? When will the Lord visit Verona?

Friar The Prince has saved your life It was kind of him to banish you Half of this town is after your blood The blood of a Montague I'd say your life is worthless here You've everything to fear

Oh, fools Men are fools They're like stubborn mules Refusing to bend Where will all this end? What can any of us do? How much more can we go through?

Both When will every man lay down his sword? When will we all live in accord? When will the Lord visit Verona?

Chorus Fools Men are fools They can't live by rules They always want more They're in love with war Why are they so proud to fight? And destroy with all their might Why is it important to be brave? Why do we all need flags to wave? Why can't we save precious Verona? Verona

Juliet Oh my love You are wrong You must have heard the night bird's song I can't bear the silent eye The cruelest word is goodbye If you must leave, as you must do I'll follow you

No place too far I have to be where you are Love me, dream me Until you see me

Romeo No place too far My heart will be where you are No matter where I look Your face is what I'll see How can we be apart When you live inside of me?

Juliet _____________ Why am I so frightened?

Both No place too far I have to be where you are Love me, dream me Until you see me

No place is too far I want to be where you are

The Nurse Juliet, hurry! The sun's up, and your mother's on the prowl. Romeo, you must go! If the prince hears that you're still...

Romeo Juliet! I have to go to Mantua. But every day, I'm going to send you letters, and write...

Juliet But will we see each other again?

Romeo Oh, yes!

Juliet I love you, Romeo.

Romeo And I love you.

The Nurse Well, love won't save you from the wrath of your mother-in-law. Especially when she finds out she is your mother-in-law. Now go!

Romeo Trust me ... I'm going! We will see each other again, Juliet. It was the night of my life. Thanks.

She's yours She's yours She's yours Lucky man, she's yours

Lady Capulet Juliet You know how much your father loves you We both Are sure he'll make the perfect husband We have all known such grief Now it's time to let go Paris is quite a catch You will be glad, I know

He's yours He's yours He's yours Lucky girl, he's yours

Paris And now we should rejoice It's time for celebration

Paris and Lady Capulet There's much to do A wedding takes A lot of preparation

Chorus She's yours She's yours She's yours Lucky man, she's yours

Chorus He's yours He's yours He's yours Lucky girl, he's yours

24., She Came From MeLord Capulet I have been blessed, why should this be? Why have the gods looked down on me? Her girlish laugh, her open ways They invade my nights and light my days My Juliet so sweet, so small A smile that could make giants fall The greatest joy I'll never know Is knowing she still loves me so I can't believe

She came from me, she came from me Hard to believe she came from me I live for her, I die for her I am so proud and yet I fear This angry world will get too near

This world is filled with selfish men Who turn girls' heads time and again I know it's time to set her free But letting go is hard for me The time has come

These days she wears a painted face Her heart beats at a faster pace Another man has come and captured her He's so polite, he calls me sir I've welcomed him, that's what you do I tell myself he loves her too No one will see what I go through

She is a joy, she is a curse The ruler of my universe If Paris lets her down, he wouldn't dare If he breaks her heart I'll break him I swear I'll live in her when I am gone To think that I will still live on How can it be she came from me

A gift from God, a precious prize I stare and can't believe my eyes I watched her grow and grow and grow There's one thing I will never know, how can it be

She came from me

25., All Days are the Same Without YouRomeo I cannot find a thing To occupy my mind I don't know what to do Time can be so unkind It seems a hundred hours In every endless day And yet when you are near Time just flies away Memories restore me

That's what keeps me going The rivers are still now They'll soon be flowing

Juliet My life is being planned By everyone but me I can't believe that this is How life's meant to be I wish I had a wand That I could simply wave Then I would just reverse The wisdom they all gave With this wand All my pain would be ended And we'd be together The way God intended

Romeo All days are the same without love Sundays, Tuesdays, Thursdays

Juliet Strange how nothing ever changes And it's strange how nothing matters

Both All days are the same without you Without you beside me Who cares if the moon seems closer Or the stars seem brighter All days are the same without you But with you the days glow Each one's an adventure Anything can happen My heart never ages Each day's been created For you

All days are the same without you But with you the days glow Each one's an adventure Anything can happen My heart never ages Each day's been created For you

All days are the same without you

Juliet Friar Laurence! They're making me marry Paris tomorrow!

The Friar I know, Juliet.

Juliet You also know I'm already married. What am I going to do? Help me!

The Friar Juliet, Juliet!

Juliet You're partly responsible for this!

The Friar I know, I know! Tell them you'll marry Paris.

Juliet I can't!

Juliet Why? What do you want me to do with it?

The Friar It's a poison.

Juliet You want me to kill myself?

The Friar No. No, it's not a real poison. But once you've drunk it, it will look like you've died. You'll lose the colour in your face, you won't appear to be breathing. They'll think you killed yourself. And in a day and a half, you'll wake up. In the meantime, I'll get a message to Romeo, telling him about our plan. When you open your eyes, you can join him in Mantua.

Juliet A day and a half. Of death.

The Friar Yes.

Juliet I'll do it! Thank you. Thank you!

The Friar Take this message to Romeo Montague in Mantua. Guard it with your life.

Juliet What if I wake too soon? What if the dose is too small? What if Friar Lawrence is tricking us? What if he's been paid by my parents and I have to marry Paris? What if...? Or if...? Tybalt... Romeo... What if it works? I'll be woken by my love, and we can be together, forever.

Lady Capulet Juliet? Come along, darling, you can't stay in bed all day. Paris'll be at the church soon. I promise you, it's going to be fine. Come on, sleepyhead. Juliet. Come on, wake up... No. No! Not my baby, no! Servant!

