Leslie Bricusse – Jekyll And Hyde Concept Album - Confrontation lyrics

JEKYLL
It's over now, I know inside
No one will ever know
The sorry tale of Edward Hyde
And those who died
No one must ever know
They'd only see the tragedy
They'd not see my intent
The shadow of Hyde's evil
Will forever kill
The good that I had meant

Am I a good man?
Am I a mad man?
It's such a fine line
Between a good man and a...

HYDE
Do you really think
That I would ever let you go?
Do you think I'd ever set you free?
If you do, I'm sad to say,
It simply isn't so.
You will never get away from me!

JEKYLL
All that you are
Is a face in the mirror!
I close my eyes, and you'll disappear!

HYDE
I'm what you face
When you face in the mirror!
Long as you live, I will still be here!

JEKYLL
All that you are
Is the end of a nightmare!
All that you are is a dying scream!
After tonight,
I shall end this demon dream!

HYDE
This is not a dream, my friend-
And it will never end!
This one is the nightmare that goes on!
Hyde is here to stay,
No matter what you may pretend-
And I'll flourish, long after you're gone!

JEKYLL
Soon you will die,
And my memory will hide you!
You cannot choose but to loose control

HYDE
You can't control me!
I live deep inside you!
Each day you'll feel me devour your soul!

JEKYLL
I don't need you to survive,
Like you need me!
I'll become whole
As you dance with death!
And I'll rejoice
As you breathe your final breath!

HYDE
For I'll live inside you forever!

JEKYLL
No!

HYDE
With Satan himself by my side!

JEKYLL
No!

HYDE
And I know that, now and forever,
They'll never be able to separate
Jekyll from Hyde!

JEKYLL
Can't you see
It's over now?
It's time to die!

HYDE
No, not I!
Only you!

JEKYLL
If I die,
You die too!

HYDE
You'll die in me,
I'll be you!

JEKYLL
Dam you, Hyde!
Set me free!

HYDE
Can't you see,
You are me?

JEKYLL
No!
Deep inside -!

HYDE
I am you!
You are Hyde!

JEKYLL
No - never!

HYDE
Yes, forever!

JEKYLL
God d*** you, Hyde!
Take all your evil deeds,
And rot in hell!

HYDE
I'll see you there, Jekyll!
