Original London Cast of Mrs. Henderson - We'll Never Close – Reprise lyrics

We never closed, we kept our word Shutting up shop, the whole idea was quite absurd The Windmill was a way of life And loved by everyone, well maybe not the wife The theatre is a sacred place There's not a tragedy the actors cannot face The theatre's for a different ilk As comforting as more [?] mother's milk Our lives may be a pipe dream The fantasy of fools The way we dealt with real life Was to tear up all our rules The theatre's here to save us all Our worlds are flaming, hear our 30 minute call The stage door is a magic door Go through it and you'll find your [?] forevermore The [?] (The [?]) The Albert Hall (The Albert Hall) Oh, we still get a thrill at every curtain call [Backing lyrics begin here but are inaudible] [?] ([?]) It's life (It's life) As long as stars come out at night, We'll never close! Ah, ah, ah, ah Ah
