I Should Tell You

(album: Rent (Original Broadway Cast Recording) - 1996)

[ROGER:]
I should tell you, I'm disaster
I forget how to begin it

[MIMI:]
Let's just make this part go faster
I have yet to be in it
I should tell you

[ROGER:]
I should tell you

[MIMI:]
I should tell you

[ROGER:]
I should tell you

[MIMI:]
I should tell I blew the candle out
Just to get back in

[ROGER:]
I'd forgotten how to smile
Until your candle burned my skin

[MIMI:]
I should tell you

[ROGER:]
I should tell you

[MIMI:]
I should tell you

[BOTH:]
I should tell...

Well, here we go
Now we...

[MIMI:]
Oh no

[ROGER:]
I know this something is...here goes

[MIMI:]
Here goes

[ROGER:]
Guess so, it's starting to, who knows?

[MIMI:]
Who knows?

[BOTH:]
Who knows where?
Who goes there?
Who knows?
Here goes...

Trusting desire, starting to learn
Walking through fire without a burn
Clinging a shoulder a leap begins
Stinging and older, asleep on pins
So here we go
Now we...

[ROGER:]
Oh no

[MIMI:]
I know

[ROGER:]
Oh no

[BOTH:]
Who knows where?
Who goes there?
Here goes, here goes
Here goes, here goes
Here goes, here goes
