Lyrics
I'm not here as a friend
I have a job to do
It's strange to find my work should lead me here to you
Chris knows all about you
I have shown him all this
But I think that it's time you know
All about Chris
Yes!
Tell me everything, I beg you
How I've longed for this to start
All my prayers are finally answered
This is too much for one heart
Kim, he went crazy
When he lost you
Spoke to no one for a year
Then he finally said I'm home now
My life has to go on here
(What does that mean?)
Kim, let me finish talking please
That was three whole years ago
Yes, yes I know
I know how pain can grow
When the rock you hold onto
Is a lot of miles away
Listen!
Please, I already know this story
Take us to the USA
When we're finished here
You'll see him
Chris arrived with me today
Oh Tam, he's here!
He's here, he's so near
We might breathe the same air tonight
Your father's here
I dreamed so hard
(I can't tell her like this)
I kept my faith
(I should not be the one)
And now it's true
(Chris must first see his son)
Now I can see we've been watched over
(They don't say in the files, there's a woman in love here)
And our life's about to start
(What I see in her eyes Chris still knows nothing of)
Sun and Moon will be together
This is too much for one heart
There's only one thing I can do
I must bring Chris here to see you
I thought I said no kids around
So what's the brat doing here?
You better take care
I'm watching both of you!
You and your engineer!
Sir, would you like a massage?
(No thanks, it's not my scene)
I can get boys from La Cage
(Oh, whatever, man)
Why is he leaving?
What is that look?
He was right on the hook
Don't tell me he slipped free
Engineer, Chris is here
John is going to get him and bring him to me
My heart's ready to burst
I don't know what I'll tell him first
That guy is no one to trust
Or a soldier who just learned
He fathered a son!
You got to get to Chris first
I will find his address
Now, before he can run
You can trust what he'll do
Don't you worry, I'll mention you
You'll mention me?
Don't screw with me, little bitch
I don't want any hitch
You just do as you're told
You go to his hotel
I'll be working as well
Guarding our bag of gold
Tell me where and I'll go
He'll be longing for me, I know
You have brought me through the lightning
You have watched me from afar
You know all and you forgive me
Loving parents that you are
Please, may your daughter have your blessing
(Go on, talk to your ghost, little girl, 'til you're blue)
On the life about to start
(You have one chance, just one)
We must journey to a new world
(He's here talking to you)
This is too much for one heart
I'll fix this, make yourself pretty
