Once Upon a Mattress the Musical - In a Little While Lyrics


HARRY:
It won't be long, it won't be long,
It won't because it can't be long
Before our dreams come true.
Because you know
I don't belong and furthermore
I shan't belong to anyone but you.

LARKEN:
In a little while,
Just a little while,
You and I will be one two, three, four.
In a little while
I shall see your smile
On the face of my son to be
Forever hand in glove
Is the way I have it planned,
But I'll only stay in love
If the glove contains your hand.

HARRY:
I can see it all down to every small detail:
So I wish you'd look around
Until you've found a castle
In the neighborhood for sale.

LARKEN: (spoken)
Oh, I already have!
It's tiny, only 27 rooms,
And the moats a mess?
But we can pick it up for a sonnet.
(sung)
My time is at a premium
For soon the world
Will see me a maternal bride to be.
I know I musn't worry, Harry,
Still I wish you'd hurry, Harry,
Harry, Marry me!

HARRY:
In a little while,
Just a little while,
You and I will be one two, three, four.
In a little while I will see your smile
On the face of my son to be;

BOTH:
Forever hand in glove is the way
I have it planned,

LARKEN:
I have it planned

HARRY:
But I'll only stay in love

BOTH:
If the glove contains your hand.

LARKEN:
Oh Harry!

HARRY:
In a velvet gown you'll be
Coming down the aisle?

LARKEN:
I'll be humming?

BOTH:
And it's bound to seem
As though the waiting's
Only been a little in a little while.
