Starting Here, Starting Now (Original London Cast)

0

[MAN]
\nI didn't need a single word to know
\nThe wondrous fact of us that stirred me so
\nWe have our joy, our youth
\nBut most of all the simple truth
\nIs we can talk to each other
\nWe can talk to each other
\n
\nToo many love affairs are fly-by-night
\nLike ships that pass each other by, by night
\nBut 'cross the darkest sea
\nYour heart can reach right out to me
\n'Cause we can talk to each other
\nWe can talk to each other
\n
\n[WOMAN 2, spoken, on the telephone]
\nHello?
\n
\n[MAN & WOMAN 2, spoken]
\nI've been in love more than you know
\nOh, Gary, hi, listen
\nBut somehow words never could flow
\nGary, I thought about, we need to do something
\nWhеn I met you, there on thе bus, out of the blue
\nAnd found I could talk to you
\nIf you could just get a couple of beers on the—
\nTell you everything (I just said that we're gonna paint—)
\n'Bout my therapy (There's a few things—)
\nAnd my trip to Greece (Honey, I'm not gonna—)
\nAnd my boring job (Gary, listen to me, it's gonna be—)
\n'Til I am through
\nAnd then I get to listen to you (Good, because I really—)
\n
\n[MAN]
\nMake my heart start shouting
\nMore, more, more
\nBecause I've finally found my first rapport
\nThrough troubles large and small
\nOur love will soar above it all
\n
\n[MAN & WOMAN 2, spoken]
\nFor we can talk! (Gary–)
\nWe can talk! (Gary—)
\nWe can talk to each other (It's gonna be—)
\nWe can talk to each other (I'm having an affair, Gary)
\nWe can talk to each other (With your brother, Gary)
\nWe can talk to each other (He's doing it to me now)
\nWe can talk
\n
\n[WOMAN 2 hangs up.]
\n
\nTo each other!\n\n
