I Am Here

(Spoken) Who's there?
(Spoken) It's me, Marguerite.

I've told myself to stay away perhaps a hundred times a day
I've tried to shut my eyes
But still I see you everywhere, you won't disappear
Armand, it's happening so fast
I'm throwing caution to the wind
It seems so clear
I know now where I am at last
I am here
What happens now is yours to say
I am here
To take, or spurn, or turn away
It's absurd
And yet I'm not too proud to say
I will go, I will stay, say the word, I'll obey
Time was when they all came knocking at my door
Faceless men who knew my price and knew the score
Let the past be the past. Let it go
I'm standing here before your eyes
Standing here without a mask, without disguise
Look and see, Armand, I am here.

(Spoken) You're leaving?

I haven't slept since God knows when
Except to dream and dream again
But now my mind is clear
I was afraid of losing you, my head in a spin
I've waited all these years for you, for you to come
And now you're here, you've let me in
What else can matter now you're here?
From today...

I am here...
My life will never be the same
Who could say...
Always here...

A single kiss would light this flame?
You're to blame
We can both start again
Another world another day
You and I
There's got to be another way.

I've come to save my life
You've come to set me free
My knight in armour, I'll find shelter where you are
There's nothing more to fear.

From today, darling, I am here.
