  1. A Question of Honour [Part 2, Radio Edit]
  2. Ebbene? ... N'andrò lontana,
    Come va l'eco della pia camana,
    Là, fra la neve bianca;
    Là, fra le nubi d'or;
    Là, dov'è la speranza, la speranza
    Il rimpianto, il rimpianto, e il dolor!

    Ebbene? ... N'andrò lontana,
    Là, dov'è la speranza, la speranza
    Il rimpianto
    Sola e lontana!

    Two men collide
    When two men collide, when two men collide
    It's a question of honour
    Two men collide
    When two men collide, when two men collide
    It's a question of honour
    Two men collide
    When two men collide, when two men collide

    If you win or you lose, it's a question of honour
    And the way that you choose, it's a question of honour

    I can't tell what's wrong or right
    If black is white or day is night
    But I know when two men collide
    It's a question of honour

    If you win or you lose, it's a question of honour
    And the way that you choose, it's a question of honour
    If you win or you lose, it's a question of honour
    And the way that you choose, it's a question of honour

    I can't tell what's wrong or right
    If black is white or day is night
    I know when two men collide
    It's a question of honour

    Ebbene? ... N'andrò lontana,
    Come l'eco della pia campana,
    Là, fra la neve bianca;
    Là, fra le nubi d'or;
    N'andrò, n'andrò sola e lontana!
    E fra le nubi d'or!

    Well? I will go far,
    As the echo of the devout bell goes,
    Here, between the snow white woman;
    Here, between clouds of or;
    Here, dov' it is the hope, the hope
    The regret, the regret, and the dolor!

    Well? N' I will go far,
    Here, dov' it is the hope, the hope
    The regret
    Single and far!

    Well? N' I will go far, Like the echo of the devout bell,
    Here, between the snow white woman;
    Here, between clouds of or;
    N' I will go, n' I will go single and far!
    And between clouds of or!

  3. Heaven is Here
  4. Good times and bad times
    There's noting I forget
    Sun shines on our lifelines
    There's noting I'll regret

    Hold me and feel me
    And wrap your arms around
    Coz when you love me I'm quite clear
    That heaven is here

    Hear my confession
    We're meant to be as one
    Leave me to the mystery
    Of happiness to come

    Touch me I'll give
    My blessings and desire
    Coz when you feel eternal fire
    Then heaven is here

    Bad times and street crimes
    No matter where you go
    Some secrets preach and some fools teach
    They're giving us some show

    So send me an angel
    And wrap your arms around
    Coz when it all comes down you'll know
    That heaven is here

  5. Who Wants to Live Forever
  6. There's no time for us
    There's no place for us
    What is this thing that builds our dreams
    Yet slips away from us?

    Who wants to live forever?
    Who wants to live forever?

    There's no chance for us,
    It's all decided for us,
    This world has only one sweet moment
    Set aside for us

    Who wants to live forever?
    Who wants to live forever?

    Now touch my tears with your lips
    Touch my world with your fingertips
    And we can have forever
    And we can love forever
    Forever is our today

    Who wants to live forever?
    Who wants to live forever?

    Who waits forever anyway?

  7. Time to Say Goodbye
  8. Sarah:
    Quando sono sola
    sogno all'orizzonte
    e mancan le parole,
    si lo so che non c'è luce
    in una stanza quando manca il sole,
    se non ci sei tu con me, con me.
    Su le finestre
    mostra a tutti il mio cuore
    che hai accesso,
    chiudi dentro me
    la luce che
    hai incontrato per strada.

    Time to say goodbye. -- Con te partirò.
    Paesi che non ho mai
    veduto e vissuto con te,
    adesso sì li vivrò.
    Con te partirò
    su navi per mari
    che, io lo so,
    no, no, non esistono più,
    it's time to say goodbye. -- Con te io li vivrò.

    Andrea:
    Quando sei lontana
    sogno all'orizzonte
    e mancan le parole,
    e io si lo so
    che sei con me, con me,
    tu mia luna tu sei qui con me,
    mio sole tu sei qui con me,
    con me, con me, con me.

    Time to say goodbye. -- Con te partirò.
    Paesi che non ho mai
    veduto e vissuto con te,
    adesso sì li vivrò.
    Con te partirò
    su navi per mari
    che, io lo so,
    no, no, non esistono più,

    Both:
    con te io li rivivrò.
    Con te partirò
    su navi per mari
    che, io lo so,
    no, no, non esistono più,
    con te io li rivivrò.
    Con te partirò

    Io con te.

