Stephen Sondheim's 1966 television musical Evening Primrose the Musical - When Lyrics
CHARLES: Ella look at me, this way Ella, Ella concentrate hard Ella, hear me and turn before I deal another card
ELLA: No don't look at me, don't look up, Charles If you look at me, then I will look at you, happily And they will see how much I like you
CHARLES: When will I ever see you, Ella When will we meet, when will we speak When will I once again touch your cheek, when...
ELLA: When will we meet, I long to know, Charles How do you dance? How do you smoke? What is a party? What is a joke? But when...
CHARLES: I pass, I pass, I pass the hours planning Things to teach you
ELLA: I pass the hours planning Ways to reach you
CHARLES & ELLA: When, when, when
CHARLES: One heart, one heart One heart is beating wildly Can she hear it?
ELLA: One heart is beating wildly Charles is near it When...
CHARLES: When will we be alone together When will we meet?
ELLA: When will we be alone together?
CHARLES: When can we speak?
ELLA: When will we meet?
CHARLES: When can I once again touch your cheek?
ELLA: When can we speak?
CHARLES & ELLA: When can I once again touch your cheek? When?
CHARLES: Ella gay as a tarantella Pure as larks singing a capella Let my poem be your umbrella Ella, poets who suffer pain Should fall in love with girls named Jane, not Ella
ELLA: When will we meet I long to know What songs do you like? Where are you from? Have you been married? Why did you come? When?
CHARLES: When Ella, when I long to teach your Eyes how to read, hands how to write Lips how to spell, but night after night When...
I see you scouring and mending, pale and dreamy Bending and pretending not to see me When, when, when...
ELLA: I see you smile at me in Notions while I'm cooking Cover your emotions, Charles, they're looking When...
CHARLES: When will we ever be together? When is the time?
ELLA: When will we ever be together?
CHARLES: Where is the place?
ELLA: When is the time?
CHARLES: When will I once again touch your face?
ELLA: Where is the place?
CHARLES & ELLA: When will I once again touch your face? When, when, when, when, when...
ELLA: When will we meet I long to know What songs do you like? Where are you from? Charles, am I ugly, Charles, am I dumb Charles, do you like me? Charles, could you love me? Charles?
CHARLES: Harkins absent: the daylight darkens Ella what kind of coward am I, this I will not allow Ella, what if they do their worst, I'll see you first We'll be together...
Now Ella, now girl, I shall show your Hands how to touch, eyes how to glow Lips how to kiss, I've so much to show Then you will blossom, then you will grow And then.. then... then...
