jerry bock - dear friend lyrics

[amalia]
the flowers, the linen
the crystal i see
were carefully chosen for people like me
the silver a gleam and the candles a glow
your favorite songs on request
each colorful touch in the finest of taste
and notice how subtly the tables are sp-ced
the music is muted
the lighting is low
no wonder i feel so depressed
charming, romantic, the perfect cafe
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

[headwaiter, spoken]
we’re closing up

[amalia, spoken]
so soon?

[headwaiter, spoken]
it looks like your friend didn’t get here

[amalia, spoken]
i’m sure there’s a very good reason

[headwaiter, spoken]
then he’ll write to you, and you can patch it up, and i hope you’ll be very happy

[amalia, spoken]
oh, thank you!

(sung)
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
