Lyrics (English)

And now we’re all here,
We’ve moved to New York,
We found a nice little rental,
Near a sweet little school,
Now I’m looking at houses,
With four or five floors,
And you found us a brownstone,
Said, “You want it? It’s yours”,
So we went ahead and we bought it,
Found ourselves a good mortgage,
Billy Cotton got sorted,
All the furniture ordered,
I could never afford this,
You were pushing it forward,
Made me feel a bit awkward,
Made me feel a bit awkward,
I walk up the stoop,
I put the key in the door,
And then my phone started ringing,
So I answered the call,
And they were like, “Hey, you got
the lead in a play,
You got to be back in London
for rehearsals in May”,
And later that evening you said,
“How was my day?”
I said, “I got some good news, I got
the lead in a play”
That’s when your demeanour started
to change,
You said I’d have to audition,
I said, “You’re deranged”,
And I thought,
I thought that that was quite strange,
(I found that strange),
And I thought,
I thought that that was quite strange,
(so very strange ),
But I ignored it,
Went ahead and I bought it,
Got a flight and I boarded, I’m on my way.
Now I’m in London,
I’m on my own,
I’m in a hotel room,
I’m on my own,
And now I’m in London,
And I’m all alone,
I’m in a hotel room,
I’m all on my own,
Now I’m a West End Girl,
Now I’m a West End Girl,
Now I’m a West End Girl,
A West End Girl,
Hi!
How are you?
I miss you.
Yeah… Huh?
Yeah… Right.
Um… Okay.
Well, I mean it doesn’t make me feel great,
Well – If that’s what you need to do then.
I guess.
Well how, how will it work? Where – ?
Right.
I mean it makes me really sad but…
Ummhumm… Ummhumm…
No I’m I’m fine, I’m fine, it’s –
I just, I want you to be happy.
Okay.
Okay, I’ll speak to you later.
I love you.
Bye.
