[CHARLES]
Ella, look at me
This way, Ella
Ella, concentrate hard
Ella, hear me
And turn before I deal another card

[ELLA]
No, don't look at me
Don't look up, Charles
If you look at me, then
I will look at you happily
And they will see how much I like you

[CHARLES]
When will I ever see you, Ella?
When will we meet?
When will we speak?
When will I once again touch your cheek?
When?

[ELLA]
When will we meet?
I long to know
How big is the park?
Do people fly?
Who lives in subways?
Where, what, and why
And when?

[CHARLES]
I pass
I pass, I pass the hours planning things to teach you

[ELLA]
I pass the hours planning ways to reach you

[CHARLES & ELLA]
When? When? When?

[CHARLES]
Onе heart
One heart is bеating wildly
Can she hear it?

[ELLA]
One heart is beating wildly
Charles is near it
When?

[CHARLES]
When will we be alone together
When will we meet?

[ELLA]
When will we be alone together?

[CHARLES]
When can we speak?

[ELLA]
When will we meet?

[CHARLES]
When can I once again touch your cheek?

[ELLA]
When can we speak?

[CHARLES & ELLA]
When can I once again touch your cheek?
When?

[CHARLES]
"Ella, gay as a tarantella..."
"Pure as larks singing a cappella..."
"Let my poem be your umbrella..."
Ella, poets who suffer pain
Must fall in love with girls named Jane
Not Ella

[ELLA]
I'm in love with Charles
When will we meet?
I long to know, Charles
Where are you from?
Why do you smoke?
Have you been married?
Tell me a joke
When?

[CHARLES]
When, Ella, when?
I long to teach
Your eyes how to read
Hands how to write
Lips how to spell
But night after night
When?

I see you scouring and mending
Pale and dreamy
Bending and pretending
Not to see me
When? When? When?

[ELLA]
I see you smile at me in Notions
While I'm cooking
Cover your emotions
Charles, they're looking!
When?

[CHARLES]
When will we ever be together?
When is the time?

[ELLA]
When will we ever be together?

[CHARLES]
Where is the place?

[ELLA]
When is the time?

[CHARLES]
When can I once again touch your face?

[ELLA]
Where is the place?

[CHARLES & ELLA]
When can I once again touch your face?
When? When? When?

[ELLA]
When will we meet?
I long to ask you
Why do you smoke?
Where are you from?
Charles, am I ugly?
Charles, am I dumb?
Charles, do you like me?
Charles, would you love me?
Charles...

[CHARLES]
"Harkins absent
The daylight darkens"
Ella, what kind of coward am I?
This I cannot allow!
Ella, what if they do their worst?
I'll see you first
We'll be together!

Now, Ella, now, girl
I shall show
Your hands how to touch
Eyes how to glow
Lips how to kiss
I've so much to show
Then when you're happy
Then when you're lonely
Then!
Then!
Then!
