When We Are Wed - Once on This Island Ensemble/LaChanze/Nikki Rene/Jerry Dixon[00:00:00]
Written by:Lynn Ahrens/Stephen Flaherty[00:00:00]
My dear mademoiselle I have something to say[00:00:00]
Something I fear was left unsaid[00:00:04]
Many thanks for all you've given daniel[00:00:07]
But do not be misled[00:00:11]
My dear mademoiselle you dance so very well[00:00:15]
I pray you'll dance for daniel[00:00:20]
And for me when we are wed[00:00:24]
Ti moune andrea and I have been promised[00:00:32]
To each other since we were children[00:00:35]
Our parents are old friends[00:00:37]
But daniel this is how things are done[00:00:40]
Ti moune it's expected[00:00:42]
Daniel please we can still be together[00:00:44]
We'll race away in a car[00:00:48]
I can't change who I am or where I'm from[00:00:51]
As silver as the moon[00:00:55]
There will always be a place for you here[00:00:58]
We will live beside the sea[00:01:01]
We'll have children[00:01:05]
A garden and a tree[00:01:08]
Ti moune I thought you understood[00:01:15]
We can never marry[00:01:18]
Oh gods oh gods are you there[00:01:24]
Are you there[00:01:35]
There can never be anything[00:01:43]
Between a peasant and a grand home[00:01:44]
They despise us for our blackness[00:01:47]
Marry you you are mad[00:01:49]
You're not supposed to be in here[00:01:50]
Now what can he want[00:01:52]
With a woman like that[00:01:53]
If he lives how angry the gods will be[00:01:54]
The boy has the will of the devil himself[00:01:55]
He'll soon throw her out[00:01:57]
What can a peasant do for a grand home[00:01:58]
But shine his shoes[00:02:00]
He will not want you ti moune[00:02:01]
Blacker than coal and low as dirt[00:02:02]
I can tell you this[00:02:04]
They'll never stand before a priest[00:02:05]
Some girls you marry some you love[00:02:06]
Oh ti moune what has this boy done to you[00:02:07]
The girl will have the gods to repay[00:02:09]
The gods to repay the gods to repay[00:02:11]
