<br>

[WITCH]<br>

What did I clearly say?<br>

Children must listen.<br>

<br>

[RAPUNZEL]<br>

No, no, please!<br>

<br>

[WITCH]<br>

What were you not to do?<br>

Childrem must see-<br>

<br>

[RAPUNZEL]<br>

No!<br>

<br>

[WITCH]<br>

And learn.<br>

<br>

Why could you not obey?<br>

Children should listen.<br>

What have I been to you?<br>

What would you have me be?<br>

Handsome like a Prince?<br>

<br>

Ah, but I am old.<br>

I am ugly.<br>

I embarass you.<br>

<br>

[RAPUNZEL]<br>

No!<br>

<br>

[WITCH]<br>

You are ashamed of me.<br>

<br>

[RAPUNZEL]<br>

No!<br>

<br>

[WITCH]<br>

You are ashamed.<br>

You don't understand.<br>

<br>

[RAPUNZEL]<br>

It was lonely atop that tower.<br>

<br>

[WITCH]<br>

I was not company enough?<br>

<br>

[RAPUNZEL]<br>

I am no longer a child. I wish to see the world.<br>

<br>

[WITCH]<br>

Don't you know what's out there in the world?<br>

Someone has to shield you from the world.<br>

Stay with me.<br>

<br>

Princes wait there in the world, it's true.<br>

Princes, yes, but wolves and humans, too.<br>

Stay at home.<br>

I am home.<br>

<br>

Who out there could love you more than I?<br>

What out there that I cannot supply?<br>

Stay with me.<br>

<br>

Stay with me,<br>

The world is dark and wild.<br>

Stay a child while you can be a child.<br>

With me.<br>

<br>
