Don't You Wish We Could Be In Love?



ROBERTA
They say that love is blind.
They say that love can't see.
But that don't matter at all
All it needs to do is stop
And listen to me.
Don't you wish we could be in love?

MIKE
Don't you wish we had a choice?

ROBERTA
Hey Cupid, we're over here!

MIKE
Just follow the sound of my voice.

ROBERTA
Cupid aim, Cupid pull, Cupid shoot.
Cupid, come on, wake up, babe, you got two lovers on the loose.

MIKE AND ROBERTA
Cupid please, Cupid now, I beg I plead I implore
Can't I be in love with her/him and not the one that I love more?

KATE
Here I am, the busy bee,
running around to keep love from me.
So far so good I'm pretty fast.
But how much longer can my heart last?
Think how perfect she is.

STEVE
How perfect he is.

KATE
Why can't I be happy with this?

STEVE
Why can't I be happy with this?

KATE
She's everything I could dream.

STEVE
He's all I could dream.

BOTH
Tell me what's wrong with me. Please.

MIKE AND ROBERTA
Cupid aim, Cupid pull, Cupid shoot
Cupid, come on, wake up, babe,
you got two lovers on the loose.

MIKE, ROBERTA, STEVE, AND KATE
Cupid, please, Cupid now,
I beg I plead I implore
Can't I be in love with her/him and not the one that I love more?

ZANNA
Go away, love. Go away, love.
Just pack your bags, you can't stay love.
Boil, bubble, you're causing trouble.
So have a heart and just go away.
La la la la la la I'm not listening to you. Ow!
La la la, cut it out, or you and I are through.
I'm sorry pal, I know you want what's best for me.
But he loves someone else so please just let me be.

KATE
I've learned to ride a bull and get straight A's

STEVE
I've learned to hide feelings inside
I've learned to win a thousand ways.
Oh, I've got my pride
And so I'll learn how to forget.
And so I'll learn how to forget

KATE AND STEVE
Problem solved no one's upset.

ZANNA
Just forget it, just forget it, just forget it

STEVE
Why can't I stop thinking of her?

KATE AND ZANNA
Just keep busy, just keep busy, just keep busy

STEVE
I want things the way they once were.

KATE AND ZANNA
So I'll just learn not to love him in time

STEVE
I'll learn not to love her.

KATE, ZANNA AND STEVE
And then, everything will be fine.
So I ain't gonna think about love no more.
Out of sight, out of mind, and out the door.

STEVE
I've got him.

KATE
I've got her.

ZANNA
I've got you.

KATE ZANNA AND STEVE
And that's enough.

No reason.
