letra de woman - claude-michel schönberg

Loading...

[grania, sung]
woman i am born
what does “woman” mean?
must my dreams face scorn
held back and unseen

if i long for fire
must it stay unreal?
can i not desire?
am i not to feel?

if i ache to taste
am i not to try?
if my heart says, “sail”
why should i deny?

i have my dreams
i have made plans
i see horizons wide as a man’s
must i be nothing till i’m some man’s wife?

look at this face
does it deceive?
do i look made to milk and to weave?
i will be d-mned to h-ll if that is my life!

(spoken)
blasphemy–i know, forgive me!
but i won’t take it back! i won’t!

[tiernan, spoken]
i understand you! somehow i never pictured you knitting

[grania, sung]
i’m almost your age
i’m your match in size
i’m as sk!lled with swords
and equal in most eyes

but when you have a dream
and you’re caught in its grip
you can climb aboard a ship
you can, you can, for you’re a man!

you can reach toward that place
where the earth meets the sky
fight a battle, be brave, be true
if you can do it, why not i?

i’m meant to fly
sail unrestrained
why is man free and woman chained?
is that my epitaph before i die?

i should be free
free to be grace
so i can feel the wind on my face!

and when life beckons, i should go
face out the storm, not stay below
am i to be just woman? no, not i!
