~Seasons of love~
ALL
Five hundred twenty-five thousand
Six hundred minutes,
Five hundred twenty-five thousand
Moments so dear.

How do you measure, measure a year?

In daylights, in sunsets, in midnights
In cups of coffee
In inches, in miles, in laughter, in strife.

In five hundred twenty-five thousand
Six hundred minutes
How do you measure
A year in the life?

How about love?
How about love?
How about love? Measure in love

Seasons of love. Seasons of love

JOANNE
Five hundred twenty-five thousand
Six hundred minutes!
Five hundred twenty-five thousand
Journeys to plan.

Five hundred twenty-five thousand
Six hundred minutes
How do you measure the life
Of a woman or a man?

COLLINS
In truths that she learned,
Or in times that he cried.
In bridges he burned,
Or the way that she died.

ALL

Seasons of love!

JOANNE

You Measure in love know that love is a gift from up above Seasons of love.
Share love, give love spread love Measure measure you life in love.

~light my candle~
ROGER
What'd you forget?

MIMI
Got a light?

ROGER
I know you - you're - you're shivering

MIMI
It's nothing they turned off my heat
And I'm just a little weak on my feet
Would you light my candle?
What are you staring at?

ROGER
Nothing, your hair in the moonlight
You look familiar
Can you make it?

MIMI
Just haven't eaten much today
At least the room stopped spinning
Anyway. What?

ROGER
Nothing, your smile reminded me of

MIMI
I always remind people of - who is she?

ROGER
She died. Her name was April.

MIMI
It's out again
Sorry about your friend
Would you light my candle?

ROGER
Well

MIMI
Yeah. Ow!

ROGER
Oh, the wax - it's

MIMI
Dripping! I like it - between my

ROGER
Fingers, I figured ...
Oh, well. Goodnight ...
It blew out again?

MIMI
No - I think thta I dropped my stash

ROGER
I know I've seen you out and about
When I used to go out,
Your candle's out

MIMI
I'm illin' - I had it when
I walked in the door
It was pure - is it on the floor?

ROGER
The floor?

MIMI
They say I have the best ***
Below 14th street. Is it true?

ROGER
What?

MIMI
You're staring again.

ROGER
Oh no.
I mean you do - have a nice -
I mean - you look familiar

MIMI
Like your dead girlfriend?

ROGER
Only when you smile.
But I'm sure I've seen you
Somewhere else -

MIMI
Do you go to the Cat Scratch Club?
That's where I work - I dance

ROGER
Yes! They used to tie you up -

MIMI
It's a living

ROGER
I didn't recognize you,
Without the handcuffs

MIMI
We could light the candle
Oh won't you light the candle?

ROGER
Why don't you forget that stuff
You look like you're sixteen

MIMI
I'm nineteen - but I'm old for my age
I'm just born to be bad

ROGER
I once was born to be bad
I used to shiver like that

MIMI
I have no heat - I told you

ROGER
I used to sweat

MIMI
I got a cold

ROGER
Uh huh
I used to be a junkie

MIMI
But now and then I like to

ROGER
Uh huh

MIMI
Feel good

ROGER
Oh, here it - um

MIMI
What's that?

ROGER
Candy bar wrapper

MIMI
We could light the candle
Oh, what'd you do with my candle?

ROGER
That was my last match

MIMI
Our eyes'll adjust, thank
God for the moon

ROGER
Maybe it's not the moon at all
I hear Spike Lee's shooting down the street

MIMI
Bah humbug ... Bah humbug

ROGER
Cold hands

MIMI
Yours too.
Big. Like my father's
Do you wanna dance?

ROGER
With you?

MIMI
No - with my father

ROGER
I'm Roger

MIMI
They call me
They call me Mimi

ROGER
Who do you think you are?
Barging in on me and my guitar?
Little girl - hey, the door is that way
You better go you know
The fire's out anyway
Take your powder - take your candle
Your sweet whisper I just can't handle
Well take your hair in the moonlight
Your brown eyes - goodbye, goodnight
I should tell you I should tell you
I should tell you I should - no!
Another time - another place
Our temperature would climb
There'd be a long embrace
We'd do another dance
It'd be another play
Looking for romance?
Come back another day
Another day

