Song lyrics
First there is desire 
Then... passion! 
Then... suspicion! 
Jealosy! Anger! Betrayel! 
Where love is for the highest bidder, 
There can be no trust. 
Without trust,. 
There is no love! 
Jealosy. 
Yes, jealosy... 
Will drive you (echos) 

MAD!

Roxanne 
You don't have to put on that red light 
Walk the streets for money 
You don't care if it's wrong or if it is right 

Roxanne 
You don't have to wear that dress tonight 
Roxanne 
You don't have to sell your body to the night 

(Christian, Ewan McGregor)
His eyes upon your face 
His hand upon your hand 
His lips caress your skin 
It's more than I can stand 

(Roxanne) 
Why does my heart cry? 
(Roxanne) 
Feelings I can't fight 
You're free to leave me, but just don't deceive me 
And please believe me when I say I love you 

Yo que te quiero tanto, qué voy a hacer 
Me dejaste, me dejaste 
En un tango 
El alma se me fue 
Se me fue el corazon 
Ya no tengo ganas de vivir 
Porque no te puedo convencer 
Que no te vendas Roxanne 

(Roxanne, you don't have to put on that red light) 
Why does my heart cry? 
(Roxanne, you don't have to wear that dress tonight) 
Feelings I can't fight 
(Roxanne, you don't have to put on that red light) 
(Roxanne, you don't have to wear that dress tonight)
Roxanne (screaming)
Roxanne (screaming) 
Roxanne

That movie just plain ROCKS. Nicole kidman is brilliant.

But all her songs I had to take up an octave, cause she's at most a mezzo soprano, and I can't hit half of the low notes. Poo.

i think ewan mcgregor is one of the best singers in the world. he just belts stuff out and he's ALWAYS on key. it's amazing.

This song is the best (musically) in the entire movie. Being a musician (violinist) myself, I was in awe of the violin solo in this song. IT IS AMAZING! Being such a music nerd.... this song is awesome to me.

On another note.... the entire movie rocks! Your Song (Ewan McGregor) is better than the original. PLUS I FELL IN LOVE WITH HIM AFTER THIS MOVIE CAME OUT!

a great, strong song. and still so weak.
have to admit, for me this part of the movie felt the most touching. I didn't dare to start weeping there when I was watching the movie from video with my friend, but it was close...

and so i decided to buy the soundtrack of moulin rouge... it is great! full of touching songs.

anybody of you happen to like the other song from the movie, Complainte de la Butte? i love it.