  9. Tu Quieres Volver
  10. Ahora
    Tú me pierdes la razon
    Mo digas nada
    Siempre siempre sera los dos
    Sabemos
    Aquella noche
    Y por la calle
    Lo mismo sera

    Tú quieres volver y no te veo mas
    Tú quieres volver y no me siento na
    Tú quieres volver y no te veo mas
    Tú quieres volver y no me siento na

    Tú quieres volver y no te veo mas
    Tú quieres volver y no me encuentro mas
    Tú quieres volver y no te veo mas
    Tú quieres volver y no me encuentro mas

    Yo pienso aquel dia
    Lo mismo que ayer
    Lo mismo sera

    Yo pienso aquel dia
    Lo mismo que ayer
    Lo mismo pensa

    Tú quieres volver y no te veo mas
    Tú quieres volver y no me encuentro mas
    Tú quieres volver y no te veo mas
    Tú quieres volver y no me encuentro mas

    Tú quieres volver y no te veo mas
    Tú quieres volver y no me encuentro mas
    Tú quieres volver y no te veo mas
    Tú quieres volver y no me encuentro mas

    Now
    You make me lose reason
    don't say anything
    always, always it will be the two of us
    we know that night and in the street
    the same thing will be

    You want to return and I don't see you anymore
    you want to return and I don't feel anything.
    You want to return and I don't see you anymore
    you want to return and I don't feel anything.

    You want to return and I don't see you anymore
    you want to return and I can't find myself anymore.
    You want to return and I don't see you anymore
    you want to return and I can't find myself anymore.

    I think that day, the same thing as yesterday, the same thing will be.
    I think that day, the same thing as yesterday, the same thinking.

    You want to return and I don't see you anymore
    you want to return and I can't find myself anymore.
    You want to return and I don't see you anymore
    you want to return and I can't find myself anymore.

  11. Just Show Me How to Love You
  12. Sarah Brightman
    Tu cosa fai stasera?
    Rimani ancora un pò
    sarà quest' atmosfera
    ma non mi dire di no

    Per farti prigioniero
    qualcosa inventerò
    ma che bisogno c'era
    di amarti subito un pó

    José Cura
    Questo giorno è una pazzia
    ma la luna è amica mia
    se ti resta un sogno da buttare via
    soli in mezzo a una città
    Solo amici e poi chissà

    Poi non basta mai
    tante cose da dirsi
    e baciarsi e capirsi e stringersi
    poi non basta mai
    si fa tardi ma dai
    dove corri a quest'ora?

    Both
    Just show me how to love you
    Io non ti lascio pi
    gabbiano di scogliera
    io sto una favola e tu?
    Just show me how to love you

    Sarah Brightman
    Fame o febbre o quel che sia
    mi ci sento a casa mia
    dentro questo sogno da buttare via
    non mi sembra vero ma
    sembra un'altra la città

    José Cura
    E non basta mai
    tante cose da dirsi
    e baciarsi e capirsi e stringersi
    e non basta mai
    é già tardi ma dai
    dove torni a quest'ora?

    Both
    Just show me how to love you
    E ci ridiamo su
    gabbiano di scogliera
    ma dov'êri nascosto'
    dov'êri finora?

    Sarah Brightman
    Tu cosa fai stasera?
    ci ridiamo su
    magari un'altra sera
    ed è già domattina
    e la luna la spegni tu!

    Sarah Brightman
    What are you doing tonight?
    Stay a little longer
    It may be this place
    But don't say no

    I will invent something
    To hold you prisoner
    But what was the need
    To love you just a bit

    José Cura
    This day is crazy
    But the moon is my friend
    If you still have a dream
    Alone in the middle of a city
    Only friends and then who knows

    Then it's never enough
    So many things to tell each other
    And kissing and understanding and hugging
    Then it's never enough
    And we get late, but come on
    Where are you running to this time?

    Both
    Just show me how to love you
    I will never leave you
    Like a seagull on the rocks
    I stay a fairytale, and you?
    What are you doing tonight?

    Sarah Brightman
    Hunger or fever or whatever
    I feel at home
    Inside this dream to throw away
    It doesn't seem true but
    It seems another city

    José Cura
    And it's never enough
    So many things to tell each other
    And kissing and understanding and hugging
    And it's never enough
    It's already late, but come on
    Where are you going back to this time?

