Zaza is a 1923 American silent romantic drama film directed and produced by Allan Dwan, and starring Gloria Swanson. This film is based on the 1899 French play of the same name produced on Broadway by David Belasco and starring Mrs. Leslie Carter. A print of the film is housed at the George Eastman House and the Library of Congress.
A previous film version was released by Paramount in 1915 starring Pauline Frederick. A third version, directed by George Cukor and starring Claudette Colbert, was released in 1939.
Zaza is a play, originally written by French playwrights Pierre Berton and Charles Simon, but probably best known in the English-speaking world in the 1898 adaptation by David Belasco. The title character is a prostitute who becomes a music hall entertainer and the mistress of a married man. According to the IMDb, it was produced on stage and in film six times between 1913 and 1956. The IMDB's best-documented instance is the 1939 production starring Claudette Colbert as Zaza, Herbert Marshall as the man whose mistress she becomes, and Bert Lahr as her music-hall partner.
Don't know who you are
Or what this means
But I can't deny what I've seen
There's a dream I've seen
Now I believe you're somewhere out there, wandering
Can't tell you how it ends
the story's barely there, about to begin
But I can see your light
As the daylight turns to night
I've been waiting forever, ever
And I've been thinking you'd never, ever come around
You're here, it's clear that you're gonna stay
Those parts of the past we'll throw away
And I don't wanna let you go
'cause in my heart I know
You know everything about me
I don't wanna wake up from this dream
Then the alarm rings
Well its pretty clear, clear to me
That you're really here, you don't wanna leave
There's something wrong, you're walking on and I can see your shadows, on every turn
Well it goes by way too fast, and my memories stay from the past
Why do we always say forever, actually, forever never lasts
I've been waiting forever, ever
And I've been thinking you'd never, ever come around
You're here, it's clear that you're gonna stay
Those parts of the past we'll throw away
And I don't wanna let you go
'cause in my heart I know
You know everything about me
I don't wanna wake up from this dream
Then the alarm rings
In my mind its always better
Don't make me
Can you really see what you do to me
If I lose you I lose a part of mewait forever
Can you tell me why this is happening
Are you something that I'm imagining?
If you have to leave, promise me, you'll be back and you're sorry
Well its pretty clear, clear to me
That you're really here, you don't wanna leave
I've been waiting forever, ever
And I've been thinking, you'd never, ever come around
You're here, it's clear that you're gonna stay
Those parts of the past we'll throw away
And I don't wanna let you go
'cause in my heart I know
You know everything about me
I don't wanna wake up from this dream
Then the alarm rings
