Lyrics

[FESTE] I can tell you anything, my friend Except how I feel about you 'cause I know you don't return it Though ain't it obvious, my friend I'm not myself around you But I like who I am turning into 'cause I'm missing parts of me But when I'm with you, I feel put back together And I know I shouldn't say it But baby, why don't you see it? Is this not love? Is this not love that I feel for you? Do you feel it too? Is this not love? Is this not love that we're feeling? Is this not love? [ORSINO, spoken] Once more, Cesario Get thee to yon same sovereign cruelty Tell her my love [VIOLA, spoken] But if she cannot love you, sir? [ORSINO, spoken] I cannot be so answered [FESTE] I'm despondence dressed like confidence A lamb in lion's clothes I wanna hold you so bad And I'm not the one you chose But sometimes your eyes catch mine And I dare think it Oh I think you know it Is this not love? Is this not love that I feel for you? Do you feel it too? Is this not love? Is this not love that we're feeling? Is this not love? [VIOLA, spoken] Say that some lady, as perhaps there is Hath for your love as great a pang of heart As you have for Olivia: you cannot love her; You tell her so; must she not then be answered? [ORSINO, spoken] Make no compare Between that love a woman can bear me And that I owe Olivia [VIOLA, spoken] Ay, but I know-- [ORSINO, spoken] What dost thou know? [VIOLA, spoken] Too well what love women to men may owe: In faith, they are as true of heart as we My father had a daughter loved a man As it might be, perhaps, were I woman I should your lordship [ORSINO, spoken] And what's her history? [VIOLA, spoken] She never told her love She pined in thought And with a green and yellow melancholy She sat like patience on a monument Smiling at grief Was not this love indeed? [ORSINO, spoken] But died thy sister of her love, my boy? [VIOLA, spoken] I know not [FESTE] Will I die without saying a thing? Will I wait here for years silently? Or will I risk it all Lay bare my heart And say it baby Oh, I gotta say it baby Is this not love? Is this not love that I feel for you? Oh, I know you feel it too Is this not love? Is this not love that we're feeling We're feeling I know we're feeling it, yeah Is this not love? Is this not love? Is this not love? Is this not [VIOLA, spoken] Sir, shall I to this lady? [ORSINO, spoken] To her in haste Give her this jewel (Exit VIOLA) [ORSINO, spoken] (offering a coin to the FESTE) There's for thy pains [FESTE, spoken] (Refusing the coin) No pains, sir. I take pleasure in it
