Remember? (Act One) Song Lyrics

Does she look like her pictures?

Who, dear?

Desiree Armfeldt, of course

How should I know, dear?

Well, I only thought

You only thought- what?

Desiree is not a common name
I mean none of your typists and things are called Desiree
Are they?

Shh

Tell me something about this remarkable Countess, Madame

It is said that her power over men
Is most extraordinary

Her lovers are as many as the pearls
In the necklace which she always wears

The Countess Celimene de Francen de la Tour de Casa

Remember?

Remember?
The old deserted beach that we walked
Remember?

Remember?
The cafe in the park where we talked?
Remember?

Remember?

The tenor on the boat that we charted
Belching The Bartered Bride

Ah, how we laughed
Ah, how we cried
Ah, how you promised

And, ah, how I lied

Why did she look at us?

Shh

Dear Madame Merville
What a charming mischance
To find you here this evening
