Rent – Another Day lyrics

Roger
Who do you think you are?
Barging in on me and my guitar
Little girl - hey
The door is that way
You better go you know
The fire's out anyway
Take your powder - take your candle
Your sweet whisper
I just can't handle

Well take your hair in the moonlight
Your brown eyes - goodbye, goodnight

I should tell you I should tell you
I should tell you I should -- no!

Another time - another place
Our temperature would climb
There'd be a long embrace
We'd do another dance
It'd be another play
Looking for romance
Come back another day
Another day

Mimi
The heart may freeze or it can burn
The pain will ease if I can learn

There is no future
There is no past
I live this moment
As my last

There's only us
There's only this
Forget regret
Or life is yours to miss
No other road
No other way
No day but today

Roger
Excuse me if I'm off track
But if you're so wise
Then tell me - why do you need
Smack?

Take your needle
Take your fancy prayer
And don't forget
Get the moonlight out of your hair

Long ago - you might've lit up my heart
But the fire's dead - ain't never ever
Gonna start

Another time - another place
The words would only rhyme
We'd be in outer space
It'd be another song
We'd sing another way
You wanna prove me wrong?
Come back another day
Another day

Mimi
There's only us
Only tonight
We must let go
To know what's right
No other course
No other way
No day but today

Mimi and others
I can't control
My destiny
I trust my soul

My only goal
Is just - to be

There's only now

There's only here
Give in to love

Or live in fear
No other path
No other way

No day but today

All
No day but today
No day but today
No day but today
No day but today
No day but today

Roger
Control your
Temper
She doesn't see
Who say's that
There's a soul
Just let me be

Who do you think
You are?

Barging in on me
And my
Guitar
Little girl, hey
The door is
That way
The fire's out
Anyway

Take your powder

Take your candle

Take your brown eyes
Your pretty smile
Your silhouette

Another time,
Another place
Another rhyme,
A warm embrace

Another dance,
Another way
Another chance,
Another day

All
No day but today
