Married
Cabaret
Married
[SCULTZ (spoken)]
You're hesitant because you've never tied the knot.
It scares you. Trust me, it can do wonders...
How the world can shift
It can shift like that-
All from one little word:
"married".
See a mansion grow
From a tiny flat
All from one little word:
"Married".
And the old gloom
That was always there
Suddenly disappears
For you wake one day,
Look around and say:
Somebody amazing married me.
[FRAULEIN SCHNEIDER (spoken)]
You don't think it'd be better to just keep going
on as you were before?
[SCHULTZ]
No.
[FRAULEIN KOST]
Oh, how wonderful,
Nothing is as it was,
Through a tiny word:
"Marriage".
From the ground floor
Becomes a fairy tale castle
Through a tiny word:
"Marriage".
And the gray in gray
Suddenly turns blue,
Like no blue ever was.
And then you stand there,
Say blissfully "yes",
Today my dream
Not so gray in gray.
[whispered]
Ah! how wonderful,
Nothing is as it was,
Through a tiny word:
"Marriage".
From the ground floor
Becomes a fairy tale castle
Through a tiny word:
"Marriage".
[SCHULTZ]
And the old despair
[FRÄULEIN KOST]
And the gray
In gray
[SCHULTZ]
That was often there
[FRAULEIN KOST]
Suddenly turns
blue,
[SCHULTZ]
Suddenly ceases to be
[FRÄULEIN KOST]
Tonight
My dream
Ever was.
[SCHULTZ AND SCHNEIDER]
For you wake one day,
Look around and say:
[SCHULTZ]
"Somebody wonderful"
[FRAULEIN SCHNEIDER]
"Somebody wonderful"
[BOTH ]
"Married me."
