My sister is an alcoholic and the story this performance tells is touching and heartbreaking. I love her for this because she shows the vulnerable, tender, sad and hopeful heart that worn out lonely people can have. It makes me cry and takes my breath away at the same time. Bette is not just a fabulous entertainer but a great performance artist. She touches our humanity. Love you Bette!
You know...they'll tell you everyone.. The'll tell you every woman...got to have protection. You know they'll tell its YOUR time to fall. Sometime I can see my own reflection. Well beyond, well beyond...these 4 walls. I see my light, I see my light shining. Oh from the west, from the west down to the east. In my heart I know.... Any day now Oh any day now I shall be...I shall be release.
They say everything can be replaced. They say every distance is not near. Oh, but I remember...every single face. Of every single man who put me here. Well they say every woman needs protection. They'll tell you every woman is bound to fall. Sometimes I lay alone, but I can see my own reflection. Shimmering high above me wall. You know I see...I see my light shining. From the west...mmm down to the east. And any day now...Oh any day now. I shall be released.
I saw her today at the reception... She had a glass of wine, in her hand. Then she said, I have to go...and meet my connection. At her feet was a footloose man. I heard her say... You can't always get what you want. You can't always get what your want. You can't always get what you want... But if you try sometimes, you just may find...That you get what you need. Oh! don't you find that you Will get what you need...
Love to here the mix after this in the movie (You can't always get what you want/release me). In any case, thanks Dirk for posting I've been looking for a very long time. It would have been nice to run into you when I was living in Berlin.
Thanks so much for sharing

Yonder there in that lonely crowd.
A man who says he's not to blame.
Say to him "You know that broken hearted woman".
He'll tell you no he don't...he don't even know my name.
Oh, and I see...I see my light shining.
From the west...mmm down to the east.
And any day now...oh any day now...
I shall be released.
