Live for the One I Love
Esmeralda
A million stars light
This beautiful night
This is not a night to die
Let me sing and dance
Beneath the sky
I have such love to give
To give
I want a chance to live
Live
For the one I love
Love
As no one has loved
Give
Asking nothing in return
Free
Free to find my way
Free to have my say
Free to see the day
Be
Like I used to be
Like a wild bird free
With all of life in me
Live
For the one I love
Love
As no one has loved
Give Asking nothing in return
Though this world tears us apart
We're still together in my heart
I want the world to hear my cry
And even if I have to die
Love will not die
Love will change the world
Live
For the one I love
Love
As no one has loved
Give Asking nothing in return
I'll love until love wears me away
I'll die and I know my love will stay
And I know my love will stay



The Age of The Cathedrals
Gringoire
This is a tale that takes its place
In Paris fair, this year of grace
Fourteen hundred eighty-two
A tale of lust, and love so true
We are the artists of the time
We dream in scupture, dream in rhyme
For you we bring our world alive
So something will survive
From nowhere came the age of the cathedrals
The old world began
A new unknown thousand years
For man just has to climb up where ths stars are
And live beyond life
Live in glass and live in stone
Stone after stone, day after day
From year to year, men made their way
Men had built with faith and love
These cathedrals rose above
We troubadours and poets sing
That love is all and everything
We promise you, all human kind
Tomorrow will be fine
From nowhere came the age of the cathedrals
The old world began
A new unknown thousand years
For man just has to climb up where ths stars are
And live beyond life
Live in glass and live in stone
From nowhere came the age of the cathedrals
The old world began
A new unknown thousand years
For man just has to climb up where ths stars are
And live beyond life
Live in glass and live in stone
But it is doom the age of the cathedrals
Barbarians wait
At the gates of Paris fair
Ah let them in, these pagans and these vandals
A wise man once said
In two thousand, this world ends
In two thousand, this world ends

The Refugees
Clopin
We are the strangers here
The refugees
The women and men
Without a home
Oh Notre Dame!
We come and ask of you
Asylum, asylum
We are
The strangers here
The refugees
The women
And men
Without a home
Oh Notre Dame!
We come and ask of you
Asylum, asylum
At Paris gates we stand
Ten thousand in our band
And one day soon we'll be
A million in this land
We wonder what you'll do
The day we ask of you
Asylum, asylum
We are
The strangers here
The refugees
The women
And men
Without a home
Oh Notre Dame!
We come and ask of you
Asylum, asylum
We are the down-and-out
Here at the city gates
And all of Paris waits
To see what we're about
The world will change someday
We'll make it work some way
When we have come to stay
With you
We are
The strangers here
The refugees
The women
And men
Without a home
We are
The strangers here
The refugees
The women
And men
Without a home
The refugees
Without a home
We are
The strangers here
The refugees
The women
And men
Without a home
We are
The strangers here
The refugees
We are
The strangers here
The refugees
The women and men
Without a home
We are the strangers here
The refugees
The women and men
Without a home
Oh Notre Dame!
We come and ask of you
Asylum, asylum
We are
The strangers here
The refugees
The women
And men
Without a home
Oh Notre Dame!
We come and ask of you
Asylum, asylum
Asylum, asylum

The Bohemienne Song
Esmeralda
Bohemienne
No one knows where my story begins
Bohemienne I was born on a road that bends
Bohemienne, bohemienne
Come tomorrow, I'll wander again
Bohemienne, bohemienne
Here's my fate in the lines of my hands
My mother told me tales of Spain
I think that's where she longed to be
Of mountain bandits she once sang
Andalusia memory
There in the mountains she was free
My mother, father all are gone
And I've made Paris be my home
I dream of oceans rolling on
They take my heart where I must come
Andalusia mountain home
Bohemienne
No one knows where my story begins
Bohemienne I was born on a road that bends
Bohemienne, bohemienne
Come tomorrow, I'll wander again
Bohemienne, bohemienne
Here's my fate in the lines of my hands
When I was a child in Provence
Barefoot in the hills I dance once
But the gypsy road is long
The road's so long
Every day I see a new chance
Maybe some road will lead from France
I will follow till I come home
Till I come home
Andalusia's streams
Run through my blood
Run through my day dreams
Andalusia's sky
When it calls me
I feel my heart fly
Bohemienne
No one knows where my story begins
Bohemienne I was born on a road that bends
Bohemienne, bohemienne
Come tomorrow, I'll wander again
Bohemienne, bohemienne
Here's my fate in the lines of my hands
Here's my fate in the lines of my hands