    Both
    Just show me how to love you
    And we shall laugh about it
    Seagull on the rocks
    Where were you hiding?
    Where were you until now?

    Sarah Brightman
    What are you doing tonight?
    We'll laugh about it
    May be another night
    And it's already tomorrow morning
    And you must turn off the moon!

  13. Eden
  14. Did you ever think of me,
    As your best friend
    Did I ever think of you,
    I'm not complaining

    I never tried to feel
    I never tried to feel
    This vibration
    I never tried to reach
    I never tried to reach
    Your eden

    Did I ever think of you,
    As my enemy
    Did you ever think of me,
    I'm not complaining

    I never tried to feel
    I never tried to feel
    This vibration.
    I never tried to reach
    I never tried to reach
    Your eden

    I never tried to feel
    I never tried to...
    Your eden

  15. Nella Fantasia
  16. Nella fantasia io vedo un mondo giusto
    li tutti vivono in pace e in onestà
    Io sogno d'anime che sono sempre libere
    come le nuvole che volano
    pien' d'umanità in fondo all'anima

    Nella fantasia io vedo un mondo chiaro
    li anche la notte è meno oscura
    Io sogno d'anime che sono sempre libere
    come le nuvole che volano

    Nella fantasia esiste un vento caldo
    che soffia sulle città, come amico
    Io sogno d'anime che sono sempre libere
    come le nuvole che volano
    pien' d'umanità in fondo all'anima

    In my fantasy I see a just world
    Where everyone lives in peace and honesty
    I dream of a place to live that is always free
    Like a cloud that floats
    Full of humanity in the depths of the soul

    In my fantasy I see a bright world
    Where each night there is less darkness
    I dream of souls that are always free
    Like the cloud that floats

    In my fantasy exists a warm wind
    That breathes into the city, like a friend
    I dream of souls that are always free
    Like the cloud that floats

  17. Deliver Me
  18. Deliver me, out of my sadness
    Deliver me, from all of the madness
    Deliver me, courage to guide me
    Deliver me, strength from inside me

    All of my life I've been in hiding
    Wishing there was someone just like you
    Now that you're here, now that I've found you
    I know that you're the one to pull me through

    Deliver me, loving and caring
    Deliver me, giving and sharing
    Deliver me, the cross that I'm bearing

    All of my life I was in hiding
    Wishing there was someone just like you
    Now that you're here, now that I've found you
    I know that you're the one to pull me through

    Deliver me
    Deliver me
    Oh deliver me

    All of my life I was in hiding
    Wishing there was someone just like you
    Now that you're here, now that I've found you
    I know that you're the one to pull me through

    Deliver me
    Oh deliver me
    Won't you deliver me

  19. Only an Ocean Away
  20. I see a shadow every day and night.
    I walk a hundred streets of neon lights,
    Only when I'm crying.
    Can you hear me crying.
    So many times you always wanted more,
    Chasing illusions that you're longing for.
    Wish I wasn't crying.
    Can you hear me crying.

    There's an ocean between us.
    You know where to find me.
    You reach out and touch me.
    I feel you in my own heart.
    More than a lifetime.
    Still goes on forever.
    But it helps to remember
    You're only an ocean away.

    Was there a moment when I felt no pain.
    I want to feel it in my life again.
    Let it be over now.
    Oh Oh over now.
    'Cause I remember all the days and nights
    We used to walk the streets of neon lights
    Oh I want you here with me.
    Oh be here with me.

    There's an ocean between us.
    You know where to find me.
    You reach out and touch me.
    I feel you in my own heart.
    More than a lifetime
    Still goes on forever.
    But it helps to remember
    You're only an ocean away.

    So many times you always wanted more,
    Chasing illusions that you're longing for.
    Wish I wasn't crying.
    Can you hear me crying.

    There's an ocean between us.
    You know where to find me.
    Just reach out and touch me.
    I feel you in my own heart.
    More than a lifetime
    It seems like forever.
    But I'll always remember
    You're only an ocean away.

    Only an ocean away.

