Lyrics
0:08Well
0:09Hello Mr. Gillis
0:11Where have you been
0:13Keeping yourself?
0:16Someone's
0:17Been doing it for me
0:20And meanwhile "Blind Windows"
0:22Is stuck on the shelf
0:24You said
0:26We'd work together
0:27New Year's crisis
0:29What can I say?
0:31Always
0:33Full of excuses
0:34Promise I'll call you
0:36Later today
0:37You said that last time
0:39Betty I won't let you down
0:42I guess I'll just have to trust you
0:45You're Miss Desmond's German shepherd
0:49I'm the one who's been calling
0:51The name is Sheldrake
0:53A couple of weeks ago
0:54I was looking out of my office window and I saw you driving on to the lot
0:58And I said "that's exactly the car I've been looking for"
1:01Great for my new Crosby picture
1:02So I made some inquiries and I've been calling for two weeks
1:07Doesn't she ever answer the phone?
1:09It's outrageous
1:10You insult her
1:11How can you be so cruel?
1:14I forbid you to approach her
1:17You're insane
1:18Go away Go away
1:21Did you see
1:25How they all came
1:27Crowding around?
1:30They still love me
1:34And soon we'll be
1:36Breaking new ground
1:40Brave pioneers
1:45Those were the days
1:50Just like before
1:53We had such fun
1:56We gave the world
2:00New ways to dream
2:04We always found
2:08New ways to dream
2:16Let's have a good long talk one day
2:20The old team will be back in business
2:23Sorry my next shot's ready
2:28Mr. Gillis
2:29What's the matter Max?
2:30I just found out the reason for all those phone calls from Paramount
2:34It's not Madame they want It's her car
2:38Oh my God
2:43Now you remember don't you?
2:46I don't work before 10 or after 4:30 in the afternoon
2:51It isn't entirely my decision
2:53Norma New York must be consulted
2:57That's fine You ask any exhibitor in the country
3:01I'm not forgotten
3:04Of course you're not
3:08Goodbye young fellow We'll see what we can do
3:11I'm not worried It's so wonderful to be back
3:20Was that really Norma Desmond?
3:25It was
3:27She must be about a million years old
3:34If you could have seen
3:38When she at seventeen
3:43When all of her dreams were new
3:52Beautiful and strong
3:56Before it all went wrong
4:01She's never known the meaning of
4:06Surrender
4:10Never known the meaning of
4:16Surrender
