Music: Elton John
Lyrics: Tim Rice
Book by Linda Woolverton, Robert Falls & David Henry Hwang
ELABORATE LIVES (Reprise)
AIDA
We all lead such elaborate lives
Wild ambitions in our sights
How an affair of the heart survives
Days apart and hurried nights
Seems quite unbelievable to me
I don't want to live like that
Seems quite unbelievable to me
I don't want to love like that
I just want our time to be
Slower and gentler, wiser, free
We all live in extravagant times
Playing games
we can't all win
Unintended emotional crimes
take some out take others in
Too many choices tear us apart
I don't want to live like that
Too many choices tear us apart
I don't want to love like that
I just want to keep your heart
May this confession be the start
I know you'll give me courage
to face what I must face
with all these complications
in another time and place
AIDA & RADAMES
We all lead such elaborate lives
We don't know whose words are true
An affair of the heart survives
All the pain the world can do
RADAMES
I'm so tired of all we're going through
I don't want to live like that
AIDA
I'm so tired of all we're going through
I don't want to love like that
I just want to be with you
Now and forever peaceful, true
ACT TWO
Scene Ten
THE INTERIOR OF THE TOMB
The tomb comes forward. GUARDS force AIDA and RADAMES into the tomb.
AIDA
It's so dark.
RADAMES
Give me your hand. I'm right here with you. There is another world waiting
for us, Aida. I can feel it. The way I always knew there was a world beyond
every bend in the Nile. Just waiting to be discovered.
AIDA
You will find me in that world?
RADAMES
If I have to search for a hundred life times, I will find you again, Aida.
