Without You (My Fair Lady - 1964)

Lyrics

What a fool I was, what a dominated fool
To think you were the earth and sky
What a fool I was, what an addle-pated fool
What a muddle-headed dolt was I!

No, my reverberating friend -
You are not the beginning and the end

...

There'll be spring every year without you
England still will be hear without you
There'll be fruit on the tree and a shore by the sea
There'll be crumpets and tea without you
Art and music will thrive without you
Somehow Keats will survive without you
And there still will be rain
On that plain down in Spain
Even that will remain without you
I can do
Without you

You dear friend who talk so well
You can go to Hartford, Hereford, and Hampshire!
They can still rule the land without you
Windsor Castle will stand without you
And without much ado,
We can all muddle through without you

Without your pulling it the tide comes in
Without your twirling it the earth can spin
Without your pushing them the clouds roll by
If they can do without you Ducky, so can I

I shall not feel alone without you
I can stand on my own without you
So go back in your shell
I can do bloody well without---

BYYYY GEORGE I really did it
I did it, I did it
I said I'd a woman and indeed I did
I knew that I could do it
I knew it, I knew it
I said I'd make a woman and succeed I did

"Without your pulling it the tide comes in,

Without your twirling it the earth can spin.

Without your pushing them them the clouds roll by,

IF THEY CAN DO WITHOUT YOU DUCKIE SO CAN I!

[uminatsuko]

THIS IS WHERE THE FILM SHOULD HAVE ENDED.

@GaladedridDamodred What about that Embassy Ball dress? It could work as a wedding dress today.

[EcriverEtre]

Most people don't get the ending. Higgins is not back to bossing her around with the phrase "Where the devil are my slippers". Eliza comes in and pokes fun at her self with the "I washed me face n' hands before I come I did" and then Higgins pokes fun AT HIMSELF with the phrase "Where the devil are my slippers" knowing that he was an arrogant egotistical idiot and that he knows he has to change! Which is why Eliza smiles at him. I actually think it was quite a nice ending :)

Her dress in this scene. I NEED IT IN MY LIFE.

@uminatsuko Why? :( I love them together.

[jeterlover03]

@uminatsuko I know...I hate that she goes back to him!

[GetChewyREALChewy]

I won't find out what comes after this part until next year lol

[hollys14]

And there still will be rain

On that plain down in Spain

Even that will remain without you!!

[charlecinho]

You who have taught so well,

You can go to ... HEARTFORD HERAFORD AND HAMPSHIRE!

[charlecinho]

I don't like it when Eliza returns to Higgins, he doesn't deserve her. He's so rude, he's the "heartless guttersnipe"!
