Stephen Flaherty & Lynn Aherns
When We Are Wed
[ANDREA]
Well, it’s very clear
She’s in love with you
Daniel, if you care
If you care at all, you must tell her...

[TI MOUNE, spoken]
What is it?

[ANDREA]
My dear Mademoiselle
I have something to say
Something I fear was left unsaid...
Many thanks for all you’ve given Daniel
But do not be misled
My dear Mademoiselle
You dance so very well...
I pray you’ll dance for Daniel
And for me
When we are wed
Ti Moune, Daniel and I...

[DANIEL, spoken]
Andrea and I have been promised to each other since we were children. This is how things are done, Ti Moune. It’s expected

[TI MOUNE, spoken]
Daniel, please...
[DANIEL, spoken]
There will always be a place for you here

[TI MOUNE]
We'll race away in a car —

[DANIEL, spoken]
I can’t change who I am or where I’m from

[TI MOUNE]
— As silver as the moon...

[DANIEL, spoken]
I wish it could be so

[TI MOUNE]
We will live beside the sea
We’ll have children
A garden
And a tree...

[DANIEL, spoken]
I thought you understood. We could never marry

[TI MOUNE]
Oh, gods...
Oh, gods...
Are you there?
Are you there...?
