Sunset Boulevard the Musical - Too Much in Love to Care Lyrics

"Too Much in Love to Care" is a song from Sunset Boulevard the musical performed by Siobhan Dillon (Betty) and Michael Xavier (Joe).

BETTY (spoken)
I had a telegram from Artie

JOE (spoken)
Is something wrong?

BETTY (spoken)
He wants me to come out to Tennessee.
He says it would only cost 2 dollars to get married in Clinch

JOE (spoken)
Well, what's stopping you!
Now we've finished the script - Hey, why are you crying?
You're getting married, isn't that what you wanted?

BETTY (spoken)
Not any more

JOE (spoken)
Don't you love Artie?

BETTY (spoken)
Of course I do.
I'm just not in love with him any more, that's all

JOE (spoken)
Why not? What happened?

BETTY  (spoken)
You did

BETTY
When I was a kid, I played on this street
I always loved illusion
I thought make-believe was truer than life
But now it's all confusion
Please, can you tell me what's happening?
I just don't know anymore
If this is real, how should I feel?
What should I look for?

JOE
If you were smart, you would keep on walking
Out of my life as fast as you can
I'm not the one you should pin your hopes on
You're falling for the wrong kind of man
This is crazy! You know we should call it a day
Sound advice, great advice
Let's throw it away

I can't control all the things I'm feeling
I haven't got a prayer
If I'm a fool, well
I'm too much in love to care

I knew where I was, I'd given up hope
Made friends with disillusion
No one in my life, but I look at you
And now it's all confusion

BETTY
Please, can you tell me what's happening?
I just don't know anymore
If this is real, how should I feel?
What should I look for?

I thought I had everything I needed
My life was set, my dreams were in place
My heart could see way into the future
All of that goes when I see your face

I should hate you
There I was, the world in my hand
Can one kiss, kiss away
Everything I planned?

I can't control all the things I'm feeling
I'm floating in mid-air
I know it's wrong, but,
I'm too much in love to care

JOE & BETTY
I thought I had everything I needed
My life was set, my dreams were in place
My heart could see way into the future
All of that goes when I see your face
This is crazy! You know we should call it a day

JOE
Sound advice

BETTY
Great advice

JOE & BETTY
Let's throw it away...
I can't control all the things I'm feeling
We're floating in mid-air
If we are fools, well,
We're too much in love to care
If we are fools, well,
We're too much in love to care!
