Original Broadway Cast of & Juliet
I Want It That Way (Reprise)
[William]
You are my fire
The one desire
Believe when I say
I want Anne Hathaway
[Anne]
Tell me why
[William, spoken]
Because you've always been my greatest inspiration
[Anne]
Tell me why
[William, spoken]
Because I love you with so much of my heart, that none is left to protest
[Anne]
Tell me why
[William, spoken]
Because I can write endless plays, I can write plays for days, but there will never be another Anne Hathaway
[Anne, spoken]
Mhm
[Anne]
Now I can see that wе've fallen apart
From the way that it usеd to be, yeah
[William]
No matter the distance, I want you to know
That deep down inside of me
[Romeo and (Ensemble)]
You are my fire
The one desire
You are (You are, you are, you are)
[Juliet and (Ensemble)]
Don't wanna hear you say
(Ain't nothing but a heartache)
(Ain't nothing but a mistake)
Don't wanna hear you say
(I never wanna hear you say)
[Romeo]
I want it that way
[Anne and Ensemble]
Tell me why
[William and Ensemble]
Ain't nothing but a heartache
[Anne and Ensemble]
Tell me why
[William and Ensemble]
Ain't nothing but a mistake
Tell me why
[Anne and Ensemble]
I never wanna hear you say
[William and Ensemble]
I want it that way
[Juliet, spoken]
Let's just call this a first date. A new beginning for Juliet & Romeo
[Romeo, spoken]
Sorry, why is it "Juliet & Romeo" and not "Romeo & Juliet"?
[Juliet, spoken]
Ugh, isn't it obvious?
[Juliet]
'Cause I want it that way
