The Wide Open World


Here it is another day
Trying hard just to carry on
"Bring me my breakfast and sweep up the floor"
That's all I hear night and noon

Sometimes I want to run away
But this where I'm going to be
So I do, I keep wondering
If there's something more for me

Down the meadow, past the ravine
Does to grass grow, greener than green?
Are there places I've never dreamed of
Out in the wide open world?

Somewhere there's a miller's son
Just as handsome as anything
White ribboned ladies parade in the square
Longing to cling to his arm

Look at me, just a peasant girl
Destined to cling to her plough
So I do,...

When the world outside comes
Whirling like a windstorm
And it seems my fondest dreams
Have faded all from view

This is where you’ll find me
In my magic palace
Turning every storm cloud
A lovely sky of blue

In my kingdom here
With no one but me
I can wish the world
The way it should be

Suddenly there’s kindness, poetry and art
In my kingdom of the heart

Looking in her eyes there
I become the princess
Floating on the ballroom floor
In petticoats of lace

People bowing gently
Caring for each other

Every moment filled with grace

In my perfect place
Where songs will inpire
Every family blessed...

Rollo: Once there was a light here, now it’s gone forever
Daria: Gone forever.
Rollo: How blind was I? To say goodbye, to one so warm and pure
Daria: Everything I lived for.

Rollo: She was all I lived for
Daria: Where can he be?
Rollo: If only I had told her
Daria: What’s left for me?
Rollo: If only I could hold her in these lonely arms once more

Daria: I would gladly give my life
Rollo: I would give my life
Both: Meet death without fear. If for just one moment
Daria: He could be here
Rollo: She could be here
Daria: Lying there in pieces
Both: Falling all apart, is my kingdom of the heart.

Both: Oh tell me dear God, where on Earth can I go?
Where the face of my true love won’t follow.

All the stars above, have lost all their shine.
Merry music nevermore to be mine
Daria: Where am I to roam now?
Rollo: How am I to start?
Both: No more going home now, to my kingdom of the heart.
