[ Featuring Original Broadway Cast of Lempicka ]
[TAMARA]
Woman is plane, lines, form
Woman is plane, color, light
Woman is speed, green, shattered
Woman is powerful
Woman is shape, breath, form
Woman is bone, muscle, light
Woman is curve and shadow
Woman is beautiful
Black night, bodies and breath
I am alive
Black water, roll me another one
Tobacco and opium
I am on fire
Please let me blow the smoke into your open mouth
Here in the light
Woman is gone all night
Sneak past the room where my daughter sleeps
Sleeping child
Woman is flesh, kiss, lifting
Woman is Rafaela
Black night holding its breath
Are we alive?
Black eyes, falling fast into them
Tobacco and opium
Flicker, match, light
Please let me hold you close here in the breathing dark
Don't close your eyes
A painting is not a woman
Or a warhorse
Or a glittering sky
A painting is canvas, pigment, plan and design
Always design
Every minute designed
Teach me to live, teach me to breathe, teach me to see
No question, no hesitation
Kiss me
I want to feel your soft lips, your sharp teeth
Feel your nails in my flesh, your light, your color, your pulse
Your sweat, your speed, your muscle, your flesh
Your skin, your bone
Your shadow, your breath, your blood
Your mouth, your cry shattered
Your heartbeat, your heartbeat, your heartbeat
Your heartbeat, your heartbeat
Warm dawn, bodies and breath
I am alive
Damp sheets
Watching your body rise
Tangled hair on the pillow
In the soft light
Please let me watch you here
Don't wake up turning
Don't open your eyes
