Lyrics
JOHANNA (Sings): He means to marry me Monday,
What shall I do? I'd rather die.
ANTHONY (Sings): I have a plan —
JOHANNA: I'll swallow poison on Sunday,
That's what I'll do, I'll get some lye.
ANTHONY: I have a plan —
JOHANNA (Stops pacing suddenly): Oh, dear, was that a noise?
ANTHONY: A plan—
JOHANNA: I think I heard a noise.
ANTHONY: A plan!
JOHANNA: It couldn't be,
He's in court,
He's in court today,
Still that was a noise,
Wasn't that a noise?
You must have heard that —
ANTHONY: Kiss me.
JOHANNA (Shyly): Oh, sir...
ANTHONY: Ah, miss ...
JOHANNA: Oh, sir ...
(She turns away, agitatedly) If he should marry me Monday,
What shall I do? I'll die of grief.
ANTHONY: We fly tonight —
JOHANNA: 'Tis Friday, virtually Sunday,
What can we do with time so brief?
ANTHONY: We fly tonight —
JOHANNA: Behind the curtain — quick!
ANTHONY: Tonight —
JOHANNA: I think I heard a click!
ANTHONY: Tonight!
JOHANNA: It was a gate!
It's the gate!
We don't have a gate. (ANTHONY) It's not a gate.
Still there was a — Wait! (ANTHONY) There's no gate,
There's another click! (ANTHONY) You don't have a gate.
You must have heard that — (ANTHONY)If you'd only listen, miss, and
ANTHONY: Kiss me!
JOHANNA: Tonight?
ANTHONY: Kiss me.
JOHANNA: You mean tonight?
ANTHONY: The plan is made.
JOHANNA: Oh, sir!
ANTHONY: So kiss me.
JOHANNA: I feel a fright.
ANTHONY: Be not afraid.
JOHANNA: Sir, I did
Love you even as I (ANTHONY) Tonight I'll steal
Saw you, even as it (ANTHONY) You
Did not matter that I, (ANTHONY) JOHANNA,
Did not know your name. (ANTHONY) I'll steal you ...
ANTHONY: It's me you'll marry on Monday,
That's what you'll do!
JOHANNA: And gladly, sir. (ANTHONY) St. Dunstan's, noon.
JOHANNA: I knew I'd be with you one day,
Even not knowing who you were. (ANTHONY) Ah, miss,
I feared you'd never come, (ANTHONY) Marry me
That you'd been called away, (ANTHONY) Marry me, miss,
That you'd been killed, (ANTHONY) Oh, marry me Monday!
Had the plague, (ANTHONY) Favor me, favor me
Were in debtor's jail, (ANTHONY) With your hand.
Trampled by a horse, (ANTHONY) Promise,
Gone to sea again, (ANTHONY) Marry me, marry me, please
Arrested by the — (ANTHONY) Oh, marry me Monday -
JOHANNA: Kiss me!
ANTHONY: Of course.
JOHANNA: Kiss me!
ANTHONY: You're sure?
JOHANNA: Kiss me!
ANTHONY (Taking her in his arms): I shall!
JOHANNA: Kiss me!
Oh, sir ...
What shall I do? I'd rather die.
