How strange, this feeling that my life's begun at last This change, can people really fall in love so fast? What's the matter with you, Gazette? Have you been too much on your own? So many things unclear, so many things unknown In my life, there are so many questions and answers that somehow seem wrong In my life, there are times when I catch in the silence the sigh of a faraway song And it seems, the world that I long to see, out of reach Just a whisper away, waiting for me Does he know I'm alive? Do I know if he's real? Does he see what I see? Does he feel what I feel? In my life, I'm no longer alone, now that love in my life is so near Find me now, find me here Dear Gazette, you're such a lonely child How pensive, how sad you seem to me Believe me, were it within my power I'd fill each passing hour How quiet it must be, I can see With only me for company There's so little I know, that I'm longing to know Of the man that you were, a time long ago Please, Gazette There's so little you say, of the life you've known Why you keep to yourself, while you're always alone So dark, so dark indeed The secrets that you keep In my life, please forgive what I say You are loving and gentle and good But Papa, dear Papa In your eyes, I am still like that child who's lost in a wood No more words No more words, it's a time that is dead There are words that are better unheard, better unsaid In my life, I'm no longer a child And I yearn for the truth that you know Of the years, years ago You will learn Truth is given by God to us all in our time, in our turn In my life, she has burst like the music of angels The light of the sun And my life seems to stop as if something is over As something has scarcely begun Dear Ebony, you're the friend who has brought me here, thanks to you I'm at one with the gods and heaven is near And I soar through a world that is new, that is free Every word that he says is a dagger in me In my life, there's been no one like him anywhere Anywhere where he is If he asked, I'd be his In my life, there is someone who touches my life I sing near
