Andrew Lloyd Webber - The House at Pau
Wish my arms were longer
Or the gap was wider...
One more go and that should do it
One more try and there!
That does it
★ ROSE ★
You will rue the day that you got me in this mess!
I've torn my one good dress!
Oh, you're really a charmer...
★ ALEX ★
Rose, I know this seems like a scene from ★ i ★Modern Times★ /i ★
The house is my uncle's, alright I was lying
He's working in Paris, he won't come here prying
Oh, Rose, Rose, can't you see?
I would have said anything to get you here with me...
Shall I make some coffee?
★ ROSE ★
One cup of fresh coffee buys two kisses
Shall we have dinner?
★ BOTH ★
Whatever happens, we have this moment
Who needs tomorrow when we have today?
Tonight we'll mean the things we say, forever
Seeing is believing
My life is just beginning
We touched and my head won't stop spinning
From winning your love
