Wanting You.

Seq - Dr. J.Pitt-Payne. Kar - Bunty Pritchard Jones. June 2001.

[Robert] My heart is aching for someone,
and you are that someone.

You know the truth of my story;
You must believe what you see.

[Marianne] I too, may someday love someone,
From somewhere, there'll come one.

One who will hear the same story
that you're telling me.

[Robert] Wanting you,
Ev'ry day I am wanting you,

Ev'ry night I am longing to
hold you close to my eager breast.

Wanting you,
in that heaven I'm dreaming of,

makes that heaven seem far above
any hope that I'll gain my quest.

Dreams are vain:
But I cling to the merest chance,
that you may hear me.

Dreams are vain:
for whenever I wake,
I never find you near me.

Wanting you,
nothing else in the world will do.

In this world you are all that I adore!
All that I adore!

[Marianne] Wanting you,
ev'ry day I am wanting you,

ev'ry night I am longing to
hold you close to my eager breast.

Wanting love,
in that heaven I'm dreaming of,

makes that heaven seem far above
any hope that I'll gain my quest.

[Marianne and Robert] Dreams are vain:
but I cling to the merest chance
that you may hear me.

Dreams are vain for whenever I wake,
I never find you near me!

Wanting you,
nothing else in the world will do.

In this world you are all that I adore!
All that I adore!

[Dialogue]

[Marianne and Robert] Dreams are vain:
but I know I'm awake at last,
and you are near me.

[They waltz]

[Girls] So they dance to
the garden that breathes romance.

They're beginning to climb
the heights of love.

[Robert speaks] "What does this mean?"
[Marianne] "Robert".

[Ribaud draws a paper from Robert's coat and reads] "His Majesty King Louis XIVth......"

[Men backstage] Give me some men,
who are stouthearted men,
who will fight for the right they adore,

start me with ten who are stouthearted men,
and I'll soon give you ten thousand more.
Oh!

[Robert] Dreams are vain:
But I clung to the merest chance
that you would hear me.

Dreams are vain:
I've awakened to find
that love is nowhere near me.

[Dialogue]

[Girls] Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!

[Robert exits with guards]

[Dialogue]

[Marianne] One kiss one man to save it for,
one love for him alone.

One word one vow and nothing more,
To tell him I'm his own.

[Girls] One magic night within his arms,
with passion flow'rs unfurled.

[Marianne] And all of my life,
I'll love only one man,
[Marianne and Full Chorus] And no other man in the world!

[Curtain]

The New Moon 1928 Wanting You
Music by Sigmund Romberg
Lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II

Karaoke by Bunty Pritchard Jones
Possibly the most romantic part of Romberg's
'New Moon' is this song 'Wanting You'
It was the very devil to sequence and if the
orchestration is heavy in patches, my apologies.
It all came from a piano score
