Testo I Leave the World - Joel Grey
Testo della canzone I Leave the World (Joel Grey), tratta dall'album Goodtime Charley (Original Broadway Cast Recording)
Ladies and gentlemen, I give you King Charles, who was well served
By the blessed Joan of Arc. I give you King Charles, who unified
And created a French nation single-handed. I give you King Charles
Who ended the One Hundred Years War. I give you King Charles
My friends, who rode into battle at the head of his troops
Took Rouen, and reconvened the trial that vindicated the virgin-
Martyr of Loiret. I give you King Charles, who is fifty-eight
Years old this day. I give you King Charles the Seventh of France!
Blow out all the candles
One for every year
No, leave a candle burning
For the one year she was here
I leave the world some footprints in the sand
The world will understand
The world will understand
I leave the world a castle in the air
I never got to share
It's still up there somewhere
I leave the world, for what it's worth
The space I took upon this earth
The empty place I had to face alone
I leave the world a love I couldn't trust
And left to gather dust
Too long inside of me
I leave the world to tell me if it can
If I was half the man she wanted me to be
If I was half the man she wanted me to be
I ask the world
Was I half the man she wanted me to be?
If I was half the man she wanted me to be
