1. THE GIRL : NORMA JEANE

(Instrumental)


2. THE ORPHAN : WHITHER THE WIND BLOWS

She sees the days of summer,
But she sees the fallen leaves.
Winter will soon surround her,
Brought on the autumn breeze.

She hears the sound of laughter.
Watching the children play,
Hoping for new horizons.
Tomorrow's another day.

Whither the wind blows,
That’s where her heart goes,
Carrying dreams on and on.
After the dawning,
New hope every morning,
She whispers “soon I will be gone..."

Living her life with strangers,
A mother she's hardly known,
Searching for new tomorrows,
Somewhere that she calls home.

Whither the wind blows,
That's where her heart goes.
Carrying dreams on and on,

After the dawning,
New hope every morning,
She whispers “soon I will be gone..."

No-one to hold, or hear when she cries,
No-one to wipe the tears from her eyes.
Standing upon the crossroads.
Too young to know the rules,
Norma awaits a future.
For heroes, saints and fools

Whither the wind blows
That's where her heart goes.
Carrying dreams on and on,
After the dawning.
New hope every morning.
She whispers "soon I will be gone..."

No-one to hold, or hear when she cries.
No-one to wipe the tears from her eyes.


3. THE DREAMER : HOLD ON

My little girl
What shall we see?
As we look at life.
Upon the siiver screen.
Those movie stars.
Shine before our eyes.
As vou watch and dream,
Too young to realise...

Norma jeane hold on,
You will find a better way,
Norma jeane hold on... to your dreams,
You will be a star someday.

We've seen the soldiers,
The cowboys and the spies,
You've watched them win the war.
With wonder in your eyes.
We've seen the dancers,
Moving all in time,
You've wished-upon a star,
To have you chorus line…

Norma jeane hold on,
You will find a better way,
Norma jeane hold on... to your dreams,
You will be a star someday.


4. THE MODEL : MAKE THIS BODY WORK

Must be a reason why I was born this way?
"A body to die for" I have heard men say
Show me the camera..." lights on Norma Jeane".
Pay and display me in your magazine.

All night,
All day,
Hold on,
I'm on my way,
Guess what I'm gonna do?
I'm gonna make this body work ... for you!

Here in the limelight it's another world.
Magic and make-up. .. and I’m your cover Girl.
Under the spotlight fashion fans the flame,
Figure you know me, but do you know my name?

All night,
All day.
Hold on,
I'm'on my way,
Guess what I'm gonna do?
I'm gonna make this body work.

These legs,
These lines,
Hi-heels and dollar signs,

These lips,
These eyes.
These curves... no surprise,

All night,
All day.
Hold on I'm on my way,
That's what I'm gonna do.
I'm gonna make this body work
Make this body work... for you!

Make this body work... for you!


5. THE ACTRESS : WHO AM I ?

She's just a girl,
Doesn't know which way to go,
In this crazy world,
Where life is just a Show.

I'm just a girl,
I don't know which way to go,
In this crazy world,
But I just wanna know...

How we live this fantasy?
Where we laugh,
And we cry,
And watch the world goin' by,
Shielded from reality,
Where we dream,
We can fly,
But sll I wanna know is,
Who am I?

I'm just a girl,
Now I'm here I'll change my name,
And I'll be strong,
And I will play the game.

She's just a girl,
Doesn't know which way to turn,
In this heartless town,
Where idols crash and burn.

Here we live this fantasy,
Where we dance,
And we dare,
And feel the wind in our hair,
Sheltered from the stormy sea,
All the fun,
Of the fair,
But when she falls from grace,
Who'll be there?

Maybe you'll marry a prince?
Maybe for pleasure and pain?
Maybe I'll sparkle and shine?
Diamonds falling as rain!
Pack all your troubles away,
And get on the train.

Maybe you'll see millionaries?
All on the search for a wife?
Maybe I'll sing for a king?
I could be queen for a night!
Tomorrow's startin' today,
'Cause you're leavin',
Pack all your troubles away,
It's a new life!

You could be livin' dream?
Worshipped from near and afar,
Get me a big limousine,
Champagne and caviar!
Pack all your troubles away,
Now you're a star!

She's just a girl,
And she'll soon be flying high,
On fragile wings,
A lonely butterfly.

I'm just a girl,
As the sun breaks through the cloud,
And welcomes me,
My mother will be proud...

How we live this fantasy,
Where we laugh,
And we cry,
And watch the world goin' by,
Sheltered from life's stormy sea,
All the fun,
Of the fair,
I hope you're talking me there?
Shielded from reality,
Where we dream we can fly,
But all I wanna know is...
Who am I?


6. THE WIFE : LOVE LIKE A RAZORBLADE

Your love like a razorblade,
Your love like a razorblade,
Shining so bright... it cuts me like a knife
And leaves me bleeding... yeah.

