Lyrics: Soundtrack Artists. Amneris' Dressing Room.

AMNERIS is dressed for her wedding by four handmaidens. They present her with
a fantastic wedding gown. She stands lifeless, still reeling from the shock
of what she witnessed.

Why do I want him still?
Why when there's nothing there?
How to go on with the rest of my life
To pretend I don't care

This should've been my time
It's over-It never began
I closed my eyes to so much for so long
and I no longer can

I try to blame it on fortune

Some kind of twist in my fate
But I know the truth and it haunts me
I learned it a little too late

Oh I know the truth and it mocks me
I know the truth and it shocks me
I learned it a little too late
Too late

(AMNERIS is now fully dressed and stands there like a painted life-sized doll.)
