Team StarKid - A Thousand And One Nights lyrics

Sherrezade: I know a thousand tales to fill a thousand nights But now another story comes to mind A noble, young vizier ascends to wondrous heights He's brilliant as he's handsome, and handsome as he's kind He is at once familiar and unknowable To the frightened girl he meets along the way And to the girl's surprise, something in his eyes Beckons her to know him and inspires her to say I want to know your story I want to know your past So tell me slowly from the start Leave out no detail Savour every part I want to know your story So make the story last I want to know each twist and turn Tell me all I've missed I've so much to learn For when it comes to stories I thought I knew them all Now I'm face to face with one I can't seem to recall Ja'far: The young vizier had come to help inspire change But fate had planned an unexpected twist Within the palace walls he discovered something strange And found the missing part of him he didn't know he missed She is at once a comfort and a mystery To the callow man she meets that fateful day She's beautiful and wise, and something in her eyes Beckons him to know her and inspires him to say I want to know your story I want to know your past I want to know your future too Fill my days and nights With the tale of you Ja'far: (Sherrezade:) I want to know your story (I want to know your story) So make the story last (So make the story...) And... Both: ...linger on for every part Tell it till I know Every bit by heart Ja'far: I never cared for stories Until you entered mine Both: And now my only wish is that Our plots may intertwine Ja'far: But I forget what happens next Sherrezade: I'm not sure I understand Ja'far: Remind me how she answers When he asks her for her hand? Sherrezade: (Spoken) Took you long enough (Spoken) Yes, she says yes! Both: A thousand and one nights with you is not enough to spend So let's make ours a story with no end So let's make ours a story with no end...
