If You Were My Beloved

I would build a cabin right at your gate
'Cause my heart would be chained to your floor
I would call up to your window
'Til you open up the door
If you were my beloved
If you were my beloved

I'd write you songs of unanswered love
And sing 'em loud, late at night, without shame
I would shout it from the rooftops
'Til the heavens knew your name
If you were my beloved
If you were my beloved
If you were my beloved

What is your parentage?

Above my fortunes, yet my state is well
I am a gentleman

Get you to your lord
I cannot love him
Let him send no more
Unless, perchance, you come to me again
To tell me how he takes it

Farewell, fair cruelty

Oh, I feel a fever rise in my heart
From the heat of this face
As he plans
Olivia, be cautious
Are you falling far too fast?

Could he be my beloved?
Could he be my beloved?

What, ho, Malvolio?

Here, Madam! At your service!

Run after that same peevish messenger
He left this ring behind him
Tell him I'll none of it
I am not for him
If that the youth will come this way to-morrow
I'll give him reasons for't
Hie thee, Malvolio

Madam, I will

I don't know what I'm doing!

Honest love, but I'll never win it
She could have him in a minute
(What will she say?)
The choice, isn't it ironic?
(To the boy, he's quite charming)
Oh, must he be mine
(I hope, someday, she falls ever quietly head-over-heels)
So she can see
How it feels

I could throw all my sorrow away
And play joyful tunes on repeat

So sweet!

Alone in puzzle pieces
But I would be complete
If you were my beloved (If you were my beloved)
(If you were my beloved)
If you were my beloved
Ooh-ooh-ooh
