Agony lyrics

Cinderella`s Prince
Did I abuse her
Or show her disdain?
Why does she run from me?
If I should lose her,
How shall i regain
The heart she has won from me?

Agony!
Beyond power of speech,
When the one thing you want
Is the only thing out of your reach.

Rapunzel`s Prince
High in her tower,
She sits by the hour,
Maintaining her hair.
Blithe and becoming,
and frequently humming
A lighthearted air:
Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-

Agony!
Far more painful than yours,
When you know she would go with you
If there only were doors.

Both
Agony!
Oh, the torture they teach!

Rapunzel`s Prince
What`s an intriguing?

Cinderella`s Prince
Of half so fatiguing?

Both
As what`s out of reach?

Cinderella`s Prince
Am i not sensitive,
Clever,
Well-mannered,
Considerate,
Passionate,
Charming,
As kind as I`m handsome
And heir to a throne?

Rapunzel`s Prince
You are everthing maiden`s could wish for!

Cinderella`s Prince
Then why no?

Rapunzel`s Prince
Do i know?

Cinderella`s Prince
The girl must be mad!

Rapunzel`s Prince
You know nothing of madness
Till you`re climbing her hair
And you see her up there
As you`re nearing her,
All the while hearing her:
Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-

Both
Agony!

Cinderella`s Prince
Misery!

Rapunzel`s Prince
Woe!

Both
Though it`s different for each.

Cinderella`s Prince
Always ten steps behind

Rapunzel`s Prince
Always ten steps below

Both
And she`s just out of reach.
Agony!
That can cut like a knife!

I must have her to wife
