Lyrics

0:00作曲 : Andrew Lloyd Webber
0:00作词 : Christopher Hampton/Don Black
0:02NORMA: Joe! Joe!
1:16JOE: Come on in
1:19BETTY: What's going on, Joe?
1:22Why am I so scared?
1:26What was that woman saying?
1:31She sounded so weird
1:34I don't understand
1:37Please, can you tell me what's happening?
1:41You said you loved me tonight
1:46Shall I just go?
1:48Say something, Joe
1:49JOE: Have some pink champagne and caviar
1:51When you go visit with a star
1:54The hospitality is stellar
1:54BETTY: So this is where you're living?
1:57JOE: Yes, it's quite a place, sleeps seventeen
2:00Eight sunken tubs, a movie screen
2:02A bowling alley in the cellar
2:02BETTY: I didn't come to see a house, Joe
2:03JOE: Sunset Boulevard, cruise the Boulevard
2:08Win yourself a Hollywood palazzo
2:13Sunset Boulevard, mythic Boulevard
2:17Valentino danced on that terrazzo
2:20BETTY: Who's it belong to?
2:22JOE: Just look around you
2:21BETTY: That's Norma Desmond
2:22JOE: Right on the money
2:24That's Norma Desmond. That's Norma Desmond
2:27That's Norma Desmond. That's Norma Desmond
2:29BETTY: Why did she call me?
2:28JOE: Give you three guesses
2:30It's the oldest story in the book
2:31Come see the taker being took
2:34The world is full of Joes and Normas
2:38Older woman, very well-to-do
2:42Meets younger man, the standard cue
2:44For two mechanical performers
2:44BETTY: Just pack your things and let's go
2:45JOE: You mean all my things?
2:47Have you gone mad?
2:48Leave all these things I've never had?
2:51Leave this luxurious existence?
2:54You want me to face that one-room hell
2:57That Murphy bed, that rancid smell
2:58Go back to living on subsistence?
3:01It's no time to begin a new life
3:05Now I've finally made a perfect landing
3:09I'm afraid there's no room for a wife
3:11Not unless she's uniquely understanding
3:14You should go back to Artie and marry the fool
3:16And you'll always be welcome to swim in my pool
3:23BETTY: I can't look at you any more, Joe
3:44(BETTY leaves)
4:22NORMA: Thank you. Thank you, Joe! Thank you! Thank you.
5:03What are you doing, Joe? You're not leaving me?
5:14JOE: Yes, I am, Norma
5:16NORMA: You can't! Max!
5:20JOE: It's been a bundle of laughs
5:23And thanks for the use of the trinkets
5:26A little ritzy for the copy desk back in Dayton
5:33And there's something you ought to know
5:37I want to do you this favor
5:43They'll never shoot that hopeless script of yours
5:46They only wanted your car
5:51NORMA: That's a lie! They still want me!
5:54What about all my fan-mail?
5:57JOE: It's Max who writes you letters
6:01Your audience has vanished
6:04They left when you weren't looking
6:08Nothing's wrong with being fifty
6:12Unless you're acting twenty
6:25NORMA: I am the greatest star of them all
6:43JOE: Goodbye, Norma
6:45NORMA: No one ever leaves a star
6:48(NORMA shoots JOE)
7:19REPORTER: And as dawn breaks over the murder house,
7:25Norma Desmond, famed star of yesteryear, is in a state of complete mental shock
7:34NORMA: This was dawn
7:39I don't know why I'm frightened
7:41Silent music starts to play
7:49Happy New Year, darling
7:51If you're with me, next year will be
7:55Next year will be
8:00They bring in his head on a silver tray
8:05She kisses his mouth
8:07She kisses his mouth
8:11Mad about the boy
8:17They'll say Norma's back at last
8:21MAX: Madame, the cameras have arrived
8:30NORMA: Max! Where am I?
8:36MAX: This is the staircase of the palace
8:41And they're waiting for your dance
8:51NORMA: Of course
8:55Now I remember
8:59I was so frightened I might fall
9:04MAX: You are the greatest star of all!
9:15MAX: Lights! Cameras! Action!
9:27NORMA: When he scorned me I knew he'd have to die
9:35Let me kiss his severed head
9:46Compromise or death
9:50He fought to his last death
9:55He never had in him to surrender
10:03Just like me, he never could surrender
10:52NORMA: I can't go on with the scene!
10:55I'm too happy!
11:02May I say a few words, Mister DeMille?
11:08I can't tell you how wonderful it is to be back in this studio making a picture.
11:16I promise you - I will never desert you again.
11:20This is my life. It always will be.
11:24There's nothing else.
11:26Just us. And the cameras.
11:31And all you wonderful people, out there in the dark.
11:43And now, Mister DeMille, I am ready for my close-up
12:10NORMA: This time I'm staying
12:11I'm staying for good
12:14I'll be back where I was born to be
12:21With one look I'll be me
