No One Ever Leaves A Star

It's been a bundle of laughs And thanks for the use of the trinkets A little ritzy for the copy desk back in Dayton And there's something you ought to know I want to do you this favour They'll never shoot that hopeless script of yours They only wanted your car That's a lie They still want me What about all my fan mail? It's Max, who writes you letters Your audience has vanished They left when you weren't looking Nothing's wrong with being forty unless you're acting twenty I am the greatest star of them all Goodbye, Norma[NORMA] No one ever leaves a star This was dawn I don't know why I'm frightened Silent music starts to play (spoken) Happy New Year, darling (sung) If you're with me Next year will be Next year will be They bring in his head on a silver tray She kisses his mouth She kisses his mouth (spoken) Mad about the boy(sung) They'll say Norma's back at last Madame, the cameras have arrived
