Beyond My Wildest Dreams

[ARIEL]
Oh! Just look!
It's like I'm in a storybook!
Oh! It's bliss!
I dreamed that it would be
Somewhat—
But not
Like this!

Look over there!
Oh my god!
How very odd!
And what might they be?
Something splendid, maybe!

Look over here!
Could you bust?
Isn't it just
Bedazzling, dazing
Utterly amazing!
Gazing 'round, it's like, to die!
Just seeing it feels so good
I'd scream if I only could!

I'd hoped and wished
And wanted so to be here
Wished and prayed
And planned it to a "t"
Prayed and wow!
Just look— it's really me here!
Walking around, strange as it seems
Somewhere beyond my wildest dreams!

[MAID 1]
Look at her there
Looking 'round
Won't make a sound

[MAID 2]
Just keeps on gawking
Weird how she's not talking!

[MAID 3]
Look at her stare

[MAID 4]
Lucky miss!

[MAID 3]
Chosen like this
To stay for dinner

[MAID 4]
What does he see in her?

[CARLOTTA]
Hush now, girls
She's simply shy!

[MAIDS]
Hmmph!

[MAIDS 3 & 4]
Just picture the table chat!

[MAIDS 1 & 2]
One sided, if even that!

[ARIEL]
I'd hoped and wished
And wondered what I'd do here
Wished and prayed
And pictured what I'd see
Prayed and wow!
My prayers are coming true here!
Look at it all, look how it gleams!
Lovely beyond my wildest dreams

Look, it's him!
So handsome and refined and slim
Sweet, sincere
Magnificent from head to toe
And oh

I'd hoped and wished
My life would feel enchanted
Wished and prayed
The fates would hear my plea
Prayed and wow!
My prayers are more than granted

Look at it all
Hall after hall
Perfect as you could please here
Marvels galore
And even more
Gee, did I mention he's here?
And if— who knows?
All of it goes
Past even these extremes
Just look at me
And you will see
Someone beyond her wildest dreams!
