Gate 37 Lyrics by David Byrne

Here Lies Love (Original Cast Recording)

2014

[ENSEMBLE]
Doo-doo-doot doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doot doo-doo doo-doo

[NINOY]
So hold me now
Cory and Beni
You know this thing
It's bigger than me
I've got to do this alone
So it'll draw less attention
But it hurts me so much
Now it's time I must leave

[NINOY AND ENSEMBLE]
Now you're all gathered here
Here at gate 37
Do you know what it means
To be saying goodbye?

[NINOY]
Do you know what it means
That this might be forever
I might be seeing you now
For the very last time

[ENSEMBLE]
Doo-doo-doot doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doot doo-doo doo-doo

[NINOY]
I can hear the announcement
As they call China Airlines
This bulletproof vest
It's the we can do

But the chances are slim
And if the truth had be told
'Cause if they aim for me head
It won't do me much good

[NINOY AND ENSEMBLE]
Now you're all gathered here
Here at gate 37
Do you know what it means
To be saying goodbye?

[NINOY]
Do you know what it means
That this might be forever
I might be seeing you now
For the very last time

[ENSEMBLE]
Doo-doo-doot doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doot doo-doo doo-doo

[NINOY AND ENSEMBLE]
Now you're all gathered here
Here at gate 37
