DIANA the Musical - Whatever Love Means Anyway Lyrics
Performed by Judy Kaye (Queen Elizabeth), Roe Hartrampf (Prince Charles), Erin Davie (Camilla), Jeanna de Waal (Diana), Anthony Murphy (Paul) and other Cast.
CHARLES: (spoken)
What if I'm simply not certain?
I mean, were you certain when you married?
ELIZABETH:
He got down on one knee
Yes, he did it properly
And well, that was it for me
But love evolves and bends
And men take other friends
It doesn't mean devotion ends
Love's not what you expect
Love rarely is direct
Love changes every day
Well...
Whatever love means anyway
CHARLES: (spoken)
So, then...
(sung)
I could gеt down on one knee
And do it properly
And ask you to marry me
DIANA: (spoken)
Did you just— Is this a proposal?
CHARLES: (spoken)
Wеll, it is
DIANA: (spoken)
Oh, my God
CHARLES:
I'd guard you from that bloody mess
Known as the British press
Well, that's it...
More or less
DIANA: (spoken)
What a terrible proposal
CHARLES:
And though you're just-
DIANA: (spoken)
Nineteen
CHARLES: (spoken)
Thank you
(sung)
Someday you'll be crowned Queen
The loveliest queen we've ever seen
Though it happened fast
This feeling unsurpassed
Our affection grows
Day by day
A fairy tale formalized
A nation mesmerized
Let's put our fantasy
On full display
DIANA: (spoken)
And you're truly in love with me?
CHARLES: (spoken)
I am
(sung)
Whatever love means anyway
CAST:
Whatever love means anyway
Anyway
CHARLES:
Say the word, and I'll stop it now
CAMILLA:
But the girl is quite the "wow"
I'm sure that she will satisfy
CHARLES: (spoken)
And we're certain?
CAMILLA:
We found one young and pure
Somehow, you will endure
When you get bored, just come on by
You do your duty
For your country and your honor
CHARLES:
You do your duty
For your country and your honor
BOTH:
I often think happiness is a luxury
CAST:
Was there ever
A greater tabloid tale?
She was common, she was dim
She was far from worthy of him
A fairytale about to turn grim
Diana, Diana
PAUL: (spoken)
I've been assigned to take care of you,
m'lady, if you'll come with me?
DIANA: (spoken)
But I must go back to my flat
PAUL: (spoken)
Impossible, it's engulfed in photographers
(sung)
The queen and prince decree
That you must follow me
We'll keep the outside world at bay
DIANA: (spoken)
But my kindergarten class,
I didn't even say goodbye
PAUL: sung]
Behind these noble gates
Your palace staff awaits
For safety's sake, let's lock you away
CAST:
A fairytale formalized
A nation mesmerized
Could they be more in love
Than they are today?
Love took us by surprise
(You do your duty for your country and your honor)
Happiness in disguise
(Duty for your country and your honor)
Could they be more in love
Than they are today?
Whatever love means
Whatever love means
CAMILLA:
Whatever love means
Anyway
CHARLES:
So love evolves and bends
CAMILLA:
And men take other friends
BOTH:
It doesn't mean devotion ends
[Thanks to Harman for lyrics]
