Somebody

(ISABELLE sits alone on her balcony.)

[ISABELLE]
It's the time of day
When the world is grey
I am waiting
Waiting for somebody

And I search the skies
With my aching eyes
For my special someone
My somebody

Though I know it's wrong
All my senses long
For the man who's strong and can comfort me

And oh
How I long for him to hold me
My somebody will truly know me
He'll take me in his arms
And show me
How my lonely life can change
Into something strange and splendid
And then we'll fly away forever
At least, until my dream has ended
Endеd

And I scan the square
And therе's no one there
I mean, no one there who is there for me

And the night draws on
And my husband's gone
But I don't expect him to care for me

But at least I know
When the world is grey
If I dream my dreams
I can face the day

And it's easy to face
In the warm embrace
Of my perfect fantasy
Somebody

(ISABELLE withdraws.)
