| CINDERELLA LYRICS TO SONGS FROM THE MUSICAL |
| In my own little corner In my own little corner In my own little chair I can be whatever I want to be On the wing of my fancy I can fly anywhere And the world will open its arms to me I'm a young (Egyptian; norwegian) princess or a milkmade I'm the greatest primadonna in Milan I'm an heiress who has always had her silk made By her own flock of silk worms in Japan I'm a girl men go mad for Loves a game I can play With a cool and confident kind of air Just as long as I stay in my own little corner All alone in my own little chair I can be whatever I want to be I'm a (theif; slave) in Calcutta I'm a Queen in Peru I'm a mermaid dancing upon the sea I'm a huntress on an African safari It's a dangerous type of sport...and yet it's fun In the night I sally forth to seek my quarry And I find I forgot to bring my gun I am lost in the jungle All alone and unarmed When I met a lioness in her lair Then I'm glad to be back in my own little corner All alone in my own little chair In my own little corner In my own little chair I can be whatever I want to be On the wings of my fancy I can fly anywhere And the world will open it's arms to me I am in the Royal palace of all places I am chatting with the Prince, and King, and Queen And the colour of my two stepsisters faces Is a queer sort of sour apple green I am coy and flirtatious when alone with the Prince "Hahaha, oh my you're Highness, you shouldn't say such things" I'm the Belle of the ball in my own little corner All alone in my own little chair Do I Love You Because You're Beautiful Prince: Do I love you because you're beautiful Or are you beautiful because I love you Am I making believe I see in you A girl too lovely to be really true Do I want you because you're wonderful Or are you wonderful because I want you Are you the sweet invention of a lover's dream Or are you really as beautiful as you seem Cinderella: Am I making believe I see in you And man to perfect to be really true Do I want you because you're wonderful Or are you wonderful because I want you Prince&Cinderella: Are you the sweet invention of a lover's dream Or are you really as wonderful as you seem |

| Ten Minutes Ago Prince: Ten minutes ago I saw you I looked up when you came through the door My head started reeling You gave me the feeling The room had no ceiling or floor Ten minutes ago I met you And we murmured our "How-do-you-do?"s I wanted to ring out the bells And fling out my arms And to sing out the news I have found her--she's an Angel With the dust of the stars in her eyes We are dancing, we are flying And she's taking me back to the skies In the arms of my love, I'm flying Over mountain and meadow and glen And I like it so well That for all I can tell I may never come down again I may never come down to earth again Cinderella: Ten minutes ago I saw you You looked up when I came through the door My head started reeling You gave me the feeling The room had no ceiling or floor Ten minutes ago I met you And we murmured our "how-do-you-do?"s I wanted to ring out the bells And fling out my arms And to sing out the news Prince: I have found her Cinderella: I have found him. He's the light of the stars in my eyes Prince: We are dancing Cinderella: We are flying Prince: And she's taking me back to the skies Cinderella: In the arms of my love, I'm flying Over mountain and meadow and glen Prince: And I like it so well That for all I can tell I may never come down again Prince&Cinderella: I may never come down to earth again |
