[Lied I – Verse 1: Fragile, Music Box Waltz]
The icy wind begins to blow
My heart is melting like the snow
I need you more than you can know
Don't ever let this feeling go
(I love you so… I love you so…)

[Lied I – Pre‑Chorus: Breathless, Clutching the Microphone]
You are my only destiny
The only face I want to see
Together for eternity
Just you and me…

[Refrain I – Cabaret Spotlight, Trembling]
Oh, mon amour, I beg you stay
The dark is coming for the day
My soul is tearing in the fray
Don't let them take it all away!
(No way! No way!)

[Lied II – Verse 2: Shadows Lengthen, Piano in Minor]
But now the fear begins to grow
A shadow rising from below
A silhouette of pain and woe
I hear the heavy footsteps slow…

[Freeze – Orchestra Cuts Out]
[Spoken Word: Thunderous Deep Voice, Echoed Through Tinny Cabaret Speakers]
“Dave! What is the meaning of this show?!”

[Bridge – Emotional Collapse, Strings Trembling]
[Emotion: Hysterical Crying]
Papa, no! Let us be!
Why can't you listen to my plea?

[Spoken Word: Vicious Yelling, Harsh Footlights]
“Silence! You bring shame to the family tree!
You come with me!”

[Sung: Screaming/Belting – Cabaret Band Crashes]
He's crushing up against my knee
I'm screaming for my liberty
This is the end of you and me
It's agony!

[Interlude – Dramatic Orchestral Hit, Red Stage Wash]
[Spoken Word: Deep Hateful Voice – Spotlight on the Father’s Silhouette]
“And you! Beast!
Stay away from my son!
You are done!
This is won!”

[Cry: Falsetto Wail – Performer Collapses to Knees]
Bjorn! What have I done?!

[Refrain II – Slower, Heavier, Like a Dying Carousel]
[Music: Tragic, Slow, Heavy Reverb]
Oh, mon amour, I fade away
My heart is turning into clay
I have no other words to say
Except to love you one more day…

[Finale – Outro: House Lights Dim, Audience Holds Breath]
[Sobbing]
He's dragging me…
I can't get free…
(Adieu… Adieu…)

[Prologue – Spoken, Soft German Accent] Meine Damen und Herren… Tonight… a little heart breaks on our tiny stage.
