Oh, just look!
It’s like I’m in a storybook.
Oh, it’s bliss!
I dreamed that it would be
somewhat-
but not
like… this!
Look over there,
some applause!
How very odd
and what might they be?
Something splendid, maybe?
Look over here!
Could you bust?
Isn’t it just
bedazzling, dazing,
utterly amazing,
gazing ’round, why you could cry!
Just seeing it feels so good,
I’d scream if I only could!
I’d hoped and wished
and wanted so to be here.
Wished and prayed
and planned it to a ”t.”
Prayed and wow,
just look – it’s really me here!
Walking around, strange as it seems,
somewhere beyond my wildest dreams!
Look at her there,
looking ’round,
won’t make a sound)
(Just keeps on gawking –
weird how she’s not talking!)
(Look at her stare…)
(Lucky miss!)
(Chosen like this
to stay for dinner.)
(What does he see in her?)
(Hush now, girls – she’s simply shy!)
(Hmph!)
(Just picture the table chat!)
(One sided, if even that!)
I’d hoped and wished
and wondered what I’d do here.
Wished and prayed
and pictured what I’d see.
Prayed and wow,
my prayers are coming true here!
Look at it all, look how it gleams,
lovely beyond my wildest dreams…
Look – it’s him,
so handsome and refined and slim.
Sweet, sincere,
magnificent from head to toe,
and oh…
I’d hoped and wished
my life would feel enchanted!
Wished and prayed
the fates would hear my plea.
Prayed and wow,
my prayers are more than granted!
Look at it all, hall after hall,
perfect as you could please here!
Marvels galore and even more,
gee did I mention he’s here?
And if – who knows? – all of it goes,
past even these extremes…
Just look at me and you will see
someone beyond her wildest dreams!