Belle
Quasimodo
Belle
Is the only word I know that suits her well
When she dances, oh the story she can tell
A free bird trying out her wings to fly away
And when I see her move, I see Hell to pay
She dances naked in my soul and sleep won't come
And it's no use to pray this prayers to Notre-Dame
Tell
Who'd be the first to raise his hand and throw a stone
I'd hang him high and laugh to see him die alone
Oh Lucifer
Please let me go beyond God's law
And run my fingers through her hair
Esmeralda
Frollo
Belle
There's a demon insider her who came from Hell
And he turned my eyes from God, and oh, I fell
He put the heat inside me I'm ashamed to tell
Without my God inside I'm just a burning shell
The sin of Eve she was in her I know so well
For want of her I know I'd give my soul to sell
Belle
The gypsy girl, is there a soul beneath her skin?
And does she bear that cross of all our human sin?
Oh Notre Dame
Please let me go beyond God's law
Open the door of love inside
Esmeralda
Phoebus
Belle
Even though her eyes seem to lead us to Hell
She may be more pure, more pure than words can tell
But when she dances feelings come no man can quell
Beneath her rainbow-colored dress there burns the well
My promised one, please let me one more time be untrue
Before in front of God and man,
I marry you
Who
Would be the man who'd turn from her to save his soul
To be with her I'd let the devil take me whole
Oh Fleur-de-Lys
I am a man who knows no law
I go to open up the rose
Esmeralda
Quasimodo, Frollo and Phoebus
She dances naked in my soul and sleep won't come
And it's no use to pray this prayers to Notre-Dame
Tell
Who'd be the first to raise his hand and throw a stone
I'd hang him high and laugh to see him die alone
Oh Lucifer
Please let me go beyond God's law
And run my fingers through her hair
Esmeralda

My Heart If You Will Swear
Fleur-de-Lys
You mount your horse so straight and fair
You look like you belong here
So strong and right and four square
No other man can compare
Or maybe you don't really care
Just look for pleasure out there
And always get your share
Is there a heart in you somewhere?
My heart is pure and so rare
If you are hurt I'll be there
We'll start again from nowhere
You'll have my heart if you will swear
You'll have my heart if you will swear
That you will hang
Esmeralda
I'm not a little girl now
I'll show you that I know how
I'll show you how I can be
You think that I am so pure
I tell you don't be so sure
I can be wild and free
Your words of love are hard to bear
Your promises are thin air
My heart is hard and I don't care
I'll leave you hanging out there
Unloose my belt, let down my hair,
Come take if you dare
Your love is all I want to swear
You'll have my heart if you will swear
You'll have my heart if you will swear
That you will hang
Esmeralda
You'll have my heart if you will swear
You'll have my heart if you will swear
That you will hang
Esmeralda
That you will hang
The Zingara

Torn apart
Phoebus
Torn apart
I am a man divided
Torn apart
I want two women's love
Two women want my love
I don't know how to cut
My heart in two
Torn apart
I am a man in pieces
Torn apart
I want two women's love
Two women want my love
I'm just glad
I have love enough for two
One for the day
The other for the night
One just for now
The other all my life
One for always
Until of the end of time
The other will soon find
My love won't stay
Torn apart
I am a man divided
Torn apart
I want two women's love
Two women want my love
And they'll just have to love
The man I am
Torn apart
I am a man in pieces
Torn apart
I want two women's love
Two women want my love
Is it my fault that I'm
A normal man
One's honey sweet
The other has a bite
One's heaven sent
The other rules the night
And to the one
I swear my love is true
And with the other one
I break the rules
Torn apart
I am a man divided
Torn apart
I want two women's love
Two women want my love
I don't know how to cut
My heart in two
Torn apart
I am a man in pieces
Torn apart
I want two women's love
Two women want my love
I'm just glad
I have love enough for two
Torn apart
Torn apart

Torn apart
I am a man divided
Torn apart
I want two women's love
Two women want my love
I don't know how to cut
My heart in two
Torn apart
Torn apart
Torn apart

