MARRY ME A LITTLE

Music & Lyrics: Stephen Sondheim

Marry me a little

Love me just enough

Cry but not too often

Play but not too rough

Keep a tender distance

So we'll both be free

That's the way it ought to be

I'm ready

Marry me a little

Do it with a will

Make a few demands

I'm able to fulfill

Want me more than others

Not exclusively

That's the way it oughta be

I'm ready

I'm ready now

You can be my best friend

I can be your right arm

We'll go through a fight or two

No harm, no harm

We'll look not too deep

We'll go not too far

We won't have to give up a thing

We'll stay who we are

Right? ok then

I'm ready

I'm ready now

Someone marry me a little

Love me just enough

Warm and sweet and easy

Just the simple stuff

Keep a tender distance

So we'll both be free

That's the way it oughta be

I'm ready

I'm ready

Marry me a little

Body, heart, and soul

Passionate as hell

But always in control

Want me first and foremost

Keep me company

That's the way it oughta be

I'm ready

I'm ready now

Oh how gently we'll talk

Oh how softly we'll tred

All the stings, the ugly things

We'll keep unsaid

We'll build a cocoon

Of love and respect

You promise whatever you like

I'll never collect

Right? ok then

I'm ready

I'm ready now

Someone

I'm ready
