Balcony Scene: Tonight

MARIA
Only you, you're the only thing I'll see forever
In my eyes, in my words and in everything I do
Nothing else but you
Ever

TONY
And there's nothing for me but Maria
Every sight that I see is Maria

MARIA
Tony, Tony...

TONY
Always you, every thought I'll ever know
Everywhere I go, you'll be

MARIA
All the world is only you and me...

Tonight, tonight
It all began tonight
I saw you and the world went away
Tonight, tonight
There's only you tonight
What you are, what you do, what you say

TONY
Today
All day I had a feeling
A miracle would happen
I know now I was right

For here you are
And what was once a world is a star
Tonight

TONY and MARIA
Tonight, tonight
The world is full of light
With suns and moons all over the place
Tonight, tonight
The world is wild a bright
Going mad, shooting sparks into space

Today, the world was just an address
A place for me to live in
No better than alright

But here you are
And what was once a world is a star
Tonight

OFFSTAGE VOICE (spoken)
Maruca!

MARIA
Wait for me!

TONY (sung)
Tonight, tonight
It all began tonight
I saw you and the world went away...

MARIA (spoken)
I cannot stay. Go quickly!

TONY
I'm not afraid

MARIA
They are strict with me. Please

TONY
Goodnight

MARIA
Buenas noches

TONY
I love you

MARIA
Yes, yes. Hurry. Wait! When will I see you?

TONY
Tomorrow

MARIA
I work at the bridal shop. Come there

TONY
At sundown

MARIA
Yes. Goodnight

TONY
Goodnight

MARIA
Tony!

TONY
Shhh!

MARIA
Come to the back door

TONY
Si

MARIA
Tony! What does Tony stand for?

TONY
Anton

MARIA
Te adoro, Anton

TONY
Te adoro, Maria

TONY and MARIA (sung)
Good night, good night
Sleep well and when you dream
Dream of me
Tonight
