Lyrics

(MARC ANTONY)
WHEN PREPARING WEAPONS OF WAR,
WHILE I’M PLANNING THE STRATEGY TO SEIZE THE DAY,
THE VERY MOMENT BEFORE WE COMMENCE THE FORAY,
I RECALL EVERY BATTLE BEFORE.

WHEN PREPARING WEAPONS OF WAR,
AS I SHARPEN MY SWORD AND HOLD IT IN MY HAND,
KNOWING THE FORCE AND THE POWER IT HAS TO KILL ANY MAN,
I UNDERSTAND,
IF FOR SOME REASON THE ENEMY I CAN’T WITHSTAND,
THE VERY WEAPON I HOLD HE MAY COMMAND.

(CLEOPATRA)
OH I WISH THAT I COULD FEEL IT:
THE THRILL, JUST FOR AN INSTANT,
IT MUST BE SO TREMENDOUS,
TO BE SO CLOSE TO DANGER,
AND YET SO CLOSE TO GLORY,
THE THRILL OF IT ALL!

(MARC ANTONY)
WHEN I LOOK IN A WOMAN’S EYES,
WHILE I’M STEALING HER HEART I KNOW IT CAN’T BE WRONG.
BECAUSE IN LOVE OR IN WAR ONE HAS GOT TO BE STRONG.
SO I SMILE AND I SING A LOVE SONG.
HOW I LOVE YOU

WHEN I LOOK IN A WOMAN’S EYES,
SHARING INTIMATE SECRETS WHILE THE MOONLIGHT SHINES,
HELD IN A PASSIONATE WARM EMBRACE OF NATURE’S DESIGN,
WE INTERTWINE.
IF FOR SOME REASON MY FEELINGS I CAN NOT CONFINE,
I KNOW THE HEART THAT IS STOLEN MAY BE MINE.
