Balcony Scene (Tonight)
[Instrumental]
[MARÍA]
Only you, you’re the only thing I’ll see forever
In my eyes, in my words, and in everything I do
Nothing else but you ever
[TONY]
And there’s nothing for me but Maria
Every sight that I see is Maria
[MARÍA]
Tony, Tony...
[TONY]
Always you, every thought I’ll ever know
Everywhere I go, you’ll be
[MARÍA, with TONY]
All the world is only you and me
[MARÍA]
Tonight, tonight
It all began tonight
I saw you and the world went away
Tonight, tonight
There’s only you tonight
What you are, what you do, what you say
[TONY]
Today, all day I had the feeling
A miracle would happen
I know now I was right
For here you are
And what was just a world is a star
Tonight
[MARÍA]
Tonight, tonight
The world is full of light
[TONY]
With suns and moons all over the place
[TONY & MARÍA]
Tonight, tonight
Thе world is wild and bright
Going mad, shooting sparks into space
[TONY]
Today the world was just an address
A placе for me to live in
No better than alright
[TONY & MARÍA]
But here you are
And what was just a world is a star
Tonight!
[BERNARDO, spoken]
¡María! ¡Vente pa’dentro!
[MARÍA, spoken]
¡Sí, ya voy! ¡Me estoy vistiendo!
Tomorrow.
[TONY, spoken]
Tomorrow.
[MARÍA, spoken]
Sí, okay.
[TONY begins to climb down the balcony.]
[MARÍA, spoken]
Wait, wait!
[TONY climbs back up.]
[MARÍA, spoken]
...I forgot why I called you.
[TONY, spoken]
I'll wait 'til you remember.
[TONY & MARÍA]
Good night, good night
Sleep well and when you dream
Dream of me
Tonight
