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

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 (Tonight I'll steal you!)
Even as I saw you, even as it
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
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, please!)
Gone to sea again
Arrested by the — (Oh, marry me Monday —)

Kiss me
Of course!
Quickly!
You're sure?
Kiss me!
I shall!
Kiss me!
Oh, sir
