Out There (From "Hunchback of Notre Dame")

Out There - The Hit Crew

Safe behind these windows and these parapets of stone

Gazing at the people down below me

All my life I wonder how it feels to pass a day

Not above them

But part of them

And out there

Where they all live unaware

What I'd give

What I'd dare

Just to live one day out there

Out there among the millers and the weavers and their wives

Through the roofs and gables I can see them

Ev'ry day they shout and scold and go about their lives

Heedless of the gift it is to be them

If I was in their skin

I'd treasure ev'ry instant

Out there

Strolling by the Seine

Taste a morning out there

Just one day and then

I swear I'll be content

With my share

Won't resent

Won't despair

Old and bent

I won't care

I'll have spent

One day

Out there
