Friar
Love can bring you to madnessRomeo
But what man would settle for less?Friar
God is where my heart liesJuliet
All of love lives in his eyesFriar
Love's a joy that you sufferRomeo
What's the use of life without her?Friar
Love's a sea that drowns youJuliet
Love's the hope that has found youRomeo
Love is her, in her splendor
And I'll make our lives a wonder
With your helpJuliet
Bind our names as oneBoth
Let whatever will come
Come for loveFriar
Love's a tempest inside usJuliet
Love's the north star that guides usRomeo
In the night, it calls usBoth
Love's the flame of life in all of usFriar
One that fadesRomeo
Your heart belongs to God
Mine belongs to Juliet
If loving has its price
Tell me, Friar, my debt!
I ask you, father, pleaseBoth
On my knees I implore
To marry us today
Put an end to this warIt's time now to decide
What you're going to do
Like lambs among the wolves
Our time is nearly throughRomeo
I long so much to lie
With Juliet as my bride
And hear the sweet lark's song
In the dark by my sideBoth
Please, we need youThe Friar hesitates, then beckons him to the altar. Romeo comes and kneels; the Friar gives him communion.
Chorus
For in love, you gain ever
In its moment, forever
Beyond life
If our God above
Grant us what we've dreamed of
Love will beFriar, Romeo, Juliet
Let it be...!Reprise
Friar
If through love, there is true life
Then there's hope for a new life
Oh, Lord command
We can change our fate
Break the chains of hate, and
We'll be free...
