Thinking lyrics
Thinking
LEONA: What are you thinking?
RENATO
I was thinking,
All of that Puccini
Going to waste.
LEONA
I was thinking,
Coffee and Puccini
Isn't my taste.
(Pause)
RENATO
I keep thinking,
Such a fine beginning,
Such a lovely evening we could spend.
LEONA
Such a fine beginning,
I keep thinking
More about the end.
(Pause)
I was thinking,
Wonder what he's thinking?
Not what he should.
RENATO
I was thinking,
All this heavy thinking,
This is not good.
(Pause)
But think of coffee cups clinking
To a duet,
We could sit drinking,
See the sun set.
What are you thinking?
LEONA
I was just thinking,
What you are thinking, forget!
(Pause)
I was thinking,
Tete-a-tetes for two
So often fall flat.
RENATO
I was thinking,
Tete-a-tetes for one
Are flatter than that.
(Pause)
I am thinking,
This is very awkward,
Frankly, you prefer that I should go?
LEONA
This is very awkward,
I am thinking,
Very frankly, no!
(Pause)
I was thinking,
Wonder why I get
So easily hurt?
RENATO
I was thinking,
Has she noticed yet
The spot on my shirt?
(Pause)
But think of two of us linking
Arms in the square,
Sit as stars, winking,
Fill the night air.
What are you thinking?
LEONA
I was just thinking,
What am I going to wear?
RENATO
And as the sun begins sinking,
Night starts to fall,
LEONA
Stars appear blinking,
Gondoliers call,
RENATO, LEONA
What am I thinking?
I should be thinking
Not what I'm thinking
At all!
