    Default Never To Die - Dracula Musical

    The song is from the Original Cast Recording by Christopher J. Orton.
    I couldn't find the lyrics for this song so I did what I could to find out what it says. Since that english isn't my first language I had difficulties with some parts that i couldn't recognize.
    This is what I got until now. If someone could help to correct it and knows what I missed I would appreciate it a lot.

    Just out of reach
    Always too far
    Never to know the lives i have claimed
    No care who they are
    This possessions
    Mire possessions
    Who i am to enjoy?
    There's no feeling
    When i'm stealing
    The blood of the lives i destroy

    Just out of reach
    Always too late
    ¿?
    I won't hesitate
    For the moment
    For an instant
    When a heart beats his last
    Fleating by me
    To deny me
    The life I once knew in the past

    What a glorius life
    In a time that i'm gone
    When the name of Dracul was respected and fear
    But the world has moved on
    And the prince who commanded with pride
    Became the leach these mortals previle
    Existing by night
    Denied to the light
    Never to die

    I suffer in so denied intercession
    Condemned to exist for all time
    An infernal creation
    That has no salvation
    Eternally doom for his crime
    I'm a parasite
    Cursed forever by a path I choosed to defy
    Existing by night
    Denied to the light
    Never to die

    She is the prize
    The trofy to win
    This is the hour when she becomes mine
    And her heart lets me in
    When I founded her
    When she founded me
    Then my world came alive
    In that moment
    In that instant
    I felt a new purpose arrive

    For the blood is the life
    And her life will be cursed
    She really earn to escape her damnation in death
    That can not be reversed
    But this beautiful bride will be mine
    By a trap of my depths to desing¿?
    Togheter at last
    My lovely ¿dispose?
    She will be mine
    Existing by night
    Denied to the light
    Never to die

    Here's the lyric in English:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RENMHVkLycQ

    (Music - Christopher Orton & Ian Lynn. Lyrics - Gareth Evans. Sung by Michael McCarthy).

    NEVER TO DIE

    Just out of reach
    Always too far
    Never to know the lives I have claimed
    Nor care who they are
    These possessions
    Mere possessions
    Who are mine to enjoy
    There's no feeling
    When I'm stealing
    The blood of the lives I destroy.

    Just out of reach
    Always too late
    Life's treasured gift to lose me again
    And won't hesitate
    For a moment
    For an instant
    When a heart beats it's last
    Fleeting by me
    To deny me
    The life I once knew in the past.

    What a glorious Life
    In a time dead and gone
    When the name of Dracul was respected and feared
    But the world has moved on
    And the Prince who commanded with gile
    Became the leech these mortals revile
    Existing by night
    Denied to the light
    Never to die.

    A suffering soul denied its ascension
    Condemned to exist for all time
    An infernal creation
    That has no salvation
    Eternally damned for its crime
    I'm a parasite
    Cursed forever by a God I choose to defy
    Existing by night -
    Denied to the light -
    Never to die.

    She is the prize
    The trophy to win
    This is the hour when she becomes mine
    And her heart lets me in
    When I found her
    When she found me
    Then my world came alive
    In that moment
    In that instant
    I felt a new purpose arrive

    For the blood is the life
    And her life will be cursed
    She will yearn to escape her damnation in death
    That can not be reversed
    But this beautiful prize will be mine
    By a trap of my vengeful design
    Together at last
    My loneliness past -
    She will be mine
    Existing by night
    Denied to the light
    Never to die.

    Here's a fabulous video of 'Within My World' from the same musical:

    Michael McCarthy played Javert in the UK production of 'Les Miserables' - I loved his version of 'Stars'....... (Philip Quast was brilliant too)....