The Bells
Quasimodo
The bells that I make ring
There are my loves, they love me well
I want to hear them sing
Loud, as they swing, my pretty bells
In thunder or hail
Or in wind or in rain
Their song will never fail
Singing through joy, singing through
Bells that ring where we're born
Bells that ring where we die
Bells that ring every day, every night, every hour
Bells that ring where we pray
Bells that ring where we cry
Bells that ring to wake us up when the sun lights the sky
For the feast of Rameaux
For the Quasimodo
For a bright Christmas Day and for the day of All Saints
For Annunciation
For the Resurection
For St-Valentine's day and for when Good Friday comes
Celebration they sing
All processions they ring
The most beautiful day (it) is the Feast of Our Lord
Days of years, days of Kings
Easter day, my bells ring
And on Pentecost Day they sing with bright tongues of flame
Confirmations they sing
And communions they ring
Bells that toll for our death, Dies Irae, Dies Illa
For Ascension they sing
For Assumption they ring
Bells that bring us
Hosanna and sing Hallelujah
The bells I hold most dear
Of the beauties I have here,
They are my Mary's three
All best friends to me
And my litlle Mary rings
When children die, she sets them free
And my big Mary rings
When sailors set forth on the sea
But my great Mary sings
When lovers exchange wedding rings
Then something in me always cries
Then something in me always cries
To see their happiness
To see their tenderness
When a woman will not give me a single caress
My bells marry and blend
And take wing on the wind
In the midst of the stard up in the vault of the sky
All the bells that I sound
Kyrie Eleison
Hosanna Allelujah Dies Irae, Dies Illa
Bells that mourn with the sad
Bells that laugh with the glad
All these bells that I have never not once rung out for me
The bells that I make ring
They are my loves, such joy they give
I hope that they will sing
If Esmeralda does still live
To tell the world that Quasimodo loves Esmeralda

The Pagan Ave Maria
Esmeralda
Ave Maria
Please pardon me
Of in your house
I have come stealing
Ave Maria
No one ever taught me
About kneeling
Ave Maria
Please will you keep me
From the misery, madness, and fools
Who rule this evil world?
Ave Maria
I'm a stranger and you're my last recourse
Ave Maria
Please can't you hear me
Please take me down all these walls between us
We all should be as one
Ave Maria
Please watch over my life night and day
Ave Maria
Oh ! Please protect me
Please guard me and my love now I pray
Ave Maria

Your love will kill me
Frollo
I feel a wave of passion
Move through my heart with such pain
I have no time to reason
So I just let passion reign
I let go so easily
On a night as warm as sin
Midnight swimmer, midnight sea
I will not come back again
Your love will kill me
Your love will kill me
And you will bear my curse
As long as my life will be
Your love will kill me
Your love will kill me
And I saw it would be
When I looked at you
When you look at me
Your love will kill me
Your love will kill me
Your love will kill me
Your love will kill me
My sin and my obession
Crazy desire you bring
I know there's no salvation
I see our bodies burning
Your gypsy dreams all haunt me
I live to see your dances
Please raise your eyes and want me
Please give me all the chances
Your love will kill me
Your love will kill me
And I will bear my curse
As long as my life will be
Your love will kill me
Your love will kill me
And I saw it would be
When I looked at you
When you look at me
Your love will kill me
Your love will kill me
Your love will kill me
Your love will kill me
You brought the spring time to fill
My heart in its winter chill
I lost my strength and my will
And now my tears start to spill
I never knew such desire
Just looking into your eyes
And now the soul in me cries
And now the night is on fire
Your love will kill me
Your love will kill me
And I will bear my curse
As long as my life will be
Your love will kill me
Your love will kill me
And I saw it would be
When I looked at you
When you look at me
Your love will kill me
Your love will kill me
Your love will kill me
Your love will kill me
Your love will kill me
Your love will kill me
Your love will kill me
Gringoire
The great bells do not play
In Notre-Dame today
Quasimodo hides up above
Quasimodo is sick with love
Frollo
The bells have lost their voice
For three days by choice
Quasimodo is sad
Quasimodo is going mad
Gringoire and Frollo
Quasimodo dies for love

Moon
Gringoire
Moon
You who shine your light
Bright
On the Paris night
See How a man
Suffers all for love
Clear
Solitary star
So far
When the day returns
Please hear
Up there so high
The cry of the world
Please hear the cry
Of a man in pain
For whom
All those million stars
Don't shine
Like those shining eyes
He loves
With a mortal love
Moon
Moon
Please don't disappear
Before
You have time to hear
Just hear
How cries the heart
Of the human beast
Please hear the cry
Quasimodo cries
He cries
For his heart is full
His voice
Over mountain flies
So high
That I know it flies to you
Moon
See
How this man aspires
To join
His poor voice with angels
Moon
You who shine your light
For
Poets as they write
How a man
Suffers for love
For love

God you made the world all wrong
Quasimodo
God you made the world all wrong
I'm so ugly - she's so fine
I would love her my life long
But she never would be mine
No he owns her heart and soul
Without giving her a thing
And she thinks he'll make her whole
With the love she thinks he'll bring
She will lie down at his touch
And believe his lies with pride
It's his face she loves so much
She can't see what's deep inside
God you made the world all wrong
He's so rich and I'm so poor
He will make her life a song
He will give her nothing more
God you made the world all wrong
Let her have her shining knight
Beauty to the rich belongs
Not to us outside the light
I am just a ugly stain
That the world just wants to hide
God you gave me so much pain
Were you ever on my side?
God you made the world all wrong
I have nothing, he has all
But I'll tell her all along
He won't be there if she falls
He was born to silk and lace
To make love and to make war
I was born without a face
God what did you make me for?
Tell me what side
God is on Those whose silver buys the Host?
Or those who pray to God alone
Day and night, this Holy Ghost ?
Can this Jesus we adore
Save this blessings only for
Those three Kings of gold and myrrh
And leave the shepherds at the door ?
God you made the world so wrong
I'm so ugly, she's so fine
I will love her my life long
But she never will be mine

