Noël Coward
A Room With a View
(Verse)
I've been cherishing
Through the perishing
Winter nights and days
A funny little phrase
That means
Such a lot to me
That you've got to be
With me heart and soul
For on you the whole
Thing leans
Come with me and leave behind the noisy crowds
Sunlight shines for us above the clouds
Please don't turn away
Or my dream will stay
Hidden out of sight
Among a lot of might-
Have-beens

(Chorus 1)
A room with a view
And you
And no one to worry us
No one to hurry us
Through
This dream we found
We'll gaze at the sky
And try
To guess what it's all about
Then we will figure out
Why
The world is round
We'll be as happy and contented as birds upon a tree
High above the mountains and sea
We'll bill and we'll coo
Oooh
And sorrow will never come
Oh, will it ever come
True?
Our room with a view
(Chorus 2)
A room with a view
And you
And no one to give advice
That sounds a paradise
Few
Could fail to choose
With fingers entwined
We'll find
Relief from the preachers who
Always beseech us to
Mind
Our p's and q's
We'll watch the whole world pass before us
While we are sitting still
Leaning on our own windowsill
We'll bill and we'll coo
Oooh
And maybe a stork will bring
This and t'other thing to
Our room with a view
