Agony.
Interprétée par Chris Pine.
(Prince de Cendrillon)
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.
(Prince de Raiponce)
High in her tower,
She sits by the hour,
Maintaining her hair.
Blithe and becoming and frequently humming
A lighthearted air:
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-
Agony!
Far more painful than yours,
When you know she would go with you
If there only were doors.
(Tous les deux)
Agony!
Oh, the torture they teach!
(Prince de Raiponce)
What’s as intriguing-
(Prince de Cendrillon)
Or half so fatiguing-
(Tous les deux)
As what’s out of reach?
(Prince de Cendrillon)
Am I not sensitive,
Clever,
Well-mannered,
Considerate,
Passionate,
Charming,
As kind as I’m handsome
And heir to a throne?
(Prince de Raiponce)
You are everything maidens could wish for!
(Prince de Cendrillon)
Then why no-?
(Prince de Raiponce)
Do I know?
(Prince de Cendrillon)
The girl must be mad!
(Prince de Raiponce)
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:
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-
(Tous les deux)
Agony!
(Prince de Cendril
lon)
Misery!
(Prince de Raiponce)
Woe!
(Tous les deux)
Though it’s different for each.
(Prince de Cendrillon)
Always ten steps behind-
(Prince de Raiponce)
Always ten feet below-
(Tous les deux)
And she’s just out of reach.
Agony
That can cut like a knife!
I must have her to wife.
