Frank Wildhorn - Jekyll And Hyde Concept Album - Lisa Carew Lyrics
[STRIDE]Lisa Carew, can this be you?What kind of man is this you've taken?Can you not see the kind of lifeThat this would be? You are mistaken!Time to awaken before it's too lateBefore you forever determine you fate![LISA]But Simon, you knew: I had to be freeWhat I choose to do is decided by me!Ever since my mother diedMy father, bless his darling heartHas treated me as though I'm still a young childMaybe his idea was just to wait until I grew upAnd then look at me and hope that I'd be herIt's easy to accept this from a fatherHe'd rather things remained the way they wereBut when it comes to marriage, I must pick whom I prefer!I am not the weak young thing you're seeking, SimonSomeone seventeen, obedient and sweetI am not the protégé to waste your time on, I'm complete!In Henry's eyes I see what I am meant to be[STRIDE]Lisa, listen to me![LISA]Simon, enough!There's nothing more!Don't be a bore!You have your answer!That's how things are!Will always be!You had your chance, Sir, with me![STRIDE]Someday you'll regret what you just said to me!Lisa...[LISA]We'll see, Sir!
