No Matter What Happens

(앨범: Yentl - 1983)

[Not wanting to confuse Hadass or herself anylonger, Yentl decides to end her masquerade.]

Look at how she looks at me,
I can never look at her that way...
Full of all the feelings and the soft
Unspoken words that lovers say...
In all the words, in all the books
I wish there were a way to say that
What she's taught me
Isn't written anywhere
And I'm supposed to be the one
Who's wise...
One thing is certain,
I can never be what she
Expects of me...

I've wanted the shadows,
I don't anymore.
No matter what happens,
I won't anymore
I've run from the sunlight
Afraid it saw too much.
The moon had the one light
I bathed in
I walked in.
I held in my feelings
And closed every door.
No matter what happen.
I can't anymore.
There's someone who must hear
The words I've never spoken.
Tonight if he were here
My silence would be broken.
I need him to touch me
To know the love that's in my heart
The same heart that tells me
To see myself
To free myself
To be myself at last!
For too many mornings
The curtains were drawn.
It's time they were opened
To welcome the dawn.
A voice deep inside
Is getting stronger,
I can't keep it quiet any longer.
No matter what happens,
It can't be the same anymore...
I promise it won't be the same
Anymore!
