MARK
I’ll meet you at the show.
I’ll try and convince Roger to go.
(MARK exits)
ANGEL
Alone at last…
COLLINS
He’ll be back, I guarantee.
ANGEL
I’ve been hearing violins all night!
COLLINS
Anything to do with me? Are we a thing?
ANGEL
Darling… we’re everything!
Live in my house
I’ll be your shelter
Just pay me back
With one thousand kisses
Be my lover — I’ll cover you
COLLINS
Open your door
I’ll be your tenant
Don’t got much baggage
To lay at your feet
But sweet kisses I’ve got to spare
I’ll be there — I’ll cover you
BOTH
I think they meant it
When they said you can’t buy love
Now I know you can rent it
A new lease you are, my love,
On life — be my life
(They do a short dance.)
Just slip me on
I’ll be your blanket
Wherever — whatever — I’ll be your coat
ANGEL
You’ll be my king
And I’ll be your castle
COLLINS
No you’ll be my queen
And I’ll be your moat
BOTH
I think they meant it
When they said you can’t buy love
Now I know you can rent it
A new lease you are, my love,
On life — all my life
I’ve longed to discover
Something as true as this is
COLLINS
So with a thousand
sweet kisses
I’ll cover you
With a thousand sweet kisses
I’ll cover you
When you’re worn
out and tired
When your heart has expired
ANGEL (simultaneously)
If you’re cold
And you’re lonely
You’ve got one nickel only
With a thousand sweet kisses
I’ll cover you
With a thousand sweet kisses
I’ll cover you
BOTH
Oh lover I’ll cover you
Oh lover I’ll cover you
