What Can You Say? - Original London Cast, Ховард Гудолл

What can you say about a girl

Who seemed to run before she walked

Who thought the stars came out to listen when we talked

I always knew just how she felt

The kind of smile that made you melt

However hard you disagree

What can you say about a girl

Who’s every look could hurt or heal

Who told the truth whatever pain it might reveal

She told it straight, she kept her word

She thought that boys were quite absurd

Yet she learned what love can be

What can you say?

Say that lov’s a bridge to cross an ocean

Pray that it survives whn hope does not

Say that there’s a light that shines regardless

Pray that love abides no matter what

What can you say about a girl

Who walked to bach each winter day

Made pianos sing and people weep to hear her play

So full of pride, I’d nearly burst

I’d wait ‘till all the crowd dispersed

Without the proper words to hand

What could I say?
