Kiss Me

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 there 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 time so brief? (We fly tonight)
Behind the curtain quick (Tonight)
I think I heard a click (Tonight)
It was the gate, it's the gate
We don't have a gate, still there was a, wait (It's not a gate, there's no gate)
Wasn't that click you must have heard that (You don't have gate, if you'd only listen, miss, and—)

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 love you even as I saw you (Tonight I'll steal you)
Even as it did not matter that I did not know your name (Johanna, 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!

I feared you'd never come, that you'd been sent away (Ah miss, marry me, marry me miss oh marry me Monday)
That you'd been killed, had the plague, were in debtors jail (Favour me, favour me with your hand, promise)
Trampled by a horse, gone to sea again, arrested by the— (Marry me, marry me miss, oh marry me Monday)
Kiss me (Of course)
Kiss me (You're sure?)
Kiss me (I shall)

Kiss me, oh sir
