Overcome

[CYRANO]
The way I feel is like falling stars
Diving into cold ocean waves
Words can only get me so far
They cannot describe the way that it hurts
'Cause every time I see you
I am overcome
I try to tell you
Tell you how much I need you
But I turn and run

[ROXANNE]
Your letters to me are like music

[CYRANO]
They're just a mask in a lonely coward's game

[ROXANNE]
What is it you're so afraid of losing?

[CYRANO]
That I might lose everything if I lose the pain

[ROXANNE & CYRANO]
'Cause every time I see you
I am overcome
It'd make him (you) laugh to think someone like me
Could keep someone like you
Look what I've become

[CYRANO]
You wore your hair down one time last spring in the chapel
Your lips painted red
I remember the day

[ROXANNE]
We hadn't met yet, how could you possibly remember that?
You watched me then? Why didn't you say something?

'Cause every time I see you
I am overcome
I try to tell you
Tell you how much I need you too
Look what I've become

Nothing feels real anymore when you're not around me
Even the sky looks like it's behind glass
Hearing your voice now, I can see everything clearly
I can see that you really are my love at last

[CYRANO]
But oh, Roxanne...

[ROXANNE]
I'm right here, love

[CYRANO]
Words fail me

[ROXANNE]
Please come to me

[CYRANO]
I try, but I can't

[ROXANNE]
This is real love

[CYRANO]
Dare to believe you'd have me

[ROXANNE]
I have no doubt
I know that you're the one now

[CYRANO]
You don't know anything

[ROXANNE]
I know that it's you

[CYRANO]
Roxanne, if this was true

[ROXANNE]
Just tell me what you need now

[CYRANO]
Then I'd need for nothing

[ROXANNE]
Just tell me what to do
