Lyrics Who's Betty Schaefer? - Andrew Lloyd Webber , Glenn Close

(-little suffering)

Is this what you're looking for, by any chance?
Why? Yes
Whose phone number is this?
I've been worried about the line of my throat
I think this woman has done wonders with it
Good
And I've lost half a pound since Tuesday
Very good

Now it's after nine, I'd better get to bed
You had
Are you coming up?
I think I'll read a while longer

You went out last night, didn't you, Joe?
I went for a walk
You took the car
I drove to the beach

Who's Betty Schaefer?

Surely, you don't want me to feel as if I'm a prisoner in this house?
You don't understand, Joe, I'm under such a terrible strain
It's been so hard, I even got myself a revolver
The only thing that stopped me from killing myself
Was the thought of all those people waiting to see me back on the screen
How could I disappoint them?
All I ask is a little patience, a little understanding

Norma, there's nothing to worry about, I haven't done anything

Of course you haven't
Goodnight, my darling

I should have stayed there, poor Norma
So desperate to be ready for what would never happen
But Betty would be waiting
We had a script to finish
One unexpected love scene
Two people, both risking
A kind of happy ending
