[CYRANO]
The way I feel is like falling stars
Diving into cold ocean waves
Words can only get me so far
They cannot describe the way that it hurts
'Cause every time I see you
I am overcome
I try to tell you
Tell you how much I need you
But I turn and run
[ROXANNE]
Your letters to me are like music
[CYRANO]
They're just a mask in a lonely coward's game
[ROXANNE]
What is it you're so afraid of losing?
[CYRANO]
That I might lose everything if I lose the pain
[ROXANNE & CYRANO]
'Cause every time I see you
I am overcome
It'd make him (you) laugh to think someone like me
Could keep someone like you
Look what I've become
[CYRANO]
You wore your hair down one time last spring in the chapel
Your lips painted red
I remember the day
[ROXANNE]
We hadn't met yet, how could you possibly remember that?
You watched me then? Why didn't you say something?
'Cause every time I see you
I am overcome
I try to tell you
Tell you how much I need you too
Look what I've become
Nothing feels real anymore when you're not around me
Even the sky looks like it's behind glass
Hearing your voice now, I can see everything clearly
I can see that you really are my love at last
[CYRANO]
But oh, Roxanne...
[ROXANNE]
I'm right here, love
[CYRANO]
Words fail me
[ROXANNE]
Please come to me
[CYRANO]
I try, but I can't
[ROXANNE]
This is real love
[CYRANO]
Dare to believe you'd have me
[ROXANNE]
I have no doubt
I know that you're the one now
[CYRANO]
You don't know anything
[ROXANNE]
I know that it's you
[CYRANO]
Roxanne, if this was true
[ROXANNE]
Just tell me what you need now
[CYRANO]
Then I'd need for nothing
[ROXANNE]
Just tell me what to do
