NARRATOR<br>
And it came to pass, all that seemed wrong<br>
was now right, and those who deserved to <br>
were certain to live a long and happy life.<br>
Ever after... <br>
<br>
COMPANY<br>
Ever after! <br>
<br>
NARRATOR<br>
Journey over, all is mended,<br>
And it's not just for today,<br>
But tomorrow, and extended<br>
Ever after! <br>
<br>
COMPANY<br>
Ever after! <br>
<br>
NARRATOR<br>
All the curses have been ended,<br>
The reverses wiped away.<br>
All is tenderness and laughter<br>
For forever after! <br>
<br>
COMPANY<br>
Happy now and happy hence<br>
And happy ever after! <br>
<br>
NARRATOR<br>
There were dangers- <br>
<br>
COMPANY<br>
We were frightened- <br>
<br>
NARRATOR<br>
And confusions- <br>
<br>
COMPANY<br>
But we hid it- <br>
<br>
NARRATOR<br>
And the paths would often swerve. <br>
<br>
COMPANY<br>
We did not. <br>
<br>
NARRATOR<br>
There were constant- <br>
<br>
COMPANY<br>
It's amazing- <br>
<br>
NARRATOR<br>
Disillusions- <br>
<br>
COMPANY<br>
That we did it. <br>
<br>
NARRATOR<br>
But they never lost they're nerve. <br>
<br>
COMPANY<br>
Not a lot. <br>
<br>
NARRATOR AND COMPANY<br>
And they/we reached the right conclusions<br>
And they/we got what they/we deserved! <br>
<br>
ALL<br>
Not a sigh and not a sorrow,<br>
Tenderness and laughter.<br>
Joy today and bliss tomorrow,<br>
And forever after! <br>
<br>
FLORINDA<br>
I was greedy. <br>
<br>
LUCINDA<br>
I was vain. <br>
<br>
FLORINDA<br>
I was haughty. <br>
<br>
LUCINDA<br>
I was smug. <br>
<br>
BOTH<br>
We were happy.<br>
<br>
LUCINDA<br>
It was fun. <br>
<br>
FLORINDA<br>
But we were blind. <br>
<br>
BOTH<br>
Then we went into the woods<br>
To get our wish,<br>
And now we're really blind. <br>
<br>
WITCH<br>
I was perfect.<br>
I had everything but beauty.<br>
I had power, <br>
And a daughter like a flower, <br>
In a tower.<br>
Then I went into the woods<br>
To get my wish,<br>
And now I'm ordinary.<br>
Lost my power and my flower. <br>
<br>
FLORINDA AND LUCINDA<br>
We're unworthy. <br>
<br>
FLORINDA, LUCINDA, WITCH<br>
We're/I'm unhappy now, unhappy hence,<br>
As well as ever after.<br>
Had we used our common sense,<br>
Been worthy of our discontents,<br>
We'd be happy. <br>
<br>
ALL<br>
To be happy, and forever,<br>
You must see your wish come true.<br>
Don't be careful, don't be clever.<br>
When you see your wish, pursue.<br>
It's a dangerous endeavor,<br>
But the only thing to do- <br>
<br>
Though it's fearful,<br>
Though it's deep, though it's dark,<br>
And though you may lose your path,<br>
Though you may encounter wolves,<br>
You mustn't stop,<br>
You mustn't swerve,<br>
You mustn't ponder,<br>
You have to act!<br>
When you know your wish,<br>
If you want your wish,<br>
You can have your wish,-<br>
No, to get your wish <br>
<br>
You go into the woods,<br>
Where nothing's clear,<br>
Where witches, ghosts<br>
And wolves appear.<br>
Into the woods<br>
And through the fear,<br>
You have to take the journey. <br>
<br>
Into the woods<br>
And down the dell,<br>
In vain, perhaps,<br>
But who can tell?<br>
Into the woods to lift the spell,<br>
Into the woods to lose the longing,<br>
Into the woods to have the child,<br>
To wed the Prince,<br>
To get the money,<br>
to save the house,<br>
To kill the Wolf,<br>
To find the father,<br>
To conquer the kingdom,<br>
To have, to wed, <br>
To get, to save,<br>
To kill, to keep,<br>
To go to the festival! <br>
<br>
Into the woods,<br>
Into the woods,<br>
Into the woods,<br>
Then out of the woods<br>
And happy ever after! <br>
<br>
