I've Grown Accustomed To Her Face
My Fair Lady

Henry: I've grown accustomed to her face

She almost makes the day begin

I've grown accustomed to the tune

That she whistles night and noon

Her smiles, her frowns

Her ups, her downs

Are second nature to me now

Like breathing out, breathing in

I was serenely independent and content before we met

Surely I could always be that way again and yet

I've grown accustomed to her looks

Accustomed to her voice

Accustomed to her face

Marry Freddie?

What an infantile idea

What a heartless, wicked, brainless thing to do

She'll regret it

She'll regret it

It's doomed before they even take the vow

I can see her now, Mrs. Freddie Eynsford-Hill

In a wretched little flat above a store

I can see her now, not a penny in the till

And a bill collector beating at the door

She'll try to teach the things I taught

And end up selling flowers instead

Begging for her bread and water

While her husband has his breakfast in bed

In a year or so

When she's prematurely gray

When the blossoms in her cheek has turned to chalk

She'll come home and lo!

He'll have upped and ran away

With a social climbing heiress from New York

Poor Eliza! How simply frightful!

How humiliating! How delightful!

How pining would it be on that inevitable night

When she hammers on my door in tears and rag

Miserable and lonely, repentant and contrite

Will I take her in or hurl her to the wall?

Give her kindness or the treatment she deserve?

Will I take her back or throw the baggage out

Well, I'm a most forgiving man

The sort who never could, never would

Take a position and staunchly never budge

A most forgiving man

BUT, I shall never take her back

If she was crawling on her knees

Let her promise to atone, let her shiver, let her moan

Then I'll slam the door and let the hellcat freeze

Marry Freddie.. HA!

But I'm so used to hear her say Good morning every day

Her joys, her woes, her highs, her lows

Are second nature to me now

Like breathing out and breathing in

I'm very grateful she's a woman

And very easy to forget

Rather like a habit one can always break

Yet I've grown accustomed to the trace of

Something in the air

Accustomed to her face...
