Dear Little Café
Noël Coward * Track #1 On Bitter Sweet
Dear Little Café Lyrics
(Verse 1)
[CARL]
We share a mutual ambition
Which naught can disarrange
[SARI]
Based on the hopeful supposition
That soon our luck will change
[CARL]
Though we very often wonder whether
Poverty will win the day
[SARI]
Just as long as we remain together
Troubles seem to fade away
(Chorus 1)
[BOTH]
However hard the bed one lies on
The same old dreams begin
We're always scanning the horizon
For when our ship comes in
We'll have a sweet little café
In a neat little square
We'll find our fortune
And our happiness there
[CARL]
We shall thrive on the vain and resplendent
[SARI]
And contrive to remain independent
[CARL]
We'll have a meek reputation
And a chic clientele
[SARI]
Kings will fall under our spell
[BOTH]
We'll be so zealous
That the world will be jealous
Of our sweet little café in a square
(Verse 2)
[SARI]
Can you imagine our sensations
When we've security?
[CARL]
And all our dreary deprivations
Are just a memory
[SARI]
Though we're very often driven frantic
Peace is very hard to find
[CARL]
All these dreary days will seem romantic
When we've left them far behind
(Chorus 2)
[BOTH]
Fate needn't be quite such a dragon
He knows how tired we are
We'll hitch our hopeful little wagon
Onto a lucky star
[CARL]
We'll have a sweet little café
In a neat little square
[SARI]
We'll find our fortune
And our happiness there
[CARL]
We shall thrive on the vain and resplendent
[SARI]
And contrive to remain independent
[CARL]
We'll have a meek reputation
And a chic clientele
[SARI]
Kings will fall under our spell
[BOTH]
We'll be so zealous
That the world will be jealous
Of our sweet little café in a square
