When You Get to Know Me

(WARD leads CHRISTINE KEELER onto the tiny dance floor and whirls her round expertly.)

We start out as strangers

The gods have brought us together

When I saw your face

I knew we'd be friends

When you get to know me

When we get to know each other

I'm certain that we will

Before the night ends

I'd like to know what makes you feel happy

What music makes you sad

All of our secrets slowly unravelled

Such good times to be had

We mustn't miss them

When you get to know me

When you get to know me better

Next time we meet

You won't get to know me

There ain't gonna be a next time

It's not what you think

I came for a drink

I hear the same things over and over

Wasn't born yesterday

I have been through enough hoops this evening

I'd best be on my way

You must be joking

Still, happy to meet you

And better luck next time, Stephen

I'll say goodbye

I'd like to know what makes you feel happy

What music makes you sad

So many secrets to be discovered

Such good times to be had

We mustn't miss them

When you get to know me

When you get to know me better

Next time we meet

You won't get to know me

You won't get to know me better

Next time we meet
