Agony (Into the Woods)

Lyrics

Did I abuse her or show her disdain
 Why does she run from me
 If I should lose her how shall I regain
 the heart she has won from me
 Agony
 Beyond power of speech
 When the one thing you want
 Is the only thing out of your reach
 High in her tower she sits by the hour
 maintaining her hair
 Blithe and becoming and frequently humming
 a light-hearted air
 Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
 Agony
 Far more painful than yours
 When you know she would go with you
 If there only were doors
 Agony
 All the torture they teach
 What's as intruiging or half so fatiguing
 As what's out of reach
 Am I not sensitive, clever,
 well-mannered, considerate,
 passionate, charming, as kind as I'm handsome
 and heir to a throne
 You are everything maidens could wish for
 Then why no
 Do I know
 The girls must be mad
 You know nothing of madness
 'Till your climbing her hair
 And you see her up there
 as you're nearing her
 all the while hearing her
 Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
 Agony
 Misery
 Woe
 Though it's different for each
 Always ten steps behind
 Always ten feet below
 And she's just out of reach
 Agony
 That can cut like a knife
 I must have her to wife
