A little shy
And sad of eyes
But very wise was he
And then one day
One magic day, he passed my
way
And as we spoke of many things
Fools and kings
This is he said to me
The greatest thing
You'll ever learn
Is just to love
And be loved in return
Christian:
The Moulin Rouge, a night
club, a dance hall and a bordello. Ruled over by Harold Zidler, a
kingdom of nightime pleasures where the rich and powerful came to play
with the young and beautiful creatures of the underworld. The most
beautiful of all these was the woman I loved, Satine. A cortisan,
she sold her love to men. They called her the sparkling diamond,
and she was the star of the Moulin Rouge. The woman I loved is dead.
I first came to Paris one year ago.
