Now then business melanie what did lord sheere say to you last night
Not very much but he was very ardent
Good he is coming here this morning
This morning
Yes I wrote him a note from you I will recieve him and when
I have talked with him for a little he will propose marriage
He seemed last night to wish for something a little less binding
Never mind when he proposes you will accept him
When may I love somebody please
Not until you are safely married and then only with the greatest discretion
I see
What is the matter
It doesn't feel like my birthday anymore
A cloud has passed across the sun
The morning seems no longer gay
I had better get on with these bills you had better go and dress
Very well
With so much business to be done
Even the sea looks grey
Not be silly
Cest vrai
Cest vrai
It seems that all the joy has faded from the day
As though the foolish world no longer wants to play
Do go and dress melanie
What shall I wear a balck crpe with a lace bonnet
What is the matter with you this morning
White white for a bride but the sun ought to shine on a bride
You are not a bride yet
But I shall be soon shall I not a very quiet
Aristocratic bride with a discrete heart
You ask me to have a discreet heart
Until marriage is out of the way
But what if I meet
With a sweetheart so sweet
That my wayward heart cannot obey
A single word that you may say
Then we shall have to go away
No for there is nowhere we could go
Where we could hide from what we know
Is true
Do stop talking nonsense
It is not nonsense you are so sure that everything
In life can be arranged just so like arithmetic
Why not emotion is so very untidy
The sun has come out again I feel a little better
Good
I'm sorry
Merci ma ch é ri
Don't be afraid I'll betray you
And destroy all the plans you have made
But even your schemes
Must leave room for my dreams
So when all I owe to you is paid
I'll still have something of my own
A little prize that's mine alone
I'll follow my secret heart
My whole life through
I'll keep all my dreams apart
Till one comes true
No matter what price is paid
What stars may fade
Above
I'll follow my secret heart
Till I find love
No matter what price is paid
What stars may fade
Above
I'll follow my secret heart
Till I find love
