- Miss Saigon Soundtrack - Kim’s Nightmare Lyrics
- Uploaded by LOVE4LYRICS at Pastebin.com
- (as the room darkens, the ghost of THUY appears)
- THUY
- did you think I'd gone away
- this is the face you saw that day
- staring at you with open eyes
- you're safe in the daylight
- but in the dark I rise
- I'm the crime that you hid
- for you want yo forget that you killed, but you did!
- you will never be free
- not as long as there's me
- did you think you would escape the judgement that was planned?
- did you think you would escape the truth's avenging hand
- just because you have escaped the bound'ries of your land
- I'm here! I'm here! I'm never dead
- I'm here! I am the guilt inside your head
- (KIM finds herself back in Saigon, April 1975)
- you think your marine's not like other men
- (CHRIS appears)
- he betrayed you once
- and he will again
- think about that night
- where was he back then
- CHRIS
- I'm getting you out!
- CAPTAIN SCHULTZ
- sorry, sergeant, as things degenerate
- all I'm giving her is her emigration papers
- without the wait, sign here
- CHRIS
- that's not good enough. . .
- CAPTAIN SCHULTZ
- this will get her on board the carrier
- you're declaring that you will marry her
- when you get back to the states, sign here
- (a solider brings in KIM)
- SOLDIERS
- by order of the old man
- the embassy will close according to plan
- CAPTAIN SCHULTZ
- I'll stretch a couple rules to issue her pass
- that's it, you're ready. nice ass. who's next?
- SOLDIERS
- by order of the old man
- we're processing the gooks as fast as we can
- CAPTAIN SCHULTZ
- I mean Vietnamese, hey don't get me wrong
- can't leave these looks for the Cong - right?
- (The scene changes to the room of CHRIS and KIM)
- CHRIS
- Christ, I am due at the embassy

- CHRIS
- look I'm leaving my gun
- we got time
- stay and pack
- KIM
- well I will do whatever you say
- CHRIS
- we'll get plenty of word when the VC attack
- I want you in that bed waiting when I get back

- the word is, we must be out by dawn
- CHRIS
- but my girl is out there!
- REEVES

- (CHRIS is forced inside the Embassy, whose doors are then barricaded.
- The VIETNAMESE are now yelling through the Embassy gates.)
- ONE VIETNAMESE

- take my children!
- ANOTHER
- I have a letter, look!

- A VIETNAMESE
- out of my way, if that's all that you've got!
- CROWD

- (inside the compound: MARINES guard the roof helipad.)
- CHRIS
- let me go, John, I can't leave her
- why in the world should I be saved instead of her?
- CROWD
- they'll kill who they find here!
- don't leave us behind here!
- JOHN
- it's not you, it's the war that's cruel
- and if some dreams get smashed, perhaps it's best they were
- CROWD and KIM
- there is no one to find here!
- they have left us behind here!
- JOHN
- wake up, my friend, your mercy trip has failed
- there's nothing you can do, that ship has sailed
- she's not the only one we'll have betrayed
- CROWD
- get to the roof, or else we are betrayed!
- (the CROWD tries to batter down the fences.)
- KIM
- (in the yard)
- oh, Chris
- I still believe
- the heart of you
- is here with me
- my heart, against all odds
- holds still
- (on the Embassy roof, the last helicopter lands. CHRIS runs up and down
- the wall, shouting for KIM. Finally he is forced to board the helicopter,
- which takes off. The nightmare passes. KIM is in her little room with
- TAM.)
- (KIM takes out her wedding dress and puts it on)
- KIM
- you are sunlight and I moon
- joined by the gods of fortune
- midnight and high noon
- that's what we are
- how in one night have we come so far
- outside, day starts to dawn
- one long night time is gone
- I feel you near
- I cry no more
- I know you're here
- I reach your door
- and our love is reborn!
- bright'ning the sky
- with the flame
- of love
- made of sunlight
- moonlight
- ENGINEER
- Kim! Kim! Chris isat this hotel! Go quickly!
- KIM
- take care of Tam!
- (KIM runs through the city of Bangkok to CHRIS'S hotel, as CHRIS and JOHN travel throughout the city to find her.)