I'm a priest
Frollo
I was a happy man until I saw your face
I hid my need away in some dark secret place
All that power of sex I kept down and I never let go
I had only one design the truth of God and man to know
Oh I'm priest and I love this girl
I love with a love that destroys my world
Against wind and the tide I could stand any shock
Straight and proud like Notre-Dame upon her rock
Then you stole in my heart and awakened desire
I dream I'm inside you and I wake up on fire
Oh I'm priest and I love this girl
I love with a love that destroys my world
I let no woman near, I suffered for God's care
In the heart of the night I saw the lightning flare
I looked out from my room, distracted from my prayer
The day had just begun, and you were standing there
Oh I'm priest and I love this girl
I love with a love that destroys my world
Oh I'm priest and I love this girl
Heal me with your touch - or hurt me once again
Make me suffer for my sin
Just lead me on to Hell, and I'll deny my Christ
For Hell, with you, is Paradise
Oh I'm priest and I love this girl
I love with a love that destroys my world
Oh I'm priest and I love this girl
This girl
The birds they put in cages
Esmeralda
Will the birds they put in cages
Ever ride upon the wind?
Will the children life outrages
Ever learn to love again?
I lived my life like a swallow
I arrived here with the springtime
All the little streets I'd follow
All the gypsy song were mine
Where's my friend who rings the church bells?
Where are you my Quasimodo?
They will hang me as the light swells
You can break these bars I know
Quasimodo
Esmeralda, have you left me?
Do you hide yourself away?
I have counted every hour
I have missed you every day
Have you left upon a journey
With your handsome, shining soldier
With no marriage, taking love free
Like the gypsy girl you are?
Have you died out in the small streets
With no prayer to get to Heaven?
There's a priest who counts your heartbeats
If he comes near, you must run
Esmeralda
You remember at the street fair
Quasimodo
When they hurt me on the great wheel
Esmeralda
When you begged, I gave you water
Quasimodo
At your feet I had to kneel
Quasimodo and Esmeralda
On that day our friendship started
It will last as long as we live
Once together never parted
All we have to give we'll give
Will the birds they put in cages
Ever ride upon the wind?
Will the children life outrages
Ever learn to love again?

Cast away
Clopin
Cast away
Souls at bay
It's our dream
They betray
Now they say
We can't stay
Prayers we pray
Lost today
Put the shade
Of your skin
With the shade
Of my skin
Put the song
That you sing
With the dance
That I bring
Refugees
Downward bound
Fill the streets
Of your town
Can't we make a world
To which everyone belongs?
Can't we make a world
Without fears,
Without frontiers?
We're called names
We're blamed
We're kept down
We are shamed
In the night
Torture comes
Try to speak
Without tongues
My homeland
I hold here
In my heart
Every near
In your land
I find tears
Words that hurt
Things to fear
In my heart
Summer dies
From your gray
Winter Skies
Can't we make a world
To which everyone belongs?
Can't we make a world
Without fears,
Without frontiers?
Cast away
Souls at bay
It's our dream
They betray
Now they say
We can't stay
Prayers we pray
Lost today
Cast away
Cast away

Dance my Esmeralda
Quasimodo
When the years have all come and gone
They'll find beneath the ground
Our bodies joined as one
Showing how we were bound
How much Quasimodo once loved
Esmeralda the gypsy girl
How he was marked by God above
Just to help him to bear his cross
Just to help him to bear his cross
Eat my body and drink my blood
Vultures of Montfaucon
So that death more than his life could
Join our two names as one
Let my poor soul just fly away
From the miseries of this earth
Let my love find the light of day
In the light of the universe
In the light of the universe
Dance my Esmeralda
Sing my Esmeralda
Dance just one more time for me
You'll know I'll die for love of you
Dance my Esmeralda
Sing my Esmeralda
Please let my poor soul fly free
It is not death to die for you
Dance my Esmeralda
Sing my Esmeralda
Please come sleep here in my arms
You'll know I'll die for love of you
Dance my Esmeralda
Sing my Esmeralda
Beyond, and beyond and beyond
It is not death to die for you
Dance my Esmeralda
Sing my Esmeralda
Please let my poor soul fly free
It is not death to die for you
