《I’ve Grown Accustomed to Her Face》歌词

[00:00:00] I've Grown Accustomed to Her Face - West End Stars

[00:00:13] Damn Damn Damn Damn

[00:00:18] I've grown accustomed to her face

[00:00:25] She almost makes the day begin

[00:00:30] I've grown accustomed to the tune that

[00:00:33] She whistles night and noon

[00:00:35] Her smiles her frowns

[00:00:37] Her ups her downs

[00:00:40] Are second nature to me now;

[00:00:45] Like breathing out and breathing in

[00:00:50] I was serenely independent

[00:00:52] And content before we met;

[00:00:55] Surely I could always be that way again-

[00:00:59] And yet

[00:01:00] I've grown accustomed to her look;

[00:01:03] Accustomed to her voice;

[00:01:06] Accustomed to her face

[00:01:15] "Marry Freddy "

[00:01:16] What an infantile idea What a heartless

[00:01:18] Wicked brainless thing to do

[00:01:20] But she'll regret she'll regret it

[00:01:23] It's doomed before they even take the vow

[00:01:27] I can see her now Mrs Freddy Eynsford-Hill

[00:01:30] In a wretched little flat above a store

[00:01:33] I can see her now not a penny in the till

[00:01:36] And a bill collector beating at the door

[00:01:39] She'll try to teach the things I taught her

[00:01:42] And end up selling flowers instead

[00:01:45] Begging for her bread and water

[00:01:47] While her husband has his breakfast in bed

[00:01:50] In a year or so when she's prematurely grey

[00:01:53] And the blossom in her cheek has turned to chalk

[00:01:56] She'll come home and lo

[00:01:57] He'll have upped and run away

[00:01:59] With a social-climbing heiress from New York

[00:02:02] Poor Eliza How simply frightful

[00:02:05] How humiliating How delightful

[00:02:10] How poignant it'll be on that inevitable night

[00:02:13] When she hammers on my door in tears and rags

[00:02:16] Miserable and lonely repentant and contrite

[00:02:19] Will I take her in or hurl her to the walls

[00:02:21] Give her kindness or the treatment she deserves

[00:02:24] Will I take her back or throw the baggage out

[00:02:29] I'm a most forgiving man;

[00:02:32] The sort who never could ever would

[00:02:36] Take a position and staunchly never budge

[00:02:42] Just a most forgiving man

[00:02:48] But I shall never take her back

[00:02:51] If she were even crawling on her knees

[00:02:54] Let her promise to atone;

[00:02:56] Let her shiver let her moan;

[00:02:57] I'll slam the door and let the hell-cat freeze

[00:03:03] "Marry Freddy" ha

[00:03:18] But I'm so used to hear her say

[00:03:22] "Good morning" ev'ry day

[00:03:24] Her joys her woes

[00:03:27] Her highs her lows

[00:03:30] Are second nature to me now;

[00:03:36] Like breathing out and breathing in

[00:03:42] I'm very grateful she's a woman

[00:03:45] And so easy to forget;

[00:03:48] Rather like a habit

[00:03:50] One can always break-

[00:03:53] And yet

[00:03:54] I've grown accustomed to the trace

[00:03:58] Of something in the air;

[00:04:01] Accustomed to her face
