           Yeah, I always thought the title was "My Heart Is Hurting", too.   
      
      
                Hearts are Hurting   
      
   Xena   
   My heart is hurting beyond words   
   The pain is tearing up my soul   
   These days have seen my spirits die   
   My life propelled out of control   
   My wounds lie naked to the world   
   My depth of suffering exposed   
   This damaged past can never heal   
   Until this nightmare book is closed   
      
   Gabrielle   
   My heart is hurting beyond words   
   The pain is tearing up my soul   
   Please tell me how can I retrieve   
   the life that all this sadness stole   
   Because of you this happened   
   Because you had to carry out   
   your vengeful little plans   
      
   Xena   
   It's you who should feel guilty   
   Because of you my child is dead   
   His blood is on your hands   
      
   Gabrielle   
   If only you had never brought me there   
      
   Xena   
   If only you had done what you were told   
      
   Gabrielle   
   If's you who's to be blamed   
      
   Xena   
   And you should be ashamed   
      
   Gabrielle   
   It's your fault!   
      
   Xena   
   No it's yours!   
      
   Gabrielle   
   How could you?   
      
   Xena   
   How could you?

   grabbed Gabrielle' foot.]   
      
     I always had a problem with the verse "Until this nightmare book is   
   closed". Since there were only scrolls back then, I always thought a better   
   line would have been "Until this nightmare door is closed."   
      
           And why didn't Xena sing, "Because of you my son is dead"  instead   
   of ''my child is dead' ?   
      
           I also thought that instead of Gabrielle saying, "If only you had   
   never brought me there",   she should  have sung "If only you never took me   
   there".  Seems to me that 'brought' means to "bring here'  rather than 'take   
   there'.   
      
            Renee's voice was overdubbed by Susan Wood from NZ.

           Although she was uncredited for 'Bitter Suite', she also sang for   
   Renee in 'Lyre, Lyre Hearts on Fire' ('War', 'Getting' Ready' and 'People   
   Got To Be Free')
