Kurt Weill - I Don't Love You lyrics

[WEILL, spoken] Dear Lenya In the few days I've been here, I've already met all sorts of interesting people, including Her Highness the Princess [?]. She has commissioned me to write a symphony [LENYA, spoken] Dear Weill I am in Düsseldorf playing Juliet, a thirteen year old virgin. Everybody buys it. I must be one hell of an actress [WEILL] Don't hold me so close For I don't love you You've got what you want I'm only a friend [LENYA, spoken] Otto takes superb care of me [WEILL] To feel your embrace Might cut me in two The sight of your face [?] [LENYA, spoken] By the way, the divorce went through (sung) Come tell me the names Of your new affairs Describe all their games And mimic their sighs For you understand That I don't love you But don't press my hand Or look deep in my eyes [WEILL, spoken] Dear Juliet Hello from your ex-Romeo. All goes well here. I am doing a film score for Jean Renoir. Don't write to me at the hotel anymore, the Princess has become my patron, and I have moved into her palace. You should see the size of my bedroom! (sung) I haven't been hurt You won't see me cry Our love was a dream And dreams have to die [LENYA, spoken] Dear Highness I wish I could come and pee in your royal toilet. The play I do now is a big fat hit all over the place! I send reviews, in case you didn't see them (sung) Yes, just let me know How happy you'll be Make sure I can see How brightly you smile How you feel for her Describe it to me Find words to convey Her inexpressible style (spoken) Otto begs me to make a baby with him. I think... maybe I'll do it [WEILL] No, don't say a word What good would it do? The fire is out The blaze is so high When romance is new If I seem to cry... Please don't ask me why My darling, my love Oh, how can you doubt it? I don't love you No, don't press my hand Don't hold me so close No, I don't love you
