Finale
[ELIZABETH]
Did we make women freer
Or did we help enslave them?
[HELENA]
Perhaps they will forgive us
When they look at what we gave them
[HELENA, spoken]
For five decades, we have been the bitterest of enemies
And it has paid off nicely
Dangerous to think of as success
[ELIZABETH, spoken]
In politic I think, to enter arm in arm through the same door?
[HELENA, spoken]
You go your way, I go mine
[ELIZABETH, spoken]
Our little tête-à-tête
[HELENA, spoken]
It never happened
Our secret
[ELIZABETH & HELENA]
For fifty years we led the way
For fifty years beyond today
Who else will stand for beauty in the world?
