letra de lilacs - dave malloy

(lilacs arrive at rach’s door)

[rach]
every sunday
i get lilacs
in the mail
no matter where i am
moscow, dresden, or new york…
white lilacs

even in winter
when the trees are frozen and bare
impossibly they come
lilacs at my door
how can i live up to this?

sometimes i’m a good man
and sometimes i am not

[natalya (bringing in more lilacs)]
a lover, serge?

[rach]
no, no, natalya
not a lover
just a lady who likes lilacs i guess

[natalya]
and who likes you

[rach]
she doesn’t even know me-

[natalya]
-she admires you from afar!
you music must have done something to her

[rach]
maybe she’s my secret muse
and she’s letting it build up inside me
maybe each lilac is just one part of a puzzle
and they all fit together
thousands of lilacs
in a grand cathedral
where the sun comes in through the flowers
but i need them all
every last one
only when they’re all together
when they’re finally all together
all the lilacs will come to life
they’ll spring up and dance a rhumba
dance on my chest
and then they’ll race to an open field
and they’ll climb over each other
and they’ll build this great thing

[natalya]
or maybe the lilacs are poisoning you
maybe the lilacs are blocking you
maybe she’s an anti-muse

[rach]
maybe so

[natalya]
have you been to see dahl yet?
the hypnotherapist?

[rach]
yes
i mean, i’m going to
i mean, i think i already have

[natalya]
you should go
get out of the house
i have students today
but be back by five, the priest is coming by, to help us get an audience with the tsar

[rach]
priest?

[natalya]
i told you this

[rach]
yes, yes of course!

[natalya]
you do still want to get married, cousin?

[rach]
cousin yes i do

[natalya]
good. now go
i have things to do, you know?
