Cabaret Soundtrack - "What Would You Do?" lyrics

FRULEIN SCHNEIDER: With the time rushing by, What would you do' What would you do' With the clock running down, Being brave, being sure and free. The young always have the cure: But imagine if you were me. Alone like me And this is the only world I know Some rooms to let, To some other lifetime, even so. What would you do' I'll take your advice, Would you pay the price, What would you do' Suppose simply keeping still, Means you managed until the end. My brave, young friend' What would you do, Grown old like me, With neither there'll be no wish to run. Grown tired like me, For her is forbid when day is done Grown wise like me, Who isn't in war with anyone' What would you do' Not anyone! With the storm in the wind, Suppose you are unafraid and wise, Being told what the choice must be. Go on, tell me... I will listen... What would you do'... If you were me!
