What About Love? (Reprise)
[Shug] (spoken)
All I ask is for six months to have my last fling
[Celie]
But what about trust?
[Shug] (spoken)
I gotta have it Celie; I'm too weak of a woman not to
[Celie]
What about tenderness?
[Shug] (spoken)
But if you give me six months I'll try to make our lives together what it was
[Celie]
What about tears when I'm happy?
[Shug] (spoken)
When it's all over I'll come back to Georgia and live here if you want
[Celie] (interrupting)
What about wings when I fall?
[Shug] (spoken)
My heart hurts so much sayin' this to you
[Celie] (spoken)
You said you would be–
[Shug] (spoken)
I love this boy and I'm scared to death
[Celie]
–a story for me
[Shug] (spoken)
D'you know this boy is gonna hurt me twice as much as I'm hurtin' you
[Celie]
That I can believe in forever
So what about–
[Shug] (spoken)
Won't you please forgive me and let me come back when it's over?
[Celie] (spoken)
No! You know I love you and you still do this
No!
