Original Broadway Cast - Woman - Sözleri

[GRANIA]


Woman I am born


What does "woman" mean?


Must my dreams face scorn


Held back and unseen





If I long for fire


Must it stay unreal?


Can I not desire?


Am I not to feel?





If I ache to taste


Am I not to try?


If my heart says sail


Why should I deny?


I have my dreams


I have made plans


I see horizons wide as a man's


Must I be nothing till I'm some man's wife?





Look at this face


Does it deceive?


Do I look made to milk and to weave?


I will be damned to Hell if that is my life!





[GRANIA] (spoken) Blasphemy--I know, forgive me! But I won't take it back! I won't!





[TIERNAN] (spoken) I understand you! Somehow I never pictured you knitting. 





[GRANIA]


I'm almost your age,


I'm your match in size,


I'm as skilled with swords


And equal in most eyes





But when you have a dream


And you're caught in its grip


You can climb aboard a ship


You can -


You can for you're a man!





You can reach toward that place


Where the earth meets the sky


Fight a battle be brave, be true


If you can do it, why not I?





I'm meant to fly


Sail unrestrained


Why is man free and woman chained?


Is that my epitaph before I die?





I should be free


Free to be Grace


So I can feel the wind on my face!


And when life beckons, I should go


Face out the storm, not stay below


Am I to be just woman? No! Not I!
