R. Strauss: Der Rosenkavalier, Op. 59 / Act 2: "Mir ist die Ehre widerfahren"

歌詞

-1- You're at a stand still You're at an impass Your mountains of dreams Seems harder to climb By those who have made you Feel like an outcast Cause you dare to be different So they're drawing a line They say you're a fool They feed you resistance They tell you you'll never go very far But they'll be the same ones That stand in the distance Alone in the shadow Of your shining star CHORUS Just keep on the same road And keep on your toes And just keep your heart steady as she goes And let them call you what they will It don't matter A rose by any name is still a rose The kindness of strangers It seems like a fable But they've yet to see What I see in you But you can make it If you are able To believe in yourself The way I do (chorus) Cause a deal is a deal In the heart of the dream And a spade is a spade If you know what I mean And a rose is a rose is a rose To deal with the scoffers Well, it's part of the bargain They heckle from back rows And they bark at the moon Their flowers are fading In time's bitter garden But yours is only Beginning to bloom So keep on that same road And keep on your toes And just keep your heart steady as she goes And let them call you what they will Just remember A rose by any name is still a rose
