? Tonight
?MARIA
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,
Ev'ry sight that I see is Maria.
?MARIA
Tony, Tony.
? ?TONY
? Always you, ev'ry thought I'll ever know,
? Ev'rywhere I go, you'll be, you and me!
?
? ?MARIA
? All the world is only you and me!
(They kiss.)
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.
Todat, 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!
?BOTH
Tonight, tonight,
The world is full of light,
With suns and moons all over the place.
Tonight, tonight,
The world is wild and bright,
Going mad, shooting sparks into space.
Today the world was just an address,
A place for me to live in,
No better than all right,
But here you are
And what was just a world is a star
Tonight!
(They kiss. Maria goes inside.)
?TONY
Tonight, Tonight,
It all began tonight.
I saw you and the world went away.
?MARIA (returning) : I cannot stay. Go quickly!
?TONY : I'm not afraid.
?MARIA : They are strict with me. Please
?TONY : I love you.
?MARIA : Yes, yes, hurry.
Go! ( He climbs down.) Buenas noches.
?TONY : Buenas noches.
?MARIA : Wait! When will I see you? (He starts back up.)
?TONY : Tomorrow.
?MARIA : I work at the bridal shop. Come there.
?TONY : At sundown.
?MARIA : Yes. Good night.
?TONY : Good night. (starts off)
?MARIA : Tony!
?TONY : Ssh!
?MARIA : Come to the back door.
?TONY : Si.
?MARIA : Tony! (He stops.) What does Tony stand for?
?TONY : Anton.
?MARIA : Te adoro, Anton.
?TONY : Te adoro, Maria.
?BOTH
Good night, good night,
Sleep well and when you dream,
Dream of me
Tonight.
