Tarzan - The Broadway Musical Soundtrack – No Other Way lyrics

Album: Tarzan - The Broadway Musical

Kerchak:

My worst fear
I hold it now
I always knew that this would happen
Though he’s a child it’s in his blood
And he will grow

So now it’s clear what I must do
I know too well what he’ll become
For as long as I draw breath
I’ll remember

Kala:

Where’s Tarzan?
Where is he?

Kerchak:

No turning back
What’s done is done
I have seen what they can do
He can’t be saved by you, by me
It’s too late

Kala:

No, I won’t let you do this
How can you think’d

Kerchak:

No more fighting I’ll be obeyed
I’ll stand my ground
Don’t tear defining
I know his kind
I know the truth
I will protect us

No other way
Open your eyes
It’s there to see
No other way
He’s not one of us
And never will be

Kala:

Just listen to me

Kerchak:

No more to say
He is what he is
And that won’t change
There’s no other way
I’m leaving him here
And here he’ll stay

Kala:

He’s just a child

Kerchak:

He was up in the trees
Making a weapon
And in time it is us
He will hurt

Kala:

No

Kerchak:

Nothing and no one
Will stop him becoming
What he is
And was my fiend

No other way
He will come between me
And those I loved
Believe me when I say
With my body and soul
This I vow

No, no other way
And in spite of your pain
It will be done
No matter what you say
He never was or will be
Be my son
There is no other way

I won’t let him near
The rest of my tribe again

Kala:

I understand

Kerchak:

Where are you going?

Kala:

To find him
We’ll live away from the family

Kerchak:

For how long?

Kala:

For as long as he needs me

Kerchak:

You can’t
I won’t be able to protect you
Kala don’t do this please

Kala:

Kerchak I am his mother

Kerchak:

No other way
I should have done this before
Long ago
And from today
They will think of me cruel
They won’t know
There was no other way.
