Artist Info:
hello my fav song is Another day from the movie rent<br />
heres the lyrics<br />
<br />
ROGER<br />
Who do you think you are?<br />
Barging in on me and my guitar<br />
Little girl -- hey<br />
The door is that way<br />
You better go you know<br />
The fire's out anyway<br />
Take your powder -- take your candle<br />
Your sweet whisper<br />
I just can't handle<br />
Well take your hair in the moonlight<br />
Your brown eyes -- goodbye, goodnight<br />
I should tell you I should tell you<br />
I should tell you I should -- no!<br />
Another time -- another place<br />
Our temperature would climb<br />
There'd be a long embrace<br />
We'd do another dance<br />
It'd be another play<br />
Looking for romance?<br />
Come back another day<br />
Another day<br />
<br />
MIMI<br />
The heart may freeze or it can burn<br />
The pain will ease if I can learn<br />
There is no future<br />
There is no past<br />
I live this moment as my last<br />
There's only us<br />
There's only this<br />
Forget regret<br />
Or life is yours to miss<br />
No other road<br />
No other way<br />
No day but today<br />
<br />
ROGER<br />
Excuse me if I'm off track<br />
But if you're so wise<br />
Then tell me -- why do you need smack?<br />
Take your needle<br />
Take your fancy prayer<br />
And don't forget<br />
Get the moonlight out of your hair<br />
Long ago -- you might've lit up my heart<br />
But the fire's dead -- ain't never ever gonna start<br />
Another time -- another place<br />
The words would only rhyme<br />
We'd be in outer space<br />
It'd be another song<br />
We'd sing another way<br />
You wanna prove me wrong?<br />
Come back another day<br />
Another day<br />
<br />
MIMI<br />
There's only yes<br />
Only tonight<br />
We must let go<br />
To know what's right<br />
No other course<br />
No other way<br />
No day but today<br />
(Lights slowly fade up on the Life Support group.)<br />
<br />
MIMI & OTHERS<br />
I can't control<br />
My destiny<br />
I trust my soul<br />
My only goal is just<br />
To be<br />
There's only now<br />
There's only here<br />
Give in to love<br />
Or live in fear<br />
No other path<br />
No other way<br />
No day but today...<br />
<br />
ROGER<br />
Control your temper<br />
She doesn't see<br />
Who says that there's a soul?<br />
Just let me be...<br />
Who do you think you are?<br />
Barging in on me and my guitar<br />
Little girl, hey<br />
The door is that way<br />
The fire's out anyway<br />
<br />
ALL<br />
No day but today<br />
No day but today<br />
No day but today<br />
No day but today<br />
No day but today<br />
<br />
ROGER<br />
Take your powder; take your candle<br />
Take your brown eyes, your pretty smile, your silhouette<br />
Another time, another place<br />
Another rhyme, a warm embrace<br />
Another dance, another way<br />
Another chance, another day<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
This is another song from rent<br />
<br />
LIGHT MY CANDLE<br />
<br />
<br />
What'd you forget?<br />
<br />
[MIMI enters, holding a candle and looking for a match;]<br />
[her electricity is down, too.]<br />
<br />
[MIMI]<br />
<br />
Got a light?<br />
<br />
[ROGER]<br />
<br />
I know you? -- You're --<br />
You're shivering<br />
<br />
[MIMI]<br />
<br />
It's nothing<br />
They turned off my heat<br />
And I'm just a little<br />
Weak on my feet<br />
Would you light my candle?<br />
What are you staring at?<br />
<br />
[ROGER]<br />
<br />
Nothing<br />
Your hair in the moonlight<br />
You look familiar<br />
[He lights her candle. MIMI starts to leave, but stumbles.]<br />
Can you make it?<br />
<br />
[MIMI]<br />
<br />
Just haven't eaten much today<br />
At least the room stopped spinning.<br />
Anyway. What?<br />
<br />
[ROGER]<br />
<br />
Nothing<br />
Your smile reminded me of --<br />
<br />
[MIMI]<br />
<br />
I always remind people of -- who is she?<br />
<br />
[ROGER]<br />
<br />
She died. Her name was April<br />
<br />
[MIMI discreetly blows out the candle.]<br />
