Aida! Do not shame yourself, and me, with such witless sentiment! Do not tell me this Egyptian grieves for the Nubian men executed, the women ravaged, and the children taken into slavery.At least I would not let myself believe anything else (after being reunited with Aida) I knew you would survive, that I had trained my daughter well.I would not have thought it possible that these Egyptians could give me one more reason to hate them!.I thought, one day, I could get back to Nubia, but if I can send my king home. For years I've been stealing from the palace.
You can't escape your genes - "Like Father, Like Son".Is this how the Gods reward the faithful through the ages? Forcing us to prove that all the hardest things we've done are easy.Simple really, isn't it? A word or two and then a lifetime of not knowing where, or how, or why, or when you'll think of me, or speak of me, and wonder what befell that someone you once loved so long ago so well. I'm here to tell you we can never meet again.Nubia will never die! Whether we are enslaved or whether we are far from our native soil, Nubia lives in our hearts.Strangers, lovers, husbands, wives: hard to know who's loving who. We all lead such elaborate lives, we don't know who's words are true.My nigh on impossible duty is clear: If I can rekindle my ancestor's dreams, It's enough. I know expectations are wild and almost beyond my fullfillment, but they won't hear a word of a doubt or see signs of a weakness.So don't expect any pity or understanding from this humble palace slave! -"Enchantment Passing Through" You are your own master, there are no shackles on you. If you don't like your fate, change it.What that man understands could be etched in a grain of sand.If I have to search for a hundred lifetimes, I will find you again, Aida.I've done wrong, I can't deny - "Like Father, Like Son".I'm no chip off any block, i wouldn't wish those words on anyone - "Like Father, Like Son".Sometimes in my darkest thoughts I wish I'd never learned what it is to be in love and have that love returned. You are all I'll ever want, but this - I am denied.I wish I could tell you this face to face, but there's never the time - never the place! So this letter will have to do I love you. I wish that our lives could be simple I don't want the world: only you.
When things get so complicated I stumble, at best, muddle through. I'm sorry for everything I've said and for anything I forgot to say too.And who'd have thought I'd throw my world away to be with someone I'm afraid will say "Not me.".Not me.We are what we want to be it's in ourselves to rise or fall.

Nothing is an accident, we are free to have it all.This should have been my time It's over.Are you trying to get me drunk, Radames? You know it's not necessary.They want a goddess and I'm just.human.So forget the inner me - observe the outer: I am what I wear and how I dress! - "My Strongest Suit" Manners? Charm? They're no way to impress. Perfection is such hard work to maintain, but worth the effort, don't you think?.Every story, new or ancient, bagatelle or work of art: all are tales of human failing all are tales of love at heart.How I Know You – Reprise ( commission)Ģ4E.
