Alain Boublil - Intoxication Lyrics

[ARMAND]
This intoxication takes my breath away
This agitation fevering the day
I see her now at every turn
Around every corner, she's there, she is waiting
One moment inviting, one moment frustrating
My imagination, fierce and running wild
Infatuation, helpless as a child
Can't tell the darkness from the light
Or my left hand from my right
Does my life begin with her?
Did my life begin that night?
She's a siren, she drowns me in her song
She sings, she sings
And the waters roar and rise
And I am drowning, drowning...

This hallucination, crazy and obsessed
This fascination will not let me rest
She pressed her lips to mine and she
Intoxicated me...

[MARGUERITE]
This intoxication takes me by surprise
This complication fatally unwise
[ARMAND]
(This intoxication)

[MARGUERITE]
Why should I throw it all aside?

[ARMAND]
(How can I ever walk away?)

[Marguerite]
The life that I lead, all the ease that it brings
Where I have all I need at the snap of a finger?

[OTTO]
This intoxication robs me of my mind
Humiliation never far behind

[MARGUERITE]
What became of her? That pretty child?
Whose only dream was just to be a singer?
Why became of her? Did she run wild?
Did she run true? What did life bring her?
Poor girl...

[OTTO]
Easily led and led astray...
[MARGUERITE]
Poor girl...

[OTTO]
Lost her head and lost her way
And today, she needs me more than ever

[MARGUERITE]
I am drunk with him, my senses spin
It's like my life is only just beginning

[MARGUERITE and ARMAND]
This intoxication...

[OTTO]
We are both the same

[ARMAND]
Marguerite

[MARGUERITE]
Armand is his name

[ARMAND]
Marguerite
[OTTO]
We are both to blame...

[ALL]
This intoxication
