Musicals - Chess - Where I Want To Be Lyrics

Align:    
  • [Verse 1]
  • Anatoly:
  • Who needs a dream?
  • Who needs ambition?
  • Who'd be the fool
  • In my position?
  • Once I had dreams,
  • Now they're obsessions.
  • Hopes became needs--
  • Lovers possessions.
  • [Verse 2]
  • Then they move in
  • Oh so discreetly,
  • Slowly at first--
  • Smiling too sweetly.
  • I opened doors
  • They walked right through them.
  • Called me their friend--
  • I hardly knew them.
  • [Chorus]
  • Now I'm
  • Where I want to be,
  • And who I want to be,
  • And doing what I
  • Always said I would,
  • And yet I feel
  • I haven't won at all.
  • Running for my life,
  • And never looking back
  • In case there's someone
  • Right behind to shoot me down
  • And say he always knew I'd fall.
  • When the crazy wheel
  • Slows down,
  • Where will I be?
  • Back where I started.
  • [Verse 3]
  • Don't get me wrong,
  • I'm not complaining.
  • Times have been good--
  • Fast, entertaining.
  • But what's the point
  • If I'm concealing
  • Not only love,
  • All other feeling?
  • [Chorus]
  • Now I'm
  • Where I want to be,
  • And who I want to be,
  • And doing what I
  • Always said I would,
  • And yet I feel
  • I haven't won at all.
  • I'm running for my life,
  • And never looking back
  • In case there's someone
  • Right behind to shoot me down
  • And say he always knew I'd fall.
  • When the crazy wheel
  • Slows down,
  • Where will I be?
  • Back where I started.
  • [Outro]
  • Viigand: [Spoken]
  • Comrade, Molokov tells me you want to play chess.
  • Anatoly: [Spoken]
  • Go to hell.
