Andrew Lloyd Webber - Dear Old Friend (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) lyrics

[CHRISTINE] Slow down Gustave! There are people working here, be careful! [GUSTAVE] But I want to find Mr.Y! And go see the island! [CHRISTINE] I'm sure he'll send for you when he's ready. [RAOUL] Who is this Mr. Y? What does he do-apart from spend ludicrous amounts of money on light entertainment? [GUSTAVE] Father! Look over there! [RAOUL] Gustave slow down! [MEG] Heaven help me could it be? No it couldn't possibly [CHRISTINE] Sorry do I... [MEG] Yes I think you do. [CHRISTINE] Have we... [MEG] Go on take a guess [CHRISTINE] Wait it can't be is it... [MEG] Yes! [CHRISTINE] Oh my god I can't believe it's you! [MEG] Look at you, Christine. Regal as a queen and beautiful [CHRISTINE] Meg, and you as well I could hardly tell it's you [CHRISTINE/MEG] My dear old friend Can't believe you're here, old friend [CHRISTINE] After all this time [MEG] Christine you came You look sublime [CHRISTINE] You look the same [CHRISTINE/MEG] My sweet old friend. Never thought we'd meet, old friend [CHRISTINE] What of your career? [MEG] Everything's great [CHRISTINE/MEG] And isn't fate a splendid thing? [CHRISTINE] It brought me here [MEG] To see the sights? [CHRISTINE] And sing [GIRY] You! [RAOUL] My god, it's you! [GIRY] It can't be true [RAOUL] Is this a dream? It's been ten years! [GIRY] What brings you here? [RAOUL] What do you think? Christine She's here to sing [GIRY] I read the news For Hammerstein? [RAOUL] No plans have changed He's been outbid [GIRY] Outbid by whom? [RAOUL] The contract's here It's rather strange [MEG] Sorry, did I hear you right? Here to sing [CHRISTINE] Tomorrow night [MEG] That seems odd there must be some mistake That's the leading lady slot I've been booked [CHRISTINE] Oh surely not... [MEG] This was meant to be my lucky break [CHRISTINE] Look I hardly sing Just one little thing An aria [MEG] Christine it's a thrill Just to share the bill with you MEG/GIRY My dear old friend It's becoming clear old friend Someone's overlooked His leading act [RAOUL] Well double-booked To be exact Now my old friend Can you clarify old friend This Mr. Y With whom we signed Who hides behind the pseudonym [GIRY] You haven't guessed? [RAOUL] I've no idea [GIRY] It's him [RAOUL] It's him? [GIRY] That's what I said [RAOUL] You work for him? [GIRY] Now you do too [RAOUL] My poor wife, we thought him dead She'll be appalled [GIRY] Unless she knew [CHRISTINE] Darling, please, are you alright? [RAOUL] Tell me now, this music, who was its creator? [CHRISTINE] Darling, please don't squeeze so tight [RAOUL] Something's going on here, I'll deal with you later [MEG] What's this about? [GIRY] I wish I knew [GIRY/RAOUL The truth will out before we're through [ALL] My dear old friends Can't believe your here old friends [GIRY] My dear Christine [MEG] My dear Vicomte [CHRISTINE] What does this mean? [RAOUL] What does he want? [ALL] My grand old friend I don't understand old friend [MEG/GIRY] Maybe it's a joke [CHRISTINE/RAOUL] Some silly game [ALL] And what his aim is in the end I can't pretend to comprehend old friend [MEG] It isn't fair [GIRY] You need to think [CHRISTINE] I need some air [RAOUL] I need a drink [ALL] My bold old friend Isn't this abhorred old friend [CHRISTINE] I'm still amazed [MEG] I'm still confused [GIRY] I'm feeling dazed [RAOUL] I'm feeling used [ALL] And yet old friend Let's not get upset old friend GIRY We can sort this out [RAOUL] I'm sure we will [MEG] Without a doubt [ALL] Because we're still Such grand old friends Such devoted and old friends Back again (at last) When everyone (is doing great) Won't this be fun? (so much fun) With two old friends Just able with two old friends (?) [GIRY] Let us raise a gla** [CHRISTINE] To times gone by [RAOUL] To Mr. Y [MEG] To happy ends [ALL] To such sincere And very dear old friends Old friends! [RAOUL] No offense, but I need something stronger. Madame I shall see you tomorrow night at the concert, where I am sure you will both surpa** yourselves. Good day. [CHRISTINE] Raoul, please! I can explain! I'm sorry...look I wonder would you mind....Gustave! [MEG] What is it? [CHRISTINE] My son! He was with...Gustave! Gustave! [MEG] Christine wait!