Benvolio There's nobody else, sir? Well, what can I...? How can I...?

27., I Can´t Do This Benvolio How does one begin to say All the dreams you dreamed died today? Your visions of a perfect life are over How on earth do I find the words that will somehow ease your pain? Help me, God, where do I start? Why must I destroy my best friend's heart?

We were once kings of the world We just laughed our way through those carefree years In a way, I wish they had never met Wish that I could bring back Juliet That can't be No, that can't be

I can't do this I can't do this I will not break the news, this tragic news He should be told by a priest Someone who is old and wise Who can find the reason why Someone so young just dies

I can't do this And yet I know I must do this

Mercutio, where is your ghost? How dare you die when I need you most? Everything we ever did, we did together I cannot do this on my own Sorry, I'm not made that way Do I say that time will heal That he will live through this ordeal?

What if I break down and cry? That would be the worst thing I could do I don't trust myself, I will get it wrong I'm too close a friend, I'm not that strong No, not me It can't be me

I can't do this I can't do this I know how I would be if he told me I would drink myself to sleep And I'd pray I'd never wake That way I'd never hear The scream a heart can make I must do this God give me strength And I'll do this

I can't do this I must do this I know I am the one, the only one We are still kings of the world And that's where we'll always be He knows how much I love him It's best he hears from me I must do this I will do this I must do this I must do this

It's not enough to live with memories It's not enough to relive every moment I want more my love If we're born to live together Then we're born to die together

God knows why I've lost you I don't know why something like this should happen I just want to forget all my sorrow Being with you can ease my pain I'm afraid of being apart It's too much for my heart

God knows why I've lost you Why so many pleasures will be denied us We've never danced in the rain We've not laughed in the sun The music just stopped when it had just begun Wait there, Juliet, I'll soon be with you Far from this world

God knows why It's over I don't care The reasons don't matter I'm too tired to go on All I live for has gone But we'll meet in the sky So I'll not say goodbye I'll be with you soon And we'll dance on the moon Beyond the stars

Juliet It worked! I'm here. I'm here, Romeo, Friar Lawrence has done it! Come on, wake up, we have to go. Romeo, say something! Look at me! I'm alive!

I don't want to live like this I could not endure the quiet If I'm with you what's there to miss Without you life is just a word And all days will be the same I'm not strong enough to stay here If this is wrong I'll take the blame We'll soon be together Morning will find us

Where rivers keep flowing With mountains all around us And peace in the heavens You gave away your life for me And now at last we'll both be free

Where rivers keep flowing With this world far below us Away from the hatred No battle's ever really won When somebody has lost a son

Wait for me I'll soon be there I'll be your eternal bride No more dreaming in the shadows There'll be no feelings we must hide As I die I wonder What's to believe in?

It's too late for questions And no one has the answers But what does it matter You gave away your life for me And now at last we'll both be free

Where rivers keep flowing With this world far below us When dawn breaks tomorrow There'll be no bloodshed and no wars The eyes I'll gaze on will be yours

30., Empty Skies Friar Laurence Dear God, Dear God What are you doing up there? Have I been speaking to an empty sky? If not, then tell me why I gave my life to you, my faith had never been in doubt The sins that pleasure man I have learned to live without Till now I believed that you were everywhere But if the good still die then what's the sense in prayer? We scream but You don't hear, we look to You in vain If You really exist, then why don't You explain Don't leave me now

Dear God, please God Forgive me if I fail you I always thought that faith would keep me strong I see, now I was wrong What good are sacred words Written in books as old as time The steps that are ahead of me Maybe too high climb Can I still spread your word? Can I still be your voice? I thought my life was You, but I feel I have a choice I go down on my knees, dear God give me a sign Tell me that all of this is in your grand design Please don't leave me know

I comfort and I soothe the troubled and the weak I give my people strength when everything looks bleak With you inside of me, no wound could be too deep But now I feel I'm lost, have I the right to weep? I need your help right now, tell me what must be done You are still my Father and I am still your son Don't leave me now

Dear God, where are you hiding? Dear God, speak to me I need to know your plan When will all this make sense to me I'm blind, make me see

Dear God of all men Please shine a light my way Give me some hope to face the day I'm lost, all I can do is pray

31., GuiltyLady Montague There's no pain deeper There's no day darker It's the cruelest nightmare To outlive your children We have let this happen And so we must share the blame

Lady Capulet Angry gods will judge us For the harm we did them May their souls forgive us May they rest in heaven And stay in love forever As we bow our heads in shames

Lady Montague Let their deaths unite us

Lady Capulet Let us join together

Lady Montague, Lady Capulet, The Nurse That's the way to honour Romeo and Juliet

Let their deaths unite us Let us join together

The Nurse Give their lives some meaning

Lady Montague, Lady Capulet, The Nurse Romeo and Juliet

Chorus Fools Men are fools They're like Stubborn mules Refusing to bend Where will all this end? What can any of us do? How much more can we go through? When will every man lay down his sword? When will we all live in accord? When will the Lord visit Verona?

Fools Men are fools They're like Stubborn mule

Capulets We're born to hate As it's in the air It's in the It's in the air And to survive We breathe its We breathe its fumes Montagues Ha, ha, ha evil Capulets Ha, ha, ha they have no regrets They do wicked things But they all sleep well They will feel at home when they get to hell Let's blow them a kiss The Nurse Oh, fools Men are fools They're like stubborn mules Refusing to bend Where will all this end? What can any of us do? How much more can we go through?
