Lyrics

Anne?
 Oh, forgive me, Countess
 I was looking for my wife
 Ah, Mister Egerman
 How can I face you after that exhibition at dinner?
 Throwing myself at your head
 On the contrary
 I found it most morale building
 It's not often these days
 That a beautiful woman does me that honor
 I didn't
 It was just a charade
 A failed charade
 In my madness
 I thought I could make my husband jealous
 I'm afraid marriage isn't one of the easier relationships
 Is it?
 Look at you
 A man of an age when a woman is lucky
 If a drunken older man pinches her derriere at the village fete
 And yet you have managed to acquire the youngest, prettiest-
 I hate you being happy
 I hate anyone being happy!
 The gig should be ready at the stables
 Oh, Henrik, darling
 I do hope the horses will be smart
 I do detest riding a gig when the horses are not-
 Smart
 ♪
 Think of how I adore you
 Think of how much you love me
 If I were perfect for you
 Wouldn't you tire of me?
 Soon
 Let all the birds nest in my hair!
 Silly Henrik
 Quick, or we'll miss the train!
 It was, wasn't it?
 It was, yes
 Run after them
 Quick, you can catch them at the stables
 After the horse has gone?
 How strange
 That one's life should end sitting on a bench
 In a garden
 She lightens my sadness
 She livens my day
 She bursts with a kind of madness
 My well-ordered ways
 My happiest mistake
 The ache of my life
 Carl Magnus, go away
 I'd have been here half an hour ago
 But I've been looking for my wife
 Carl Magnus, don't take off your jacket
 Poor girl
 She was somewhat worse for the wine, of course
 Trying to make me believe
 She was attracted to that asinine lawyer fellow
 Carl Magnus, listen to me
 It's over
 It was never anything in the first place
 Now it's over
 Of all people that lawyer!
 Short and short sighted
 Without a hair on his body probably
 Don't take out your trousers
 Good God
 What is it?
 It's her and him
 Sitting on that bench
 She's- she's touching him
 The scoundrel
 The conniving swine!
 Any man who thinks he can lay a finger on my wife!
 Carl Magnus, what are you doing?
 My dueling pistols!
 Carl Magnus!
