2009 Studio Cast of “Allegro”
So Far
Scene: Part of the Woodland
(BEULAH, the sister of Charlie's girlfriend, with JOE)
[BEULAH]
No keepsakes have we
For days that are gone
No fond recollections
To look back upon
No song that we love
No scene to recall
We have no traditions at all
We have nothing to remember so far
So far
So far, we haven't walked by night
And shared the light of a star
So far, your heart has never fluttered so near
So near
That my own heart alone could hear it
We havеn't gone beyond the vеry beginning
We've just begun to know how lucky we are
So we have nothing to remember so far
So far
But now I'm face to face with you
And now, at last, we've met
And now we can look forward to
The things we'll never forget
(She puts her head on his knees. He makes up his mind to kiss her. JENNIE appears in his thoughts.)
We haven't gone beyond the very beginning
We've just begun to know how lucky we are
So we have nothing to remember so far
So far
But now I'm face to face with you
And now, at last, we've met
And now we can look forward to
The things we'll never forget
(Calling to him seductively)
Joe...
(No answer. She leans over and looks at him tenderly.)
The little louse is asleep!
