Endgame #3/Chess Game #3 (Album Version)歌词

[00:55.380]{ANATOLY}
[00:57.500]They all think they see a man
[01:00.780]Who doesn't know
[01:03.580]Which move to make
[01:06.560]Which way to go
[01:09.530]Whose private life
[01:12.580]Caused his decline
[01:16.840]Wrecked his grand design
[01:24.570]Some are vicious
[01:26.190]Some are fools
[01:28.080]And others blind
[01:31.350]To see in me
[01:34.010]One of their kind
[01:42.200]Anyone can be
[01:43.970]A husband, lover
[01:45.320]Sooner them than me
[01:47.220]When they discover
[01:48.590]Their domestic bliss is
[01:50.210]Shelter for their failing
[01:55.160]Nothing could be worse
[01:57.190]Than self-denial
[01:58.420]Having to reverse
[02:00.390]This endless trial
[02:01.740]Of a partner's rather
[02:03.360]Sad demands prevailing
[02:06.580]{SVETLANA}
[02:06.800]As you watch yourself caring
[02:09.690]About a minor sporting triumph
[02:12.060]Sharing your win with esoterics
[02:14.830]Paranoids, hysterics
[02:17.020]You don't pay attention
[02:18.660]To what goes on around them
[02:21.720]They leave the ones they love
[02:23.310]The way they found them
[02:25.660]A normal person must
[02:27.110]Dismiss you with disgust
[02:28.910]And weep for those who trusted you
[02:31.820]{ANATOLY}
[02:32.480]Nothing you have said
[02:34.350]Is revelation
[02:35.640]Take my blues as red
[02:37.630]My consolation
[02:38.920]Finding out at last
[02:40.170]My one true obligation
[02:43.790]{FLORENCE}
[02:44.010]Since you seem to have shut out
[02:47.050]The world at large
[02:48.060]Then maybe I should cut out
[02:50.820]Your tiny inessential
[02:52.610]World-- inconsequential
[02:54.270]In the kind of game you're playing
[02:56.680]How do you do it?
[02:59.120]I tried to be that cynical but blew it
[03:02.690]I only changed your life
[03:04.270]You left your home, your wife
[03:05.830]I'm not surprised I slipped your mind
[03:09.380]{ANATOLY}
[03:09.890]Nothing you have said
[03:11.940]Is revelation
[03:13.280]Take my blues as red
[03:15.330]My consolation
[03:16.560]Finding out at last
[03:18.050]My one true obligation
[03:25.590]{FLORENCE, SVETLANA & SOLOISTS}
[03:27.210]Listen to them shout
[03:29.610]They saw you do it
[03:30.980]In their minds, no doubt
[03:32.970]That you've been through it
[03:34.250]Suffered for your art
[03:35.590]But in the end a winner
[03:40.950]We have never heard
[03:42.790]Such an ovation
[03:44.020]Who could not be stirred?
[03:46.050]Such dedication
[03:47.290]Skill and guts
[03:48.370]A model for the young beginner
[03:52.350]They're completely enchanted
[03:55.430]But they don't take your qualities for granted
[03:59.100]It isn't very often
[04:00.950]That the critics soften
[04:02.510]Nonetheless you've won their hearts
[04:04.600]How can we begin to
[04:07.450]Appreciate the work that you've put into
[04:11.310]Your calling through the years
[04:12.730]The blood, and sweat and tears
[04:14.410]The late, late nights, the early starts?
[04:18.510]There they go again!
[04:20.540]Your deeds inflame them
[04:21.740]Drive them wild, but then
[04:23.820]Who wants to tame them?
[04:25.270]If they want a part of you
[04:26.900]Who'd really blame them?
[04:31.430]{ANATOLY}
[04:36.860]And so
[04:38.200]You're letting me know--
[04:39.590]{FLORENCE}
[04:39.880]You're the only one
[04:40.840]Who's never suffered
[04:41.780]Anything at all!
[04:42.670]{ANATOLY}
[04:43.300]How you've hated my success!
[04:45.320]{SVETLANA}
[04:45.860]Well, I won't crawl
[04:48.020]And you can slink back
[04:50.750]To your pawns
[04:52.130]And to your tarts
[04:53.970]{ANATOLY}
[04:54.180]And every poison word
[04:56.340]Shows that you never understood!
[04:59.390]{ANATOLY}......{SVETLANA}......{SOLOISTS}
[04:59.600]Never!............../Liar!................../Check!
[05:00.690]Never!............../Liar!................../Check!
[05:01.390]{ANATOLY}......{FLORENCE}......{SOLOISTS}
[05:01.600]Never!............../Liar!................../Check!
[05:02.620]Never!............../Liar!................../Check!
[05:03.440]Never!
[05:04.400]Never!
[05:11.160]{FLORENCE, SVETLANA & SOLOISTS}
[05:11.360]Nothing you have said
[05:13.190]Is revelation
[05:14.930]Take my blues as red
[05:17.260]My consolation
[05:18.810]Finding out that
[05:20.070]I'm my only obligation
[05:23.680]{ANATOLY}
[05:24.300]Is there no one in my life
[05:26.560]Who will not claim
[05:29.340]My right to steal
[05:32.210]My work, my name
[05:35.090]My success, my fame
[05:41.290]And my freedom?
[05:48.900]{THE ARBITER, spoken}
[05:49.400]Anatoly Sergievesky is the winner, and remains world champion
[05:55.930]{Crowd applauds}
[06:19.980]{FLORENCE, spoken}
[06:22.670]So, you've done it. You're still the champion
[06:26.400]{ANATOLY, spoken}
[06:26.760]I had to win to be free
[06:29.520]{FLORENCE, spoken}
[06:29.950]Free for what?
[06:31.770]{ANATOLY, spoken}
[06:31.960]Free to help your father-- if I go back.
[06:35.520]Free to play chess-- it's the only thing I can stay true to
