Forever Beautiful (《战妆》音乐剧插曲) - Patti LuPone[00:00:00]

Written by：Scott Frankel/Michael Korie[00:00:00]

These portraits[00:00:00]

They trap me in amber[00:00:02]

They will not age[00:00:05]

They will live forever[00:00:07]

My Dali dear[00:00:10]

That mad surrealist[00:00:12]

He made me beautiful[00:00:14]

Forever Beautiful[00:00:16]

My eyes like gems[00:00:19]

Notice please each tiny lash[00:00:20]

Would you believe he[00:00:23]

Painted with his own mustache[00:00:24]

Raoul Dufy[00:00:31]

A brilliant colorist[00:00:33]

He made me beautiful[00:00:36]

Forever Beautiful[00:00:38]

A few deft strokes[00:00:40]

Poppy red and iris blue[00:00:42]

In my small way[00:00:44]

I do know something of this too[00:00:45]

Made women glorious[00:00:51]

Made women glamorous[00:00:54]

Used all my art[00:00:56]

To halt the march of time[00:00:57]

I slowed it down a bit[00:01:00]

There is no stopping it[00:01:02]

But in a painting[00:01:05]

It is always your prime[00:01:06]

Right[00:01:10]

Tamara de Lempicka[00:01:12]

She was bisexual[00:01:14]

You see her love for me[00:01:16]

But it's sub textual[00:01:18]

My lifelong fight[00:01:21]

Is to keep my figure trim[00:01:22]

But now I eat[00:01:25]

'Cause Giacometti keeps me slim[00:01:26]

Seven guest rooms[00:01:31]

When was the last time[00:01:32]

She even had a visitor[00:01:33]

She's old and scared[00:01:34]

Wouldn't you be[00:01:36]

Good go then you money men[00:01:37]

I read your beady eyes[00:01:41]

'Vain old lady all alone[00:01:44]

In bed until she dies'[00:01:48]

I admit[00:01:51]

I am a little bit afraid to meet death[00:01:53]

But with brilliant eye for art[00:01:59]

When I depart[00:02:03]

I'll cheat death[00:02:05]

With my Picasso[00:02:08]

His early cubist years[00:02:10]

I posed no clothes with him[00:02:12]

Thank God who knows with him[00:02:14]

He says 'Your ears[00:02:16]

Are like elephant in size'[00:02:18]

I say from you well[00:02:20]

Who can tell from ears or eyes[00:02:22]

When I was girl of eight[00:02:27]

My papa sneered at me[00:02:29]

A plainer face he'd never seen before[00:02:32]

I said to hell with fate[00:02:36]

I'll mold my destiny[00:02:38]

Packed my satchel[00:02:40]

And walked right out the door[00:02:41]

From discontented life[00:02:44]

Without a cent I was[00:02:46]

Became a name[00:02:48]

The world could not ignore[00:02:49]

I reinvent my life[00:02:52]

As every artist does[00:02:54]

I had nothing[00:02:56]

I knew nothing[00:02:57]

I only know[00:02:59]

There must be something more[00:03:00]

So much more[00:03:05]

Look at them all[00:03:08]

Their light will never dim[00:03:10]

If death should come for me[00:03:12]

They bar the door on him[00:03:14]

Though flesh may fade[00:03:16]

Canvas lives immortally[00:03:18]

And there I'll hang[00:03:20]

From now through all eternity[00:03:22]

Who gives a d**n[00:03:24]

No children visit me[00:03:27]

These are my progeny[00:03:29]

Each an exquisite me[00:03:31]

Who says I'm old[00:03:33]

I look at my life so far[00:03:34]

And I am beautiful[00:03:37]

And I feel beautiful[00:03:39]

Forever beautiful[00:03:41]

When you feel beautiful[00:03:43]

You are[00:03:47]
