Kiss Me (Pt. 1)

He means to marry me Monday
What shall I do? I'd rather die

I have a plan—

I'll swallow poison on Sunday
That's what I'll do, I'll get some lye

I have a plan—

Oh, dear, was that a noise? (A plan—)
I think I heard a noise (A plan!)

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—

Kiss me!

Oh, sir

Ah, miss

Oh, sir

If he should marry me Monday
What shall I do? I'll die of grief

We fly tonight—

'Tis Friday, virtually Sunday
What can we do with time so brief?

We fly tonight—

Behind the curtain—quick! (Tonight—)
I think I heard a click! (Tonight!)

It was a gate!
It's the gate!
We don't have a gate (It's not a gate)
Still there was a— (Wait! There's no gate)
There's another click! (You don't have a gate)
You must have heard that... (If you'd only listen, miss—)

Kiss me!

Tonight?

Kiss me

You mean tonight?

The plan is made

Oh, sir!

So kiss me

I feel a fright

Be not afraid

Sir, I did (Tonight I'll)
Love you even as I (Steal)
Saw you, even as it (You)
Did not matter that I (Johanna)
Did not know your name (I'll steal you)

It's me you'll marry on Monday
That's what you'll do!

And gladly, sir

St. Dunstan's, noon

I knew I'd be with you one day
Even not knowing who you were (Ah, miss)
I feared you'd never come (Marry me, marry me, miss)
That you'd been called away (Oh, marry me Monday!)
That you'd been killed (Favor me, favor me)
Had the plague (With your hand)
Were in debtor's jail (Promise)
Trampled by a horse (Marry me, marry me)
Gone to sea again (Please)
Arrested by the— (Oh, marry me Monday)

Kiss me!

Of course

Kiss me!

You're sure?

Kiss me!

I shall!

Kiss me!
Oh, sir
