Woman Lyricsby Original Broadway Cast. From Pirate Queen Woman by Original Broadway Cast [GRANIA] Woman I am born What does "woman" mean? Must my dreams face scorn Held back and unseen If I long for fire Must it stay unreal? Can I not desire? Am I not to feel? If I ache to taste Am I not to try? If my heart says sail Why should I deny? I have my dreams I have made plans I see horizons wide as a man's Must I be nothing till I'm some man's wife? Look at this face Does it deceive? Do I look made to milk and to weave? I will be damned to Hell if that is my life! [GRANIA] (spoken) Blasphemy--I know, forgive me! But I won't take it back! I won't! [TIERNAN] (spoken) I understand you! Somehow I never pictured you knitting. [GRANIA] I'm almost your age, I'm your match in size, I'm as skilled with swords And equal in most eyes But when you have a dream And you're caught in its grip You can climb aboard a ship You can - You can for you're a man! You can reach toward that place Where the earth meets the sky Fight a battle be brave, be true If you can do it, why not I? I'm meant to fly Sail unrestrained Why is man free and woman chained? Is that my epitaph before I die? I should be free Free to be Grace So I can feel the wind on my face! And when life beckons, I should go Face out the storm, not stay below Am I to be just woman? No! Not I! [Thanks to Chris, Jess for lyrics] [Thanks to Megan for corrections]
