[KENNETH]
All night long I've waited
Feeling it was fated
I would meet wonderful you
[PEGGY]
I have heard that dangers
Lurk in meeting strangers
That's what one never should do
[KENNETH]
Don't you care to know me, then?
[PEGGY]
I'll explain it all again:
I came in, thought I'd been here before
[KENNETH]
Tell me more, tell me more, tell me more
[PEGGY]
Heard a sound, looked around, finding you
It was chance and not romance that brought me to you
Now you know, I must go—
[KENNETH]
I implore
You to stay, don't go 'way, tell me more
[PEGGY]
Though I'm leaving now, I wish somehow
That we had met before
[KENNETH]
That's a start—Have a heart, tell me more!
I believe now that we've met before
[PEGGY]
Well, if you're very sure, tell me more
[KENNETH]
You were mine in divine days of yore
When I used to fight the other cavemen for you
[PEGGY, spoken]
Ha ha ha ha
[KENNETH]
That's not half—Please, don't laugh—I implore
[PEGGY]
I don't mind, I'm resigned, tell me more
[KENNETH]
And I knew you right away tonight
When you came through that door
[PEGGY]
I despise all your lies! Tell me more!
