Helena: Ceylon...Ceylon By the Bengal Bay, Neville: East of Jaipur, West of Mandalay! Helena & Neville: Agra...Patna... Sholapur and Kolhapur and all, Helena: How far they are From the High Street and the Market Hall Drood: It's all very well for you To speak of this distant view, But Rosa what's planned for me Is grander than sand and sea! This vista that's in my sight Where I'll set the world alright Awaits me... It dominates me. Drood: It's perfectly fine for them To sing of their minor gem, But there is a role for me, A goal I intend to see, A vision that's clean and Bright before me - You cannot ignore me I will soon be Shaping and molding, Holding fortune in my hand And I'll improve and Shake and move and Change the very Nature of the land Helena & Neville: Ceylon...Ceylon Cross the Injun Seas T'wards the Fjords of Thornaby-on-Tees Typhoons Monsoons, Break upon the Coast of Malabar! Quaking, Shaking, Change the way you are, hey! Helena, Neville, & Ensemble: Ceylon, Ceylon By the Bengal Bay, East of Jaipur, West of Mandalay! Helena: How warm are the winds of our Golden Isle! Neville: How cool are their words and how cold is their smile! Both: They wish us gone! We'll be back someday Ceylon! Drood, Jasper & Ensemble: They've become a throat straight from Ceylon. All: Sail on to Ceylon! Hey! Back to main page: Mystery Of Edwin Drood, The Lyrics
