Word Of Your Body (Reprise)–2001 Workshop Lyrics
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mvuhltdx-n8
I really like this version!! I apologize if any lyrics are wrong!
HANSCHEN
Come cream away the bliss
Travel the world within my lips
Gather the pearls from the whispered seas
Haven’t you heard the word of your body?
HANSCHEN AND ERNST
Oh I’m gonna be wounded
Oh I’m gonna be your wound
Oh I’m gonna bruise you
Oh you’re gonna be my bruise
(they kiss here?)
ERNST
oh god
HANSCHEN
Mm I know
When we look back thirty years from now, tonight will seem unbelievably beautiful
(audience laughs for some fucking reason??)
ERNST
and in the meantime?
HANSCHEN
why not?
HANSCHEN
Come steal away my kiss
Fondle the world within my fist
Map up the pearls from the whispered pleas
Haven’t you heard a word, how I want you?
HANSCHEN AND ERNST
Oh I’m gonna be wounded
Oh I’m gonna be your wound
Oh I’m gonna bruise you
Oh you’re gonna be my bruise
(I’m not sure what’s happening here but I think they might be kissing)
HANSCHEN
don’t be sad
ERNST
on my way here this afternoon, I thought perhaps we’d only talk
HANSCHEN
so are you sorry we?
ERNST
I love you, Hanschen, as I’ve never loved anyone
HANSCHEN
and so you should
ERNST
huh?
HANSCHEN
so exquisite:
the sunset, the vines above, the evening wind whistling over the mountain
HANSCHEN, ERNST AND ???
Oh you're gonna be wounded
Oh you're gonna be my wound
Oh you're gonna bruise too
Oh I’m gonna be your bruise
