What is the title and the artist of this song? It is from Moulin Rouge?

I am trying to identify the title and artist of a song from the movie Moulin Rouge. The lyrics include:

“Why does my heart cry,
Feelings I can't fight,
You're free to leave me,
But please don’t deceive me,
And please believe me when I say,
I love you.”

This song plays during the scene with "Roxanne." I noticed that every other song in the movie features a different artist, so I suspect this one might as well. Could anyone help me with this?

And the tango that’s merged into the Roxanne music is “Tanguera” – there’s a version performed by Mariano Mores Y Orquesta that’s available on an album called “Café De Los Maestros”

” El Tango De Roxanne” by Ewan McGregor, Jose Feliciano and Jacek Koman lyrics. The contemporary song intro to this piece is Sting’s “Roxanne”.

"Why does my heart cry,

Feelings i can't fight,

You're free to leave me

But please don't deceive me and

please believe me when i say

I love you"

It's during when Roxanne is playing. Every other song in that movie is from another artist, I figure this one has another…

I’m 99.9% sure the lyrics are unique to the film but the melody it’s sung to is Tanguera by Mariano Mores.

from what i know and can find, those lyrics are just part of the movie and are stuck in there with the song Roxanne. they are original lyrics of the movie, not by another artist.

It is called El Tango De Roxanne sang by Ewan McGregor(:

Roxanne

will drive you will drive you will drive you…mad

Roxanne

You don`t have to put on that red light

Walk the streets for money

You don`t care if it`s wrong or if it is right

Roxanne

You don`t have to wear that dress tonight

Roxanne

You don`t have to sell your body to the night

His eyes upon your face

His hand upon your hand

His lips caress your skin

It`s more than I can stand

(Roxanne)

Why does my heart cry?

(Roxanne)

Feelings I can`t fight

You`re free to leave me, but just don`t deceive me

And please believe me when I say I love you

Yo que te quiero tanto, qu voy ha hacer

Me dejaste, me dejaste

En un tango

En el alma se me fue

Se me fue el corazon

Ya no tengo ganas de vivir

Porque no te puedo convencer

Que no te vendas Roxanne

(Roxanne)

Why does my heart cry?

(Roxanne)

Feelings I can`t fight

(Roxanne)

You don`t have to put on that red light

Roxanne

(Roxanne)

(Roxanne)
