[Laurie, sung]
I know I have no right
But sometimes late at night
I watch you in the attic
Passing back and forth like a maniac

I’ve never met a girl like you
Anyone at all like you

This is very nice
Such a lovely party
The music sounds so thrilling
It makes a person feel like dancing

(spoken)
I’m very good! I won a medal for dancing at school

[Jo, spoken]
I don’t dance. Besides, I have a patch on the back of my dress

[Laurie, spoken]
A patch? Let me see!

[Jo, spoken]
No! No!
[Laurie, spoken]
I like it. That patch could start a whole new fashion
Dance with me tonight and I guarantee by next spring
Every girl in Concord will be wearing a patch on her dress!

(sung)
We could do a hundred things
Do anything you please
We could fly on golden wings
Across the seven seas

I’ll bet you’ll get a camel through a needle
If you’ll take a chance on me

[Jo, spoken]
You’re a lunatic!

[Laurie, sung]
We could catch a thousand stars
And stand them on a pin
We could leap from here to Mars
And make the planet spin

If you want to do all the things you’ve ever dreamed of
Come on! Take a chance on me!
We could be such friends
Friends are never lonely
All I know is books
Books are solitary

But I'd see you every day
How you live in your own way
And you make me want to dare
To take a chance on you!

[Jo, spoken]
All right. We could box if you like

[Laurie, spoken]
You box?

[Jo, spoken]
You ready?

[Laurie, spoken]
I should warn you, I- I won a medal for boxing at school

[Jo, spoken]
Hm
Is that how you win medals?
[Laurie, sung]
We could live a million dreams
But only if we dare
We could go to such extremes
There’s so much we could share

We’ll circle the world
Doing all we ever dreamed of
And we’ll live in our own way
And I’ll see you every day

We’ll be the best of friends
When you take a chance on me!
