Lyrics Too Much For One Heart - Live From The Prince Edward Theatre, London / 2014 - Miss Saigon Original Cast , Eva Noblezada

JOHN
I'm not as a friend. I have a job to do.
It's strange to find my work should lead me here to you.
Chris know all anout you, I have shown him all this.
But I think that it's time you know all about Chris.

KIM
Yes, tell me everything
I beg you
How I've longed for this to start
All my prayers are finally answered
This is too much for one heart

JOHN
Kim, he went crazy when he lost you. Spoke to no one for a year.
Then he finally said, "I'm home now. My life has to go on here."
Kim, let me finish talking please. That was three whole years ago.

KIM
Yes. Yes, I know.
I know how pain can grow
When the rock you hold onto is a love miles away.
Listen, please, I already know this story. Take us to the USA.

JOHN
When we're finished here you'll see him.
Chris arrived with me today.

KIM
Oh, Tam, he's here! He's here,
He's so near we might breathe the same air tonight!
Your father's here!
I dreamed so hard

JOHN
I can't tell her like this

KIM
I kept my faith

JOHN
I should not be the one

KIM
And now it's true

JOHN
Chris must first see his son

Now I can see we've been watched over // They don't say in the files there's a woman in love
And our life's about to start // here
Sun and Moon will be together // What I see in her eyes Chris still knows nothing of
This is too much for one heart

JOHN
There's only thing I can do
I must bring Chris here to see you

CLUB OWNER
I thought I said, "no kids around"
So what's that brat doing here
You better take care, I'm watching both of you
You, and your Engineer
Sir, would you like a massage?

JOHN
No thanks, it's not my scene

CLUB OWNER
You can find boys at La Cage

ENGINEER
Where is he?
What is that look
He was right on the Don't tell me he slipped free

KIM
Engineer, Chris is here
John is going to get him
And bring him to me
My heart's ready to burst
I don't know what I'll tell him first

ENGINEER
That guy is no one to trust
Or a soldier who's just learned he's fathered a son
You got to get to Chris first
I will find his address now
Before he can run

KIM
You can trust what he'll do
Don't you worry
I'll mention you

ENGINEER
Don't screw with me little bitch
I don't want any hitch
You just do as you're told
You'll go to his hotel
I'll be working as well
Guarding our bag of gold

KIM
Tell me where, and I'll go
He'll be longing for me I know

You have brought me through the lightning
You have watched me from afar
You know all and you forgive me
Loving parents that you are

ENGINEER
Please, let your daughter have your blessing go on,
Talk to your ghosts, little girl
On the life about to start
We must journey to a new world you have one chance,
Just one he's here
Talking to you
And I must be on my way I'm on my way