MIMI
The heart may freeze or it can burn
The pain will ease if I can learn
There is no future, there is no past
I live this moment as my last
There's only us, there's only this
Forget regret, or life is yours to miss
No other road, no other way
No day but today

ROGER
Excuse me if I'm off track,
But if you're so wise
Then tell me - why do you need smack?
Take your needle,
Take your fancy prayer
And don't forget
Get the moonlight out of your hair
Long ago - you might've lit up my heart
But the fire's dead - ain't never ever gonna start
Another time - another place
The words would only rhyme
We'd be in outer space
It'd be another song
We'd sing another way
You wanna prove me wrong?
Come back another day
Another day

MIMI
There's only us, only tonight
We must let go to know what's right
No other course, no other way
No day but today

MIMI,ANGEL,COLLINS & MARK
I can't control
My destiny
I trust my soul
My only goal is just to be
There's only now
There's only here
Give in to love
Or live in fear
No other path
No other way

ROGER
Control your temper
She doesn't see
Who says that there's a soul
Just let me be
Who do you think you are
Barging here on my and my guitar
Little girl hey, the door is that way

MIMI
No day but today...

ROGER
The fire's out anyway

MIMI, ANGEL, COLLINS & MARK
No day but today

ROGER
Take your powder, take your candle

MIMI, ANGEL, COLLINS & MARK
No day but today

ROGER
Take your brown eyes, your pretty smile, your silhouette

MIMI, ANGEL, COLLINS & MARK
No day but today

ROGER
Another time, another place,
Another rhyme, a warm embrace

MIMI, ANGEL, COLLINS & MARK
No day but today

ROGER
Another dance, another way
Another chance, another day

MIMI, ANGEL, COLLINS & MARK
No day but today

~Today 4 U~
COLLINS
Gentlemen, our benefactor on this Christmas Day
Whose charity is only matched by talent, I must say
A new member of the Alphabet City avant-garde ...
Angel Dumott Schunard!

ANGEL
Today for you - tomorrow for me
Today for you - tomorrow for me

COLLINS
And you should hear her beat!

MARK
You earned this on the street?

ANGEL
It was my lucky day today on Avenue A
When a lady in a limousine drove my way
She said, "Dahling - be a dear - haven't slept in a year
I need your help to make my neighbor's yappy dog disappear"
"This Akita-Evita just won't shut up
I believe if you play non-stop that pup
Will breathe its very last high-strung breath
I'm certain that cur will bark itself to death"

Today for you - tomorrow for me
Today for you - tomorrow for me

We agreed on a fee-
A thousand dollar guarantee
Tax-free - and a bonus if I trim her tree
Now who could foretell that it would go so well
But sure as I am here that dog is now in doggy hell
After an hour - Evita - in all her glory
On the window ledge of that 23rd story
Like Thelma and Louise did when they got the blues
Swan dove into the courtyard of the Gracie Mews

Today for you - tomorrow for me
Today for you - tomorrow for me

Back on the street where I met my sweet
Where he was moaning and groaning on the cold concrete
The nurse took him home for some mercurochrome
Then I dressed his wounds and got him back on his feet
Sing it!

Today for you - tomorrow for me
Today for you - tomorrow for me, I said
Today for you - tomorrow for me
Today for you - tomorrow ...
Whoa, ohhhhh for me!!!

hope that helps!!! :) or you can just go to this website...:

Musical: Rent
Song: Light My Candle

[ROGER]

What'd you forget?

[MIMI enters, holding a candle and looking for a match;]
[her electricity is down, too.]

[MIMI]

Got a light?

[ROGER]

I know you? -- You're --
You're shivering

[MIMI]

It's nothing
They turned off my heat
And I'm just a little
Weak on my feet
Would you light my candle?
What are you staring at?

[ROGER]

Nothing
Your hair in the moonlight
You look familiar
[He lights her candle. MIMI starts to leave, but stumbles.]
Can you make it?

[MIMI]

Just haven't eaten much today
At least the room stopped spinning.
Anyway. What?

[ROGER]

Nothing
Your smile reminded me of --

[MIMI]

I always remind people of -- who is she?

[ROGER]

She died. Her name was April

[MIMI discreetly blows out the candle.]

[MIMI]

It's out again
Sorry about your friend
Would you light my candle?

[ROGER lights the candle. They linger, awkwardly.]

