I've Decided to Marry You
Mr Navarro
Forgive my intrusion.
I needed to see you.
And see you today!
Mr Navarro, Mr Navarro
I have arrived at a stunning conclusion
And I feared I would lose my resolve
If I didn't come here directly to say.
I've decided to marry you.
I've decided to marry you.
I've decided though Henry's gone that life goes on for me.
I have thoroughly thought it through.
And the man that I want is you.
Though it's true there are quite a few who strongly disagree.
Nonetheless I will marry you.
I confess that I'm frightened too.
But unless I am wrong
You long for love as much as I.
This is quite unconventional, I'll admit,
But why should that matter a wit?
And if you do not say yes at once
I think I'll die.
Miss D'ysquith, you've rendered me speechless.
May I call you Phoebe?
What am I doing here
This could be dangerous,
If I'm discovered, imagine the scandal
And I couldn't handle a scandal so visible
I'll stay invisible
Still as can be.
But what's going on there
I can hear voices
I recognise Monty
But is that a woman?
And if that's a woman
What is she doing here?
Is it the cousin
I wish I could see.
If it's that cousin
It might just be business
It's family business
And none of my business.
But why is she here in the home of a bachelor?
Of course one could point out that I'm here as well...
But does she not realize this situation
Puts her reputation severely in question
The merest suggestion could cause a sensation
And I cannot hear, which is hell.
I'll be warned not to marry you
I could go home
I'll be scorned if I marry you
I should go home
Still I've decided to live again
Live my life and be a wife again
Who'd believe how my life has turned
I should be off
After grieving I quickly learned
But he makes me laugh!
There is nothing can bend the will like half Castilian men
And there's goodness to spare in you
Well isn't this fun.
And a gentleness there in you
Isn't she done?
You have taken a wounded bird and taught her how to fly!
Funny business, my life!
This is quite unconventional, is it not
Rather a turn in the plot,
And so will I be your fiancee?
Why don't you send the cow away?
Phoebe darling
When I recall this day I think I'll cry.
(Scream)
What was that?
What was what?
That sound- Is there someone here?
No, pay no attention!
That's... my new manservant!
He's just finding his way around.
I'll be with you in a moment...
Wadsworth.
Isn't this madness
Who could foresee
How one trick of timing could ruin it all.
One in the parlour, one in the bedroom
Nothing between them but me and a wall.
Look at Phoebe, noble and pious
My esteem for her only grows,
But when I am with Phoebe
I am on fire, thinking of
Sibella, full of desire, passion
And dare I say it, love.
But when I'm with Sibella
Whom do I admire, none but
Phoebe, perfect and lovely
Who couldn't love her, heaven knows.
Round and round and round it goes!
How happy I'd be to be at your disposal
My darling of course I accept your proposal!
Now we should kiss.
That would be bliss
Darling, but first I'll say this, I've decided to marry you.
Phoebe!
What are we doing?
I've decided to marry you.
Sibella!
What are they doing?
Phoebe!
I wish this wall would fall and set me free
Then again Isabella
Monty!
Yes I've decided to marry you
Monty!
Phoebe!
I could marry you
Oh Monty
look what you've done to me!
Monty
Phoebe
Monty
Wadsworth
Monty, Monty
Monty, Monty
Monty, Monty, Monty, Monty
I am grateful indeed for your gracious bestowment
Yes Wadsworth I told you
I'll be just a moment!
Now Monty dear, I think I now should go.
Oh no!
But I still want to marry you
Even so
I've decided to marry you
Just go
How I'm longing to marry you
Yes I'm delighted to marry you, marry you, marry you/
Shame you must go
Go
Go
Go
Go
I'll go!
Forgive my intrusion.
I needed to see you.
And see you today!