  21. Scarborough Fair
  22. Are you going to Scarborough Fair?
    Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
    Remember me to one who lives there
    He once was a true love of mine

    Tell him to make me a cambric shirt
    Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
    Without no seams nor needle work
    Then he'll be a true love of mine

    Tell him to find me an acre of land
    Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
    Between salt water and the sea strands
    Then he'll be a true love of mine

    Tell him to reap it with a sickle of leather
    Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
    And gather it all in a bunch of heather
    Then he'll be a true love of mine

    Are you going to Scarborough Fair?
    Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
    Remember me to one who lives there
    He once was a true love of mine

  23. A Whiter Shade of Pale
  24. We skipped the light Fandango
    And turned cartwheels across the floor
    I was feeling kind of seasick
    But the crowd called out for more
    The room was humming harder
    As the ceiling flew away
    When we called out for another drink
    The waiter brought a tray

    And so it was that later
    As the miller told his tale
    That her face at first just ghostly
    Turned a whiter shade of pale

    She said "There is no reason...
    And the truth is plain to see."
    But I wandered through my playing cards
    And would not let her be
    One of sixteen vestal virgins
    Who were leaving for the coast
    And although my eyes were open
    They might just as well have been closed

    And so it was that later
    As the miller told his tale
    That her face at first just ghostly
    Turned a whiter shade of pale

  25. First of May
  26. When I was small, and Christmas trees were tall,
    we used to love while others used to play.
    Don't ask me why, but time has passed us by,
    someone else moved in from far away.

    Now we are tall, and Christmas trees are small,
    and you don't ask the time of day.
    But you and I, our love will never die,
    but guess who'll cry come first of May.

    The apple tree that grew for you and me,
    I watched the apples falling one by one.
    And as I recall the moment of them all,
    the day I kissed your cheek and you were gone.

    Now we are tall, and Christmas trees are small,
    and you don't ask the time of day.
    But you and I, our love will never die,
    but guess who'll cry come first of May.

    When I was small, and Christmas trees were tall,
    do do do do do do do do do ...
    Don't ask me why, but time has passed us by,
    someone else moved in from far away.

  27. Captain Nemo
  28. Under the surface so crystal clear
    Everyone was really tense
    Waiting down there
    He had his own world just like I had mine
    We'll go seperate ways 'til the next time
    There are no words to say as
    My friend swims away

    Captain Nemo said, "Okay"
    (five, four, three, two, one)
    Then I raised my hand and waved
    Captain Nemo went away
    (Love me when I'm gone)
    Left 'em all alone, Nemo's going home

    And as I watched him, police boats approached
    An alien force haunting us like ghosts
    "Wish I could stay here and play for a while
    But I must be on my way..."
    The warmest of smiles
    Then he dived into the waves among the other whales

    Captain Nemo said, "Okay"
    (five, four, three, two, one)
    Then I raised my hand and waved
    Captain Nemo went away
    (Love me when I'm gone)
    Left 'em all alone, Nemo's going home...

  29. La Mer
  30. Ancient unknown animals
    On a stormy sea
    Like Buddha in the water
    A velvet energy

    As the night takes over
    The spirits of the deep
    Marvel at his majesty
    The whale is in his sleep

    Oh, la mer
    You're shimmering through
    Oh, la mer
    Magnificent blue

    Shimmering through the water
    In search of sanctuary
    Currents travel faster
    In alien territory

    Dancing in the distance
    In a puff of spray
    In a single moment
    The dolphin glides away

    Oh, la mer
    You're shimmering through
    Oh, la mer
    Magnificent blue

    Oh, la mer...

  31. The Last Words You Said
  32. Somewhere in time I know,
    Darling you'll come back to me.
    Roses will bloom again,
    But Spring feels like eternity.
    In your kiss it wasn't goodbye.
    You are still the reason why.

    I can hear you whispering in the silence of my room,
    My heart still surrenders like the sun to the moon.
    I can barely stand this aching, burning endlessly.
    "Love me now forever,"
    Were the last words you said to me.

    And when the morning comes,
    My hands still reach out for you.
    Some things remain the same,
    There is nothing I can do.
    I can barely get through the day
    Ever since you went away.

    I can hear you whispering in the silence of my room,
    My heart still surrenders like the sun to the moon.
    I can barely stand this aching, burning endlessly.
    "Love me now forever,"
    Were your last words to me ...

    Heaven help us cross this endless sea
    With starlight above to guide you to me.
    Waves crashing on distant shores,
    They're calling our names forever more.

    And I still hear you whispering in the silence of my room,
    My heart still surrenders like the sun to the moon.
    I can barely stand this aching, burning endlessly.
    "Love me now forever,"
    Were the last words you said to me.
