Kiss Me Lyrics

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

[ANTHONY]
I have a plan—

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

[ANTHONY]
I have a plan—

[JOHANNA]
Oh, dear, was that a noise?

[ANTHONY]
A plan—

[JOHANNA]
I think I heard a noise

[ANTHONY]
A plan!

[JOHANNA]
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—

[ANTHONY]
Kiss me!

[JOHANNA]
Oh, sir

[ANTHONY]
Ah, miss

[JOHANNA]
Oh, sir...

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

[ANTHONY]
We fly tonight—

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

[ANTHONY]
We fly tonight—

[JOHANNA]
Behind the curtain—quick!

[ANTHONY]
Tonight—

[JOHANNA]
I think I heard a click!

[ANTHONY]
Tonight!

[JOHANNA, ANTHONY]
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—

[ANTHONY]
Kiss me!

[JOHANNA]
Tonight?

[ANTHONY]
Kiss me

[JOHANNA]
You mean tonight?

[ANTHONY]
The plan is made

[JOHANNA]
Oh, sir!

[ANTHONY]
So kiss me

[JOHANNA]
I feel a fright

[ANTHONY]
Be not afraid

[JOHANNA]
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

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

[JOHANNA]
And gladly, sir

[ANTHONY]
St. Dunstan's, noon

[JOHANNA, ANTHONY]
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

Oh, sir
