RENT-ed out

So i watched the movie tonight. Boy, i'll be getting this RENT soundtrack LSS for a while... :-) The movie was pretty good, considering they retained most of the original cast (except two), plus the movement was more transitional (i think anyway) because visually they really worked it --- but i guess there is something magical about watching it onstage (i saw the Manila production of RENT). Wish they still ran it on Broadway when i was in NY (that would have been grand...) Anyhoo, i still love it! :-)

Will I lose my dignity
will someone care
will i wake tomorrow
from this nightmare

I think they meant it
When they said you can't buy love
Now I know you can rent it
A new lease you are, my love,
On life - all my life
I've longed to discover
Something as true as this is


So with a thousand sweet kisses If you're cold
I'll cover you And you're lonely With a thousand sweet kisses
I'll cover you You've got one nickel only
With a thousand sweet kisses I'll cover you

When you're worn out and tired With a thousand sweet kisses
I'll cover you When your heart has expired Oh lover i'll cover you...

The heart may freeze or it can burn
The pain will ease if I can learn
There is no future
There is no past
I live this moment as my last
There's only us
There's only this
Forget regret
Or life is yours to miss
No other road
No other way
No day but today
