Quiet Pleaseres a Lady on Stage — текст песни (Dusty Springfield)

(carole bayer-sager & peter allen)



Quiet please, theres a lady on stage

She may not be the latest rage

But shes singing and she means it

And she deserves a little silence



Quiet please, theres a woman up there

And shes been honest through her songs

Long before your consciousness was raised

Doesnt that deserve a little praise



So put your hands together and help her along

All thats left of the singers

All thats left of the song

Stand for the ovation

And give her one last celebration



Quiet please, theres a person up there

And shes been singing of the things

That none of us could bear to hear for ourselves

Give her your respect if nothing else



Quiet please, theres a lady on stage

Conductor, turn the final page

And when its over we can all go home

But she lives on -- on the stage alone.
