Taboo Original Broadway Cast - Il Adore lyrics

NICOLA Mother clutches the head of a dying son Anger and tears, so many things to feel Sensitive boy, good with his hands No one mentions the unmentionable But everybody understands Here in this cold white room Tied up to these machines It's hard to imagine him as he used to be Laughing, screaming, tumbing queen Like the most amazing light show you've ever seen Whirling, swirling, never blue How could you go and die, what a lonely thing to do Silence equals d**h, this is what they say But the anger and the tears do not take their pain away How far must we go, how near must it be Before it touches you, before it touches me Here in this cold white room Tied up to these machines It's hard to imagine life as it used to be NICOLA & ENSEMBLE Laughing, screaming, tumbing queen NICOLA Like the most amazing light show you've ever seen NICOLA & ENSEMBLE Whirling, swirling, never blue NICOLA How could you go and die, what a selfish thing to do Did you ever ask those strangers what they're searching for? Did they laugh and tell you they're not really sure? You were hurt by love and still you came right back for more Il adore, il adore, il adore... Ah...
