Gustav! It's all right! It's me!
Gustav! Please, take him away.
How could you think I would
How could you think I wouldn't know?
I want the truth right now, if so!
you went off and left me alone.
But that's not all you did.
Ever since that other time
I wish, oh, I wish you'd have known
The secret my marriage forbade
What else could I have done?
Just give what I could give
And take what little I deserve.
And even he recoils in horror
Forgive me, I beg you, if you can
From out of ugliness such light,
from out of darkness such a flame.
In him my wrongness is made right,
And yet he loathes me just the same.
So let him shun me in disgust,
Let him flee this cursed face.
If I must hide from Him, I must,
Yet shall He be my saving grace.
For Christine, my Christine,
If it's true I've no reason to live,
then a boy shall have all I can give.
All I create on this earth
All that I'll never be worth
Ten long years, and he casts us aside
Ten whole years, this is how we repaid
and now what we've worked for
All our hopes were at last in our grasp,
all the dreams and the plans that
All of the bonds in between is now torn
All of the loam that we gave him was worn
if that bastard had never been a man!
