original broadway cast of into the woods - agony lyrics

Loading...

[cinderella’s prince]
did i abuse her or show her disdain?
why does she run from me?
if i should lose her, how shall i regain
the heart she has won from me?
agony! beyond power of speech
when the one thing you want
is the only thing out of your reach

[rapunzel’s prince]
high in her tower, she sits by the hour
maintaining her hair
blithe and becoming, and frequently humming
a lighthearted air… a-a-a-a-a-a-ah..
agony! far more painful than yours!
when you know she would go with you
if there only were doors!

[both]
agony! oh the torture they teach!

[rapunzel’s prince]
what’s as intriguing—

[cinderella’s prince]
or half so fatiguing—

[both]
as what’s out of reach?

[cinderella’s prince]
am i not sensitive, clever, well-mannered, considerate
p-ssionate, charming, as kind as i’m handsome
and heir to the throne?!

[rapunzel’s prince]
you are everything maidens could wish for

[cinderella’s prince]
then why no?

[rapunzel’s prince]
do i know?

[cinderella’s prince]
the girl must be mad!

[rapunzel’s prince]
you know nothing of madness…
…till you’re climbing her hair, and you see her
up there, as you’re nearing her
all the while hearing her ‘a-a-a-a-a-a-ah.’

[both]
agony!

[cinderella’s prince]
misery!

[rapunzel’s prince]
woe!

[both]
though it’s different for each

[cinderella’s prince]
always ten steps behind—

[rapunzel’s prince]
always ten feet below—

[both]
and she’s just out of reach
agony that can cut like a knife!
i must have her to wife
