Dracula on Broadway
FAIR DISGUISE
MINA
What is this staggering attraction
My heart's begun to race
How can his gaze be so familiar
When I've never seen his face?
His eyes recall a melody,
A song I can't forget
And yet I'm too ashamed to play -
I must forget such thoughts,
But still I feel I know his face
JONATHAN
There is danger here
A wolf in fair disguise
Menacing and deep
Something black that lies
Beneath a pleasing shape -
To feel such hate
For him. an unfamiliar face.
Mina, love, be true.
LUCY
How I race, how a fever fills my mind
Fire's trace, such a light it leaves me blind
I know my fate is hopelessly entwined with his
Fear grips my soul
With icy control
Yet desire beats there too
And somehow I know I'll rue
This day
Faintly fighting for my life
Stolen by this handsome face
[MINA, LUCY, JONATHAN - TOGETHER]
MINA

When I've never seen his face?
His eyes recall a melody,
A song I can't forget
And yet I'm too ashamed to play -
I must forget such thoughts,
But still I feel I know his face
JONATHAN

To feel such hate

Mina, love, be true.
LUCY
How I race, how a fever fills my mind
Fire's trace, such a light it leaves me blind
I know my fate is hopelessly entwined with his
Fear grips my soul
With icy control
Yet desire beats there too
And somehow I know I'll rue
This day
Faintly fighting for my life
Stolen by this handsome face
[Jonathan, Mina and Lucy are all nervous, standing at various parts of the
room.
At conclusion
of last portion of song, Lucy faints. General mayhem.]
