作曲 : Jerry Bock/Sheldon Harnick
Amalia:
The flowers,the linen,
the crystal I see.
Were carefully chosen for people like me.
The silver agleam and the candles aglow,
you favorite songs on request.
Each colorful touch in the finest of taste.
And notice how subtly the tables are spaced.
The music is muted,
the lighting is low.
No wonder I feel so,
Depressed.
Charming, romantic,
the perfect café.
Then as if it isn’t bad enough a violin starts to play.
Candles and wine,
tables for two,
but where are you,dear friend?
Couples go past me,
I see how they look.
So discreetly sympathetic when they see the rose,
and the book.
I make believe nothing is wrong.
How long can I pretend?
Please,make it right.
Don’t break my heart!
Don't let it end,
dear friend.
Manager:We’re closing up.
Amalia:So soon?
Manager:It looks your friend didn’t get here.
Amalia:I’m sure there’s a very good reason.
Manager:Then he’ll write to you,
and you can patch it up.
And I hope you’ll be very happy.
Amalia:Oh,thank you.
Amalia:
I make believe nothing is wrong.
How long can I pretend?
Please,make it right.
Don’t break my heart!
Don't let it end,
dear friend.
