Bitter Sweet the Musical - Dear Little Café Lyrics
Music and lyrics by Noël Coward.
CARL:
We share a mutual ambition
Which naught can disarrange,
SARI:
Based on the hopeful supposition
That soon our luck will change.
CARL:
Though we very often wonder whether
Poverty will win the day,
SARI:
Just as long as we remain together
Troubles seem to fade away.
BOTH:
However hard the bed one lies on
The same old dreams begin,
We're always scanning the horizon
For when our ship comes in.
We'll have a sweet little cafk
In a neat little square,
We'll find our fortune
And our happiness there.
CARL:
We shall thrive on the vain and resplendent
SARI:
And contrive to remain independent.
CARL:
We'll have a meek reputation
And a chic clientue,
SARI:
Kings will fall under our spell.
BOTH:
We'll be so zealous
That the world will be jealous
Of our sweet little in a square.
SARI :
Can you imagine our sensations
When we've security?
CARL:
And all our dreary deprivations
Are just a memory.
SARI:
Though we're very often driven frantic,
Peace is very hard to find.
CARL:
All these dreacbl days will seem romantic
When we've left them far behind.
BOTH:
Fate needn't be quite such a dragon,
He knows how tired we are.
We'llhitch our hopeful little wagon
Onto a lucky star.
CARL:
We'll have a sweet little d 6
In a neat little square,
SARI:
We'llfind our fortune
And our happiness there,
CARL:
We shall thrive on the vain and resplendent
SARI:
And contrive to remain independent.
CARL:
We'll have a meek reputation
And a chic diendle,
SARI:
Kings will fall under our spell.
BOTH:
We'll be so zealous
That the world will be jealous
Of our sweet little cafb in a square.
