With One Look - From "Sunset Boulevard"
They don't want me any more
They all say I'm through
Well, it's time they knew
With one look, I can break your heart
With one look, I play every part
I can make your sad heart sing
With one look you'll know, all you need to know
With one smile, I'm the girl next door
Or the love that you've hungered for
When I speak it's with my soul
I can play any role
No words can tell
The stories my eyes tell
Watch me when I frown
You can't write that down
You know, I'm right
It's there in black and white
When I look your way
You'll hear what I say
Yes, with one look, I put words to shame
Just one look sets the screen aflame
Silent music starts to play
One tear from my eye makes the whole world cry
With one look they'll forgive the past
They'll rejoice, I've returned at last
To my people in the dark
Still out there in the dark
Silent music starts to play
With one look you'll know, all you need to know
With one look, I'll ignite a blaze
I'll return to my glory days
They'll say Norma's back at last
This time I'm staying
I'm staying for good, I'll be back
Where I was born to be
With one look, I'll be me
They all say I'm through
Well, it's time they knew
With one look, I can break your heart
With one look, I play every part
I can make your sad heart sing
With one look you'll know, all you need to know
With one smile, I'm the girl next door
Or the love that you've hungered for
When I speak it's with my soul
I can play any role
No words can tell
The stories my eyes tell
Watch me when I frown
You can't write that down
You know, I'm right
It's there in black and white
When I look your way
You'll hear what I say
Yes, with one look, I put words to shame
Just one look sets the screen aflame
Silent music starts to play
One tear from my eye makes the whole world cry
With one look they'll forgive the past
They'll rejoice, I've returned at last
To my people in the dark
Still out there in the dark
Silent music starts to play
With one look you'll know, all you need to know
With one look, I'll ignite a blaze
I'll return to my glory days
They'll say Norma's back at last
This time I'm staying
I'm staying for good, I'll be back
Where I was born to be
With one look, I'll be me
