'Now'Lyrics from Dr Zhivago (2011 Musical)

Zhivago:

I'm lying in this tent, and there's not much light,

And I cannot write for long.

But these words I've never said keep haunting me,

And I know they can't be wrong.

And I'm still a little shy to speak my mind,

But the truth just won't stay down.

For here in the night,

There's no wrong and no right.

There is only the dark;

I'm alone with my heart.

And now,

I need to tell you now.

I need to tell you how you make me feel.

You're like a song,

I sing you all day long;

A melody so strong and sweet and real.

And I don't know if you'll ever feel this way,

But I have to say what I have to say.

I love you,

And I need to tell you now.

Lara:

I wonder if he knew every time we met,

I was trembling inside.

I longed to take your hand for we stood so close,

But the distance seemed so wide.

I was waiting for a time, a turn, a sign,

As the days kept rushing by.

And it all went so fast,

A moment had past.

And I know that you're gone,

But the hunger lives on.

And now,

I need to tell you now.

I need to tell you how you make me feel.

There's only now;

What point is there to wait?

Tomorrow is too late,

I can't unsee,

That I may not ever have another day;

So I have to say what I have to say.

I love you,

And I need to tell you now.

Zhivago:

My arms are empty,

Lara:

But you're still here;

Both:

Like a mirage that will disappear.

Now, the only time is now;

A time to tell you how I need you near.

I breathe you in,

I feel you on my skin.

You melt away the cold and pain and fear.

And there may not ever be another day,

But I know my life can't end this way.

I love you,

Zhivago:

And I need to tell you now.

Lara:

I need to tell you...

Both:

I need to tell you now.
