Into the Woods movie - Agony lyrics

rate me

<br>

[CINDERELLA'S PRINCE]<br>

Did I abuse her<br>

Or show her disdain?<br>

Why does she run from me?<br>

If I should lose her,<br>

How shall I regain <br>

The heart she has won from me?<br>

<br>

Agony!<br>

Beyond power of speech,<br>

When the one thing you want<br>

Is the only thing out of your reach.<br>

<br>

[RAPUNZEL'S PRINCE]<br>

High in her tower,<br>

She sits by the hour,<br>

Maintaining her hair.<br>

Blithe and becoming and frequently humming<br>

A lighthearted air:<br>

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-<br>

<br>

Agony!<br>

Far more painful than yours,<br>

When you know she would go with you<br>

If there only were doors.<br>

<br>

[BOTH]<br>

Agony!<br>

Oh, the torture they teach!<br>

<br>

[RAPUNZEL'S PRINCE]<br>

What's as intriguing-<br>

<br>

[CINDERELLA'S PRINCE]<br>

Or half so fatiguing-<br>

<br>

[BOTH]<br>

As what's out of reach?<br>

<br>

[CINDERELLA'S PRINCE]<br>

Am I not sensitive,<br>

Clever,<br>

Well-mannered,<br>

Considerate,<br>

Passionate,<br>

Charming,<br>

As kind as I'm handsome<br>

And heir to a throne?<br>

<br>

[RAPUNZEL'S PRINCE]<br>

You are everything maidens could wish for!<br>

<br>

[CINDERELLA'S PRINCE]<br>

Then why no-?<br>

<br>

[RAPUNZEL'S PRINCE]<br>

Do I know?<br>

<br>

[CINDERELLA'S PRINCE]<br>

The girl must be mad!<br>

<br>

[RAPUNZEL'S PRINCE]<br>

You know nothing of madness<br>

Till you're climbing her hair<br>

And you see her up there<br>

AS you're nearing her,<br>

All the while hearing her:<br>

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-<br>

<br>

[BOTH]<br>

Agony!<br>

<br>

[CINDERELLA'S PRINCE]<br>

Misery!<br>

<br>

[RAPUNZEL'S PRINCE]<br>

Woe!<br>

<br>

[BOTH]<br>

Though it's different for each.<br>

<br>

[CINDERELLA'S PRINCE]<br>

Always ten steps behind-<br>

<br>

[RAPUNZEL'S PRINCE]<br>

Always ten feet below-<br>

<br>

[BOTH]<br>

And she's just out of reach.<br>

Agony<br>

That can cut like a knife!<br>

<br>

I must have her to wife.<br>

<br>
