- WRITTEN IN THE STARS Lyrics AIDA I am here to tell you we can never meet again Simple really, isn't it, a word or two and then A lifetime of not knowing where or how or why or when You think of me or speak of me and wonder what befell That someone you once loved so long ago so well RADAMES Never wonder what I'll feel as living shuffles by You don't have to ask me and I need not reply Every moment of my life from now until I die I will think or dream of you and fail to understand How a perfect love can be confounded out of hand Is it written in the stars Are we paying for some crime Is that all that we are good for Just a stretch of mortal time Or some God's experiment In which we have no say In which we're given paradise But only for a day AIDA Marry the Princess, Radames. You can help my people. This could be our chance to do something important. Don't you see? It may be the whole reason we met. RADAMES Then it would be a cruel trick! AIDA Not if the Gods put us together for some greater purpose. Nothing can be altered, there is nothing to decide No escape, no change of heart, nor anyplace to hide RADAMES You are all I'll ever want, but this I am denied Sometimes in my darkest thoughts, I wish I'd never learned AIDA & RADAMES What it is to be in love and have that love returned AIDA Is it written in the stars Are we paying for some crime Is that all that we are good for Just a stretch of mortal time AIDA & RADAMES For some God's experiment In which we have no say In which we're given paradise But only for a day RADAMES I will do what you ask of me. But you must also do something for me. Go home, leave Egypt forever. AIDA What are you saying? RADAMES While I am taking my wedding vows, there will be a boat waiting for you at the docks to return you to Nubia. At least I will have a message of happiness knowing you are free. (RADAMES kisses AIDA one last time and leaves. AIDA looks to the sky... knowing her gods have provided a way. The irony of it nearly breaks her in two. She exits in the opposite direction. AMNERIS emerges from the shadows. She has seen everything.)
