The Revelation Lyrics by Peter Cousens, Hinton Battle

The Complete Recording of Boublil and Schönberg’s Miss Saigon

0

[CHRIS]
John, you were great
Can I see you alone?
I gotta know what you meant on the phone
What is this news you received you could only tell me?
[JOHN]
A lot of groups use my Bangkok staff
To process problems on their behalf
We got this in from the embassy
It's not easy to tell you, it's best that you see
[CHRIS, spoken]
Kim, it's about Kim, isn't it?
[CHRIS]
Only you know how hard I had tried to get word
Tell me first, nothing else, tell me:
Did she survive?
[JOHN]
You must read the report, Chris, but yes
She's alive
[CHRIS]
You don't know, John, these nightmares, the things that I've seen
I have seen her face burned, seen her shot with my gun
I have chased her through streets and heard nothing but screams
What's wrong? Come on, there is still something more
[JOHN]
She has a child
You have a son
[CHRIS]
You won't believe me but I dreamed this, John
It's in the nightmare when I see Saigon
Jesus, John, I am married
Is this story for real?
[JOHN]
I'm only telling you what I received
But our reports can usually be believed
Kim's a bar-girl in Bangkok
Pal, I know how you feel
[CHRIS]
It's too late
I have a whole new life
I have a wife I love
She can't just disappear
[JOHN]
Listen, guy
I know the shock you've had
It isn't always bad
There are solutions here
[CHRIS]
Oh John, I never told her
My wife, how can I tell her?
A child, what do I do?
I shattered Kim
Now Ellen too
[JOHN & CHRIS]
I have learned the best thing for a couple to do (It's time to tell her)
You should both come to Bangkok
(I have to tell her) I mean Ellen too
[CHRIS]
Us both?
[JOHN]
You both should go
[ELLEN, spoken]
Hey guys, come on
[CHRIS]
But first
First Ellen has to know
