"West End Girl" lyrics

"West End Girl"

And now we're all here
We've moved to New York
We found a nice little rental
Near a sweet little school
Now I'm looking at houses
With four or five floors
And you found us a brownstone
Said, "You want it? It's yours"

So we went ahead and we bought it
Found ourselves a good mortgage
Billy Cotton got sorted
All the furniture ordered
I could never afford this
You were pushing it forward
Made me feel a bit awkward
Made me feel a bit awkward

I walk up the stoop
I put the key in the door
And then my phone started ringing
So, I answered the call

And they were like, "Hey, you got the lead in a play
You've got to be back in London for rehearsals in May"
And later that evening, you said how was my day?
I said, "I got some good news
I got the lead in a play"
That's when your demeanor started to change
You said I'd have to audition
I said, "You're deranged"

And I thought

I thought that that was quite strange
I found that strange
And I thought
I thought that that was quite strange
So very strange
But I ignored it
Went ahead and I bought it
Got a flight and I boarded
I'm on my way

Now I'm in London
I'm on my own
I'm in a hotel room
I'm on my own
And now I'm in London
And I'm all alone
I'm in a hotel room
I'm all on my own

Now I'm a West End girl
Now I'm a West End girl
Now I'm a West End girl
A West End girl
