From Aida |
|
Amneris: |
|
How did I come to this? |
|
How did I slip and fall? |
|
How did I throw half a lifetime away |
|
Without any thought at all? |
|
This should have been my time |
|
It's over, it never began |
|
I closed my eyes to so much for so long |
|
and I no longer can |
|
I try to blame it on fortune |
|
Some kind of shift in the stars |
|
But I know the truth and it haunts me |
|
it's flown just a little too far |
|
I know the truth and it mocks me |
|
I know the truth and it shocks me |
|
It's flown just a little, too far. |
|
Why do I want her still? |
|
Why when there's nothing there? |
|
How to go on with the rest of my life |
|
To pretend I don't care |
|
This should've been my time |
|
It's over-It never began |
|
I closed my eyes to so much for so long |
|
and I no longer can |
|
I try to blame it on fortune |
|
Some kind of twist in my fate |
|
But I know the truth and it haunts me |
|
I learned it a little too late |
|
I know the truth and it mocks me |
|
I know the truth and it shocks me |
|
I learned it just a little too late |
