A Romantic Musical
Love Never Dies the Musical - Dear Old Friend Lyrics
CHRISTINE
Slow down Gustave!
There are people working here, be careful!
GUSTAVE
But I want to find Mr.Y!
And go see the island!
CHRISTINE
I'm sure he'll send for you when he's ready.
RAOUL
Who is this Mr. Y?
What does he do-apart from spend ludicrous amounts of money
on light entertainment?
GUSTAVE
Father! Look over there!
RAOUL
Gustave slow down!
MEG
Heaven help me could it be?
No it couldn't possibly
CHRISTINE
Sorry do I...
MEG
Yes I think you do.
CHRISTINE
Have we...
MEG
Go on take a guess
CHRISTINE
Wait it can't be is it...
MEG
Yes!
CHRISTINE
Oh my god I can't believe it's you!
MEG
Look at you, Christine.
Regal as a queen and beautiful
CHRISTINE
Meg, and you as well I could hardly tell it's you
BOTH
My dear old friend
Can't believe you're here, old friend
CHRISTINE
After all this time
MEG
Christine you came
You look sublime
CHRISTINE
You look the same
BOTH
My sweet old friend.
Never thought we'd meet, old friend
CHRISTINE
What of your career?
MEG
Everything's great
BOTH
And isn't fate a splendid thing?
CHRISTINE
It brought me here
MEG
To see the sights?
CHRISTINE
And sing
GIRY
You!
RAOUL
My god, it's you!
GIRY
It can't be true
RAOUL
Is this a dream?
It's been ten years!
GIRY
What brings you here?
RAOUL
What do you think?
Christine
She's here to sing
GIRY
I read the news
For Hammerstein?
RAOUL
No plans have changed
He's been outbid
GIRY
Outbid by whom?
RAOUL
The contract's here
It's rather strange
MEG
Sorry, did I hear you right?
Here to sing
CHRISTINE
Tomorrow night
MEG
That seems odd there must be some mistake
That's the leading lady slot
I've been booked
CHRISTINE
Oh surely not...
MEG
This was meant to be my lucky break
CHRISTINE
Look I hardly sing
Just one little thing
An aria
MEG
Christine it's a thrill
Just to share the bill with you
MEG/GIRY
My dear old friend
It's becoming clear old friend
Someone's overlooked
His leading act
RAOUL
Well double-booked
To be exact
Now my old friend
Can you clarify old friend
This Mr. Y
With whom we signed
Who hides behind the pseudonym
GIRY
You haven't guessed?
RAOUL
I've no idea
GIRY
It's him
RAOUL
It's him?
GIRY
That's what I said
RAOUL
You work for him?
GIRY
Now you do too
RAOUL
My poor wife, we thought him dead
She'll be appalled
GIRY
Unless she knew
CHRISTINE
Darling, please, are you alright?
RAOUL
Tell me now, this music, who was its creator?
CHRISTINE
Darling, please don't squeeze so tight
RAOUL
Something's going on here, I'll deal with you later
MEG
What's this about?
GIRY
I wish I knew
GIRY/RAOUL
The truth will out before we're through
ALL
My dear old friends
Can't believe your here old friends
GIRY
My dear Christine
MEG
My dear Vicomte
CHRISTINE
What does this mean?
RAOUL
What does he want?
ALL
My grand old friend
I don't understand old friend
MEG/GIRY
Maybe it's a joke
CHRISTINE/RAOUL
Some silly game
ALL
And what his aim is in the end
I can't pretend to comprehend old friend
MEG
It isn't fair
GIRY
We need to think
CHRISTINE
I need some air
RAOUL
I need a drink
ALL
My bold old friend(?)
Isn't this abhorred old friend
CHRISTINE
I'm still amazed
MEG
I'm still confused
GIRY
I'm feeling dazed
RAOUL
I'm feeling used
ALL
And yet old friend
Let's not get upset old friend
GIRY
We can sort this out
RAOUL
I'm sure we will
MEG
Without a doubt
ALL
Because we're still
Such grand old friends
Such devoted and old friends
Back again (at last)
When everyone (is doing great)
Won't this be fun? (so much fun)
With two old friends
Just able with two old friends (?)
GIRY
Let us raise a glass
CHRISTINE
To times gone by
RAOUL
To Mr. Y
MEG
To happy ends
ALL
To such sincere
And very dear old friends
Old friends!
RAOUL
No offense, but I need something stronger.
Madame I shall see you tomorrow night at the concert,
where I am sure you will both surpass yourselves. Good day.
CHRISTINE
Raoul, please! I can explain!
I'm sorry...look I wonder would you mind....Gustave!
MEG
What is it?
CHRISTINE
My son! He was with...Gustave! Gustave!
MEG
Christine wait!
