Satine (Nicole):

I´m dying

I was a fool to believe

A fool to believe

It all ends today

Yes it all ends today

Zidler (Jim):

Send Christian away

Only you can save him

Satine:

He´ll fight for me

Zidler:

Yes, unless he believes you don´t love him

Satine:

What?

Zidler

You´re a great actress Satine

Make him believe you don´t love him

Satine:

No!

Zidler:

Use your talent to save him

Hurt him, hurt him to save him

There is no other way

The show must go on, Satine

We´re creatures of the underworld

We can´t afford to love

Satine:

Today´s the day when dreaming ends

[Zidler]

Another hero

Another mindless crime

Behind the curtain

in the pantomime

On and on

Does anybody know

What we are living for?

Whatever happens

We live it all to chance

Another heartache

Another failed romance

On and on

Does anybody know

What we are living for?

The show must go on (2x)

Outside, the dawn is breaking

On the stage

That holds our final destiny

[Chorus]

The show must go on (2x)

[Satine]

Inside, my heart is breaking

My makeup may be flaking

But my smile

still stays on

[Chorus]

The show must go on (2x)

[Satine]

I'll top the bill

I'll overkill

I have to find the will to carry

On with the

On with the

On with the show

[Zidler]

On with the show...

On with the show...

[Zidler and Satine]

The show must go on