[ROGER]

Well --

[MIMI]

Yeah. Ow!

[ROGER]

Oh, the wax -- it's --

[MIMI]

Dripping! I like it -- between my --

[ROGER]

Fingers. I figured...
Oh, well. Goodnight.

[MIMI exits. ROGER heads back toward his guitar on the table.]
[There is another knock, which he answers.]

It blew out again?

[MIMI]

No -- I think that I dropped my stash

[ROGER]

I know I've seen you out and about
When I used to go out
Your candle's out

[MIMI]

I'm illin' --
I had it when I walked in the door
It was pure --
Is it on the floor?

[ROGER]

The floor?

[MIMI gets down on all fours and starts searching]
[the floor for her stash. She lookss back at ROGER,]
[who is staring at her again.]

[MIMI]

They say I have the best *** below 14th street
Is it true?

[ROGER]

What?

[MIMI]

You're staring again.

[ROGER]

Oh no.
I mean you do -- have a nice --
I mean -- You look familiar

[MIMI]

Like your dead girlfriend?

[ROGER]

Only when you smile.
But I'm sure I've seen you somewhere else --

[MIMI]

Do you go to the Cat Scratch Club?
That's where I work - I dance - help me look

[ROGER]

Yes!
They used to tie you up --

[MIMI]

It's a living

[MIMI douses the flame again.]

[ROGER]

I didn't recognize you
Without the handcuffs

[MIMI]

We could light the candle
Oh won't you light the candle?

[ROGER lights it again.]

[ROGER]

Why don't you forget that stuff
You look like you're sixteen

[MIMI]

I'm nineteen -- but I'm old for my age
I'm just born to be bad

[ROGER]

I once was born to be bad
I used to shiver like that

[MIMI]

I have no heat -- I told you

[ROGER]

I used to sweat

[MIMI]

I got a cold

[ROGER]

Uh huh
I used to be a junkie

[MIMI]

But now and then I like to --

[ROGER]

Uh huh

[MIMI]

Feel good

[ROGER]

Here it -- um --

[ROGER stoops and picks up a small object: MIMI's stash.]

[MIMI]

What's that?

[ROGER]

It's a candy bar wrapper

[ROGER puts it behind his back and into his pocket.]

[MIMI]

We could light the candle

[ROGER discreetly blows out the candle.]

[MIMI]

What'd you do with my candle?

[ROGER]

That was my last match

[MIMI]

Our eyes'll adjust, thank God for the moon

[ROGER]

Maybe it's not the moon at all
I hear Spike Lee's shooting down the street

[MIMI]

Bah humbug ... Bah humbug

[MIMI places her hand under his, pretending to do it by accident.]

[ROGER]

Cold hands

[MIMI]

Yours too.
Big. Like my father's
You wanna dance?

[ROGER]

With you?

[MIMI]

No -- with my father

[ROGER]

I'm Roger

[MIMI]

They call me
They call me Mimi

[They come extremely close to a kiss.]
[MIMI reaches into his pocket, nabs the stash,]
[waves it in front of his face, and makes a sexy exit.]

Another Day

Roger
Who do you think you are?
Barging in on me and my guitar

The pain will ease if I can learn

No other road
No other way

We'd be in outer space
It'd be another song
We'd sing another way
You wanna prove me wrong?
Come back another day

"This Akita-Evita just won't shut up
I believe if you play non-stop that pup
Will breathe its very last high-strung breath
I'm certain that cur will bark itself to death"
Today for you - tomorrow for me
Today for you - tomorrow for me
We agreed on a fee - A thousand dollar guarantee
Tax-free - and a bonus if I trim her tree
Now who could foretell that it would go so well
But sure as I am here that dog is now in doggy hell
After an hour - Evita - in all her glory
On the window ledge of that 23rd story
Like Thelma & Louise did when they got the blues
Swan dove into the courtyard of the Gracie Mews
Today for you - tomorrow for me
Today for you - tomorrow for me
Then back to the street where I met my sweet
Where he was moaning and groaning on the cold concrete
The nurse took him home for some mercurochrome
And I dressed his wounds and got him back on his feet
Sing it
Today for you - tomorrow for me
Today for you - tomorrow for me
Today for you - tomorrow for me
Today for you - tomorrow for me
