laura benanti - tilly's aria/frank and tilly make love (live) كلمات الأغنية

[laura benanti, spoken]
do you ever have this feeling when you wake up in the morning that you’re in love, but you don’t know with what?

[todd almond, spoken]
yeah.

[laura benanti, spoken]
it’s this feeling that…

(sung)
you wanna love strangers
you wanna kiss the man in the post office

(spoken)
or the woman at the dry cleaners. or you just wanna…

(sung)
wrap your arms around life
life itself
but you can’t
and this feelings wells up
and there’s nowhere to put this great happiness
and then you’re floating
and then you’re falling

(spoken)
and then you just become unbearably sad. and you have to go…

(sung)
lie down on the couch

[todd almond, spoken]
are you still in therapy?

[laura benanti, spoken]
huh. that’s funny. everybody’s always asking me, “tilly, are you still in therapy?” and i say something like, “i’ve had a bad day.” and they say, “tilly, are you still in therapy?” i go to therapy and my therapist falls in love with me. i have to be careful. (audience laughs.)

[todd almond, spoken]
huh.

[laura benanti and todd almond, laura benanti]
i’m not particularly smart
i’m not particularly beautiful
but i suffer so well
and when a stranger sees me cry
they see a river they haven’t swum in
a river in a foreign country
so they take off their trousers
and they jump in the water
and they take pictures
with their waterproof camera
and then they dry themselves in the sun
but i’m still wet

[laura benanti, spoken]
wait, am i being weird?

[todd almond, spoken]
no.

[todd almond, laura benanti]
i took tilly home
i took frank home
to my apartment
to his apartment
and i said, “you are like a painting”

[laura benanti, spoken]
what painting?

[todd almond, sung]
i don’t know
the one where a woman
looks sad and beautiful

[laura benanti, spoken]
like this? (audience laughs.)

[todd almond, spoken]
yeah. yeah. only your head goes over your shoulder, a little to the left, with your chin down and your eyes looking up. your eyes should look hopeful, while your chin looks looks sad. (audience laughs.) one thing goes up, one thing goes down. yeah. god, i wish i could paint you.

[laura benanti, spoken]
why don’t you?

[todd almond, spoken]
i can’t paint. (audience laughs.)

[laura benanti and todd almond]
then we made love
under the covers
the room was dark
the sheets were damp
and i held you in
my arms, just like a movie
and i [?]
your head on my chest

[todd almond, spoken]
and i said, “play that seasick music, tilly.”

(sung)
i’m in love

[laura benanti and todd almond]
i’m in love
i’m in love
i’m in love

- laura benanti
