Come What May
Moulin Rouge [Original Montion Picture Soundtrack] Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Christian
Never knew I could feel like this
Like I've never seen the sky before
Want to vanish inside your kiss
Every day I love you more and more
Listen to my heart, can you hear it sing?
Telling me to give you everything
Seasons may change, winter to spring
But I love you until the end of time

Come what may, come what may
I will love you until my dying day

Satine
Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place
Suddenly it moves with such a perfect grace

Both
Suddenly my life doesn't seem such a waste

Satine
It all revolves around you

Both
And there's no mountain too high, no river too wide
Sing out this song, and I'll be there by your side
Storm clouds may gather, and stars may collide
But I love you (I love you)
Until the end of time

Come what may, come what may
I will love you until my dying day
Oh, come what may, come what may
I will love you (I will love you)
Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place





Come what may, come what may
I will love you until my dying day
