letra de the confrontation - alistair brammer

[chris]
we couldn’t find her anywhere. honey what’s wrong?
[ellen]
kim was here, the one who had to tell her was me
[chris]
oh my god, i knew we were gone too long
[ellen]
no i think it’s exactly what i had to see
you said you slept with her, that’s all you were
only one thing you left out is that you loved her
[chris]
ye-yes we were in love. it was years ago- we were torn apart
[ellen]
don’t explain- there’s nothing you can say
it’s like she’s gone insane
she tried to give away her own child
[chris]
ellen, just list-
[ellen]
you weren’t here
i saw the look in her eyes
don’t you see, she still thinks she’s married to you
you must tell her she’s not, she must hear it from you
‘course it only depends if it’s true
[chris]
don’t you doubt me, ellen
you’re my wife
lot’s of guys came back and had no life
i had you. hey-
[ellen]
you can say what you want but she’s borne you a son
in your nightmares the name that you shouted was hers
you’ve been with me two years and not shared things you’ve done
don’t hold back
let me see
is it her now or me?
[chris]
let me tell you the way it was back when i was a different man. back when i didn’t have a clue what was right
they drafted me and shipped me out, to wind up up in a senseless fight

there in the shambles of a war
i found what i was looking for
saigon was crazed, but she was real, and for one moment i could feel

i saw a world i never knew
and through her eyes i suffered too
in spite of all the things that were, i started to believe in her

so i wanted to save and protect her
christ, i’m an american, how could i fail to do good?
but all i made was a mess, just like everyone else in a place full of mystery that i never once understood!
i wanted back a world i knew
the story of my life began again with you
[ellen]
it’s alright now, that’s all through
[chris]
oh, ellen, i should have told you
[ellen]
we’ll get past this, start anew
[chris]
will you ever trust me again?
[ellen]
all i want in my life now
[chris]
all i have in my life now
[ellen & chris]
is you
[john]
(spoken) hey, you guys okay?
[ellen]
(spoken) kim was here
[john]
(spoken) oh my god, alone?
[chris]
(spoken) yeah, while we were out looking for her
[john]
(spoken) need some time?
[ellen]
(spoken) no, we’re okay now
[john]
(spoken) have you discussed tam? (sings) look, i run a camp that is filled with bui-doi
[chris]
(spoken) john…
[john]
looking for the fathers that they may never find
i don’t know what i’d do if tam were my boy
do you want to take him out or leave him behind?
[chris]
he’s my son
i won’t abandon him. except that, jesus christ, john there is also kim
what of her?
[ellen]
if it was only tam, we’d take him now
he’s chris’s son. we’d make it work somehow, but john, she still loves him
how can we have her there?
[chris]
there’s no choice
i think the answer’s clear
we’ll have to stay in bangkok
we’ll support them here
[ellen]
i think this is the answer
[john]
listen, you didn’t see what’s in this girl’s head
[chris]
for now this is the answer
[john]
i hope you’re both proud of what you just said
[chris]
it’s done
[ellen & chris]
it’s planned. kim is smart. she’ll understand
[kim]
you must take tam with you
[ellen & chris]
in bangkok, he will go to american schools
[kim]
i won’t break my promise to my son
[ellen & chris]
you will start a new life
[kim]
you will take tam with you
[ellen & chris]
we’ll provide for their needs
[john]
you’re both talking like fools!
[kim]
you won’t forget tam is a part of you
[ellen & chris]
we will
[john] you should
[ellen, chris & john]
right for tam, right for us, and for kim
[kim]
i still taste your kisses
your voice sings in my ear
you can betray what we were yesterday
but you’ll come back tonight for him
