Tonight
Original Broadway Cast Lyrics

Only you, you're the only thing I'll see forever
You hold such an important place in my life that I’ll only ever care for you, and nothing else.

In my eyes, in my words, and in everything I do
I feel your presence so strongly that it affects everything I see, say, and do.

Nothing else but you
Nothing else can compare to how much I adore you.

And there's nothing for me but Maria
My life is incomplete without you, Maria.

Every sight that I see is Maria
I am so consumed with thoughts of you that everywhere I look, I feel as though I see you.

Always you, every thought I'll ever know
I’m constantly thinking about you and feel as though you’re present within every thought I have.

Everywhere I go, you'll be
No matter where I am, I feel like you’re right there with me.

All the world is only
To me, the entire world revolves around you.

You and me!
In my mind, it’s just us two against the world.

Tonight, tonight
This evening marks a significant moment in time for us.

It all began tonight
Something important started happening between us tonight.

I saw you and the world went away
My focus on anything else dissolved as I saw you.

There's only you tonight
For me, you are the only person who matters this evening.

What you are, what you do, what you say
I’m consumed with all that you are and everything you do and say.

Today, all day I had the feeling
All day I had an intuition that something incredible was going to happen.

A miracle would happen
I never knew what that miracle would be, but I had faith that something was about to change for the better.

I know now I was right
My feeling was justified because of you.

For here you are
Your presence has made everything around me brighter and better.

And what was just a world is a star
Your existence has transformed my life and surroundings into something magical.

The world is full of light
The world has become a brighter place because of your arrival.

With suns and moons all over the place
Everything around me is lit up and shining like never before.

The world is wild and bright
The world now seems more vibrant and alive than it ever did before.

Going mad, shooting sparks Into space
The brilliance of your arrival is making the world seem like it’s going crazy, like with fireworks going off everywhere.

Today the world was just an address
Before you arrived, the world just seemed like a location.

A place for me to live in No better than all right
The world didn’t seem like anything special to me before knowing you.

I can't stay Go quickly!
As much as I want to stay, I know that for your safety and wellbeing, you must leave soon.

They are strict with me
I’m under a lot of pressure and scrutiny, so I must take care in how I approach this situation.

Please
Please leave, even though I don’t want you to go.

I love you
I am completely devoted and enamored with you.

Good night, good night Sleep well and when you dream Dream of me
I want you to know that I care about your wellbeing, and I want you to dream of me tonight just as I will dream of you.