Your smile is like the midday sun.
Yes your smile is like the midday sun,
Shining so bright... there's danger in the light,
That leaves me burnin' ... burnin' inside.

Your eyes are like the freeway signs,
Yes your eyes are like the freeway signs,
Shining so bright... they guide me through the night,
'Cause they never fade... no, no, no...

Your love like a razorblade


7. THE PATIENT : BREAK THE SPELL

She needs to sleep,
But the night won't let her in,
She needs to break the spell,
Still the demons win,
They haunt her and taunt her,
Hound her till dawn,
She needs to break the spell,
And drive away the storm.

Break the spell,
Break the chain,
Feel the sun,
See the rainbow,
Guide your way,
Break the chain,
Break the spell,
Come alive again!

She needs to wake,
But the day won't turn the key,
She needs to break the chain,
Set the demons free,
They find her and bind her,
Surround her and win,
She needs to break the chain,
And let the morning in.

Break the spell,
Break the chain,
Feel the sun,
See the rainbow,
Guide your way,
Break the chain,
Break the spell,
Come alive again!

When we see our dreams unfold,
Where are we... out in the cold?

All alone or lost and found?
Head in the clouds or feet on the ground?

Through the smile... a pain unseen,
Alone in the crowd... there's norma jeane...


8. THE MISTRESS : NOT FOR SURE

You ask me how long I'd like to spend with you,
I don't know... not for sure,
Maybe a lifetime or two?

You ask how I feel on the days when we meet,
I don't know... not for sure,
Like a girl with the world at her feet,
A prisoner finally free... free to breathe.

You're the light in my window,
You're the dreams in my sleep,
It feels good but I don't know,
What it all means for me?

You ask how I feel when I sleep alone,
I don't know... not for sure,
I don't know... not for sure,
Like emptiness I've never known.

You ask what I see when I daydream a while,
I don't know... not for sure,
Maybe the light in your smile,
Seen through the eyes of a child... bright and true.

You're the start of my morning,
You're the dawn of my day,
When love came without warning,
How could I turn away?

Hold on to this moment,
Hold on where we stand,
Hold on to this moment,
Hold on while we can... while we can.

Youre the heart of my sunrise,
You're the stars in my sight,
You're the Prince in these Showgirl's eyes,
Youre the time of my life.
You're the light in my window,
You're the dreams in my sleep,
It feels good but I don't know,
What it all means for me... for me?


9. THE FORSAKEN : FEEL LIKE GOING HOME

Lord I feel like going home,
I tried and I failed and I'm tired and weary,
Everything I ever done was wrong,
And I feel like going home.

Lord I tried to see it through,
But it was too much for me,
And now I'm coming home to you,
That's where I wanna be.

Cloudy skies are rolling in,
And not a friend around to help me,
From all the places I have been,
I just feel like going home


10. THE WITNESS : UNFINISHED LIFE

Room with a view,
Hiding away like a face in the crowd,
Nodbody knew,
Nobody noticed the cloud,
Under the sun,
Waiting his turn like a thief in the night,
Man with a gun,
Only had death in his sight.

Did she know?
Did she cry?
Did she hear the bullets fly?
Was she there.
By his side?
Did she se the future die?

Fortune or fate?
One lucky strike and the damage was done,
Hounded by hate,
Harvey had nowhere to run,

Could she scream?
Had she known,
Could she feel the danger zone?
Hand in hand,
Not alone,
Was she there to take him home?

Holding the line,
"Only one man... only one gun"
Lie after lie,
Hiding the truth had begun.

Could she scream?
Had she known,
Could she feel the danger zone?
Hand in hand,
Not alone,
Was she there to take him home?

Did she know?
Did she cry?
Did she hear the bullets fly?
Was she there.
By his side?
Did she se the future die?


11. THE WOMAN : MARILYN

Think of me as the friend you cannot see,
A shadow in the haze standing just beyond the gaze,
If danger should find you,
I'll be there... walking behind you,
Through the rain I will hear you call my name.

Marilyn, marilyn, marilyn
Hollywood mannequin
Marilyn, marilyn
Silver-screen movie queen,
Waiting for you.

Think of me as the way I used to be,
Your lover and your friend... and on who you could depend,
So... wherever you take us,
I'll be there... nothing will break us,
Young and free... that's how you'll remember me.

Marilyn, marilyn, marilyn
Flying high... butterfly
Marilyn, marilyn
Have you seen norma jeane,
Waiting for you?

No-one can bleed me anymore,
Feel I belong here on the shore,
Only the lonely understand,
Follow my footprints in the sand.

Marilyn, marilyn, marilyn
Hollywood mannequin;

Marilyn, marilyn,
Flying too high?

Marilyn, marilyn, marilyn
Silver-screen movie queen;

Marilyn
Have you seen norma jeane,
Waiting for you?

Only the lonely understand,
Follow my footprints in the sand.

If danger should find you,
I'll be there... walking behind you,
Through the pain reach out... and call my name

Marilyn...
