I don't what to call her!
She's too vibrant for a name!
What shall I call her...Juliet!
Yes, dear
Helena!
Yes, dear!
And Cassandra, and Cleopatra, and Beatrice
And also Guenevere
What dear?
I think she's there.
Can you hear me?
Barely.
I've been speaking of you.
To Whom?
To them. I told them that if someone were to ask me to describe you, I would be utterly and totally speechless. Except to say perhaps, you are Polaris or the inside of a leaf.
Speak a little louder!
I love you!
Ah ah ah ah aaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
If I were in the desert deep in sand,
And the sun was burning like a hot pomegranate:
Walking through a nightmare in the heat of a summer day,
Until my mind was parch-ed!
Then you are water...
Cool, clear water...
A refreshing glass of water!
What dear?
Water!
Ah ah ah aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
Love! You are love!
Better far than a metaphor
Can ever, ever be.
Love! You are love!
My mystery of love!
If the world was like an iceberg,
And everything was frozen,
And tears turned into icicles in the eye!
And snow came pouring
And sleet and ice
Came stabbing like a knife!
Then you are heat!
A fire alive with heat!
A flame that thaws the iceberg with its heat!
Repeat!
You are heat!
Ah ah ah aaaaaaaaaaa!
Love! (I am love!)
You are love! (I am love!)
Better far than a metaphor
Can ever, ever be.
Love! (I am love!)
You are love! (I am love!)
My mystery (His mystery)
Of love!
You are Polaris,
The one trustworthy star.
You are! (I am!)
You are! (I am!)
You are September,
A special mystery
To me! (To he!)
To me! (To he!)
You are sunlight! Moonlight!
Mountains! Valleys!
The microscopic inside of a leaf!
My joy! (Yes, I am his joy!)
My grief! (Yes, I am his grief!)
My star! (Yes, I am his star!)
My leaf! (Yes, I am his leaf!)
Oh. Love! (I am love!)
You are love! (I am love!)
Better far than a metaphor
Can ever, ever be.
Love! (I am love!)
You are love! (I am love!)
My mystery (His mystery)
Of love...
Love...
Love...!

@haakkuu12 I'll try, but they don't really like our director and they won't do it cause they say it's not fun anymore, but i feel like with the right cast it could be fun.

Tell them to do it. I performed it last year as the role of El Gallo. Truly, truly magical.

@vocaloidlover98 He was just on Broadway as Algernon in Bedford's Importance of Being Ernest! Search "Jersey Shore Gone Wilde" and you can see him do quotes from the terrible TV show in full stuffy British style.

Could you post "Round and Round" when you get the chance? It's one of my favorite songs from the musical but I can't find a recording (besides a few high school productions) anywhere!
