JERRY CRUNCHER: The next day I went to the Manette home with Mr. Lorry. Miss Pross met us at the door. Now she was a fine one that Prossy. Anyway, Miss Pross starts complaining right away about the number of suitors who came to call on Lucy and that none of them are worthy of her Ladybird. She said the only man worthy of Lucy was her own brother, Solomon Pross. Now me and Mr. Lorry and everyone else knew, that Solomon was a scoundrel who robbed Miss Pross of her possessions and left her in poverty. Then she says that Mr. Darnay and Lucy were indeed in love and that there was talk of a marriage, much to her disapproval! That Miss Pross she was a funny one she was. Like me, she had made her life one of service to others she had. Like a mother to Lucy since she was first born. And, If I weren’t already a married man!
(MISS PROSS)
I SIT AND WATCH THEM TAKE THEIR PLACES
BY THE HUNDREDS, THEY STEADILY ARRIVE
THEY WAIT, WITH GREAT EXPECTATIONS
THEN THEY FILL YOU WITH ALL OF THEIR LIES
I LOVE AND LIVE MY LIFE OF SERVICE
FOR YOU I ALWAYS WILL BE TRUTH
NO HARM WILL EVER COME TO TOUCH YOU
NO HEART WILL BREAK YOUR HEART IN TWO
(CHORUS)
YOUR LOVE IS GREATER THAN THEIR LOVE
YOUR LOVE IS WHAT THEY ALL DESIRE
MY LOVE IS ALWAYS THERE TO GUIDE YOU
NONE OF THEM IS GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU
(MISS PROSS)
THEY TRY, THEY TRY TO TAKE ADVANTAGE
THEY CRY, BUT IT'S JUST ANOTHER GAME
THEY SIGH, AND TELL YOU THAT THEY LOVE YOU
THEY LIE, AND SAY THEY WILL BE TRUE
(CHORUS)
YOUR LOVE, IS GREATER THAN THEIR LOVE
YOUR LOVE, IS WHAT THEY ALL DESIRE
MY LOVE IS ALWAYS THERE TO GUIDE YOU
NONE OF THEM IS GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU
(MISS PROSS)
YOU CAN'T SEE
THE THINGS THAT I SEE
YOUR HEART IS FOOLED BY THE FIRE
YOU MUST BELIEVE
I UNDERSTAND YOUR NEED
NONE OF THEM IS GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU
(INSTRUMENTAL)
(CHORUS)
YOUR LOVE, IS GREATER THAN THEIR LOVE
YOUR LOVE, IS WHAT THEY ALL DESIRE
MY LOVE IS ALWAYS THERE TO GUIDE YOU
NONE OF THEM IS GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU
YOUR LOVE,
NONE OF THEM IS GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU
YOUR LOVE
