lirik lagu stephen sondheim – you must meet my wife
[fredrik]
she lightens my sadness,
she livens my days,
she bursts with a kind of madness
my well-ordered ways.
my happiest mistake, the ache of my life:
you must meet my wife.
she bubbles with pleasure,
she glows with surprise,
disrupts my accustomed leisure
and ruffles my ties.
i don’t know even now quite how it began.
you must meet my wife, my anne.
one thousand whims to which i give in,
since her smallest tear turns me ashen.
i never dreamed that i could live in
so completely demented, contented a fashion.
so sunlike, so winning,
so unlike a wife.
i do think that i’m beginning
to show signs of life.
don’t ask me how at my age one still can grow–
if you met my wife, you’d know.
[desiree (speaking):]
dear fredrik,
i’m just longing to meet her.
sometime.
[fredrik]
she sparkles…
[desiree]
how pleasant.
[fredrik]
she twinkles…
[desiree]
how nice.
[fredrik]
her youth is a sort of present–
[desiree]
whatever the price.
[fredrik]
the incandescent–what?–the–
[desiree (offering a cigarette):]
light?
[fredrik]
–of my life.
you must meet my wife.
[desiree]
yes, i must. i really must.
now–
[fredrik]
she flutters.
[desiree]
how charming.
[fredrik]
she twitters.
[desiree]
my word!
[fredrik]
she floats.
[desiree]
isn’t that alarming?
what is she, a bir
