Marry Me a Little - Your Eyes Are Blue Lyrics

Off-Broadway Musical
Marry Me a Little - Your Eyes Are Blue Lyrics

(Cut from A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum the Musical. Written by Stephen Sondheim)

MAN:
Once upon a time, it happened
There lived a boy
Who loved a girl
Your eyes are blue

And every single night, he'd see her
Across the way
I'd want to say-
He'd want to say
"Your eyes are blue
And I love you"
But, never had he spoken
Never had he dared
Beautiful as she was
I was-
He was scared

Then, suddenly one day, he met her
And he could see
Her eyes were blue
As they could be
What did he do?
Well... you tell me...

Once upon a time-

WOMAN:
Let me try
There lived a boy

MAN:
Who loved a girl

WOMAN:
Whose eyes were... blue
And every single night, she'd see him
Across the way
She hoped he'd say
"Your eyes are blue
And I love you"
And yet she knew
There was a wall between them
Built around her heart
This was their dilemma
Keeping them apart

Then suddenly one day, she met him
He looked so tall

MAN:
He felt so small

WOMAN:
What did he do...

MAN:
What could he do...

BOTH:
To break the wall?
And that was us
