The Revelation Lyrics - Miss Saigon

Good evening, ma'am 

Don't turn the bed yet 

I'm not the maid 

What do you want then? 

They must have written the room number wrong 

I am looking for someone named Christopher Scott 

317, oh, I'm sorry, unless 

Well, you must be, of course, you're John's wife, are you not? 

Oh God, I see, it had to happen 

You must be Kim, Chris went to find you 

Please come inside, no one will hurt you 

I'm Chris's wife, my name is Ellen 

In a way, I am glad I am meeting you first 

Understand, you were only a name till tonight 

I don't know how I'd feel if our roles were reversed 

Please won't you sit down 

Tell me you are lying 

We've been married a year, I am sorry, it's true 

He said he'd come to get me 

He says he tried to reach you, but what could he do? 

Please tell me you're not married 

You don't know, you can't know what I've done to be here 

You don't know how he needed a new start 

I feel walls in my heart closing in 

I can't breathe, I can't win 

As for the child 

You say it's Chris's 

Oh yes, madame, my son is Chris's 

I had a dream for my son to belong 

And not live his life in the streets like a rat 

We aren't rich, but we'll shoulder our load 

Chris and I are totally together on that 

Then you must take Tam with you 

Take a child from his mother, impossible Kim 

You will take Tam with you 

Then he'll get what I wanted for him 

But Kim, your child needs you 

Chris is married to me, we want kids of our own 

Tam's chance lies with you now, not with me 

No, can't you see 

It won't work, it can't be 

If you're saying that 

Because you've made him change his mind 

Chris must go away 

And leave me and his son behind 

If you're saying 

That because my husband has another wife 

My child has no future, like the dust of life 

He must come tonight to my place 

Tell me so to my face 

I don't want this, I didn't come here 

To meet a girl who loves my husband 

I came here to help, but what do I do? 

Now, after this, what do I?