<br />
[MIMI]<br />
<br />
It's out again<br />
Sorry about your friend<br />
Would you light my candle?<br />
<br />
[ROGER lights the candle. They linger, awkwardly.]<br />
<br />
[ROGER]<br />
<br />
Well --<br />
<br />
[MIMI]<br />
<br />
Yeah. Ow!<br />
<br />
[ROGER]<br />
<br />
Oh, the wax -- it's --<br />
<br />
[MIMI]<br />
<br />
Dripping! I like it -- between my --<br />
<br />
[ROGER]<br />
<br />
Fingers. I figured...<br />
Oh, well. Goodnight.<br />
<br />
[MIMI exits. ROGER heads back toward his guitar on the table.]<br />
[There is another knock, which he answers.]<br />
<br />
It blew out again?<br />
<br />
[MIMI]<br />
<br />
No -- I think that I dropped my stash<br />
<br />
[ROGER]<br />
<br />
I know I've seen you out and about<br />
When I used to go out<br />
Your candle's out<br />
<br />
[MIMI]<br />
<br />
I'm illin' --<br />
I had it when I walked in the door<br />
It was pure -- <br />
Is it on the floor?<br />
<br />
[ROGER]<br />
<br />
The floor?<br />
<br />
[MIMI gets down on all fours and starts searching]<br />
[the floor for her stash. She lookss back at ROGER,]<br />
[who is staring at her again.]<br />
<br />
[MIMI]<br />
<br />
They say I have the best ass below 14th street<br />
Is it true?<br />
<br />
[ROGER]<br />
<br />
What?<br />
<br />
[MIMI]<br />
<br />
You're staring again.<br />
<br />
[ROGER]<br />
<br />
Oh no.<br />
I mean you do -- have a nice --<br />
I mean -- You look familiar<br />
<br />
[MIMI]<br />
<br />
Like your dead girlfriend?<br />
<br />
[ROGER]<br />
<br />
Only when you smile.<br />
But I'm sure I've seen you somewhere else --<br />
<br />
[MIMI]<br />
<br />
Do you go to the Cat Scratch Club?<br />
That's where I work - I dance - help me look<br />
<br />
[ROGER]<br />
<br />
Yes!<br />
They used to tie you up --<br />
<br />
[MIMI]<br />
<br />
It's a living<br />
<br />
[MIMI douses the flame again.]<br />
<br />
[ROGER]<br />
<br />
I didn't recognize you<br />
Without the handcuffs<br />
<br />
[MIMI]<br />
<br />
We could light the candle<br />
Oh won't you light the candle?<br />
<br />
[ROGER lights it again.]<br />
<br />
[ROGER]<br />
<br />
Why don't you forget that stuff<br />
You look like you're sixteen<br />
<br />
[MIMI]<br />
<br />
I'm nineteen -- but I'm old for my age<br />
I'm just born to be bad<br />
<br />
[ROGER]<br />
<br />
I once was born to be bad<br />
I used to shiver like that<br />
<br />
[MIMI]<br />
<br />
I have no heat -- I told you<br />
<br />
[ROGER]<br />
<br />
I used to sweat<br />
<br />
[MIMI]<br />
<br />
I got a cold<br />
<br />
[ROGER]<br />
<br />
Uh huh<br />
I used to be a junkie<br />
<br />
[MIMI]<br />
<br />
But now and then I like to --<br />
<br />
[ROGER]<br />
<br />
Uh huh<br />
<br />
[MIMI]<br />
<br />
Feel good<br />
<br />
[ROGER]<br />
<br />
Here it -- um --<br />
<br />
[ROGER stoops and picks up a small object: MIMI's stash.]<br />
<br />
[MIMI]<br />
<br />
What's that?<br />
<br />
[ROGER]<br />
<br />
It's a candy bar wrapper<br />
<br />
[ROGER puts it behind his back and into his pocket.]<br />
<br />
[MIMI]<br />
<br />
We could light the candle<br />
<br />
[ROGER discreetly blows out the candle.]<br />
<br />
[MIMI]<br />
<br />
What'd you do with my candle?<br />
<br />
[ROGER]<br />
<br />
That was my last match<br />
<br />
[MIMI]<br />
<br />
Our eyes'll adjust, thank God for the moon<br />
<br />
[ROGER]<br />
<br />
Maybe it's not the moon at all<br />
I hear Spike Lee's shooting down the street<br />
<br />
[MIMI]<br />
<br />
Bah humbug ... Bah humbug<br />
<br />
[MIMI places her hand under his, pretending to do it by accident.]<br />
<br />
[ROGER]<br />
<br />
Cold hands<br />
<br />
[MIMI]<br />
<br />
Yours too.<br />
Big. Like my father's<br />
You wanna dance?<br />
<br />
[ROGER]<br />
<br />
With you?<br />
<br />
[MIMI]<br />
<br />
No -- with my father<br />
<br />
[ROGER]<br />
<br />
I'm Roger<br />
<br />
[MIMI]<br />
<br />
They call me<br />
They call me Mimi<br />
<br />
<br />
(PETS) <br />
