Another Suitcase In Another Hall

MISTRESS:I don't expect my love affairs to last for long

Never fool myself that my dreams will come true

Being used to trouble

I anticipate it

But all the same

I hate it--wouldn't you?

So what happens now?

CHE:Another suitcase in another hall

MISTRESS:So what happens now?

CHE:Take your picture off another wall

MISTRESS:Where am

I going to?

CHE:You'll get by, you always have before

MISTRESS:Where am

I going to?

Time and time again

I've said that

I don't care

That I'm immune to gloom, that

I'm hard through and through

But every time it matters all my words desert me

So anyone can hurt me--and they do

So what happens now?

CHE:Another suitcase in another hall

MISTRESS:So what happens now?

CHE:Take your picture off another wall

MISTRESS:Where am

I going to?

CHE:You'll get by you always have before

MISTRESS:Where am

I going go?

Call in three months time and

I'll be fine

I knowWell maybe not that fine, but

I'll survive anyhow

I won't recall the names and places of this sad occasion

But that's no consolation--here and now

So what happens now?

CHE:Another suitcase in another hall

MISTRESS:So what happens now?

CHE:Take your picture off another wall

MISTRESS:Where am

I going to?

CHE:You'll get by, you always have before

MISTRESS:Where am

I going to?

CHE:Don't ask anymore
