Maury Yeston - Be On Your Own lyrics

[LUISA] Be on your own You've always talked about your need to travel Now go off, unravel On your own Go find some restaurant attendant Go show her how independent You have grown Go on... Be on your way There's not a single reason I can find To make me want to keep you one more day There isn't any sort of price that you could pay There isn't any sort of word that you could say There isn't any sort of magic To avoid this tragicomic little play We need to play Be on your way Go on No need to carry out This masquerade When all that we're about's Begun to fade I set you free There's not much longer to complain I'll soon relieve you of your pain When I set you free If that is all you wish to have, then I agree No need for thanks, your just rewards will be my fee Go off and live your petty fictions Full of blatant contradictions you can't see And what will be Is that you'll leave And you'll take with you all you own From A to Z And all of me (Luisa exits through the audience. For the first time in the Show, Guido is alone on stage.)
