Aida - Not Me

Not Me from the Broadway musical Aida, with music and lyrics by Tim Rice and Elton John. I do not own anything. All rights belong to Tim Rice, Elton John, and Universal Distribution.
Radames:
I once knew all the answers
I stood on certain ground
A picture of true happiness
Confidence so effortless
No brighter could be found
Mereb:
Oh No
Radames:
I never asked the questions
That trouble me today
I knew all there was to know
Love worn lightly
Put on show
My conquests on display (Mereb:I can't believe He's changing)
And who'd have thought that (Mereb:Oh, no)
Confidence could die?
Not me , Not me (Mereb:Not me, not me)
That all I took for granted was a lie
Not me, Not me
And who'd have guessed
I'd throw my world away
To be with someone I'm afraid will say (Mereb:This can never)
Not me,not me (Mereb:Be)
Mereb:
He's in love
But he's not the only one
Who'll be changed
Aida:
I shall not envy lovers
But long for what they share
Amneris:
An empty room is merciless
Don't be surprised if I confess
I need some comfort there
Aida and Amneris:
And who'd have thought
That love could be so good?
Not me, not me
And show me things I never understood
Not me, not me
Who'd have guessed he'd
Throw his world away
To be with someone til his dying day
Not me, not me
Radames, Amneris,Aida:
And who'd have thought that love
Could be so good
Not me, not me (Mereb:Not me, not me)
My/his secrets &
My/his passions understood
Not me, not me (Mereb:Not me, not me)
Who'd have guessed
I'd/ he throw My/his world away
To be with someone til my/his dying day
Not me/not me (Mereb:This can never be)

[@thatonegirlgamer3772]

my musical theatre class is doing songs from Aida and when I first heard the music I instantly fell in love with this musical it's truly a master piece

[@wengu6975]

Elton John can make any lyric sounds good

[@barron8180]

i saw this when i was 7 and haven't seen it since i miss it they should put more musicals on dvds

[@manuelorozco7760]

I was 7 when Aida made it's debut on Broadway 17 years ago

[@Sodapop-gi4bu]

This entire score is soooooooo Elton John I mean yeah he did write the music but from the intro to the melodies his work is written all over it

[@derekdunn4771]

I came back to listen after my school did this musical over a year ago and I'm trying so hard not to cry

[@laurafall7846]

Saw this at the Buell Theater here in Denver. I loved it so much. I wish they made a DVD of it! Beautiful soundtrack!!!

[@Batou3]

Im so sad i wasn't old enough to see this

[@manuelorozco7760]

I know how you feel. I was 7 when the show made it's debut on Broadway and I wasn't into theatre back then. Plus, I never gone to New York City before.

[@Mrnickstr89]

The show is getting a revival next year at the Papermill Playhouse and then is going on a national tour! So hopefully you might get the chance to see it!

[@flanplan5903]

Me too. I was only a year old when it opened on Broadway, and was 5 when it closed.

[@manuelorozco7760]

[@christinalucas1002]
