When We Are Wed Lyrics - Alysha Deslorieux

ANDREA 

My dear Mademoiselle 

I have something to say 

Something I fear was left unsaid 

Many thanks for 

All you've given Daniel 

But do not be misled 

My dear Mademoiselle 

You dance so very well 

I pray you'll dance for Daniel 

And for me 

When we are wed 

DANIEL 

Ti Moune, Andrea and I have been promised 

To each other since we were children 

Our parents are old friends

But Daniel... 

DANIEL 

This is how things are done, Ti Moune 

It's expected 

TI MOUNE 

Daniel, please... 

DANIEL 

We can still be together 

TI MOUNE(Sings) 

We'll race away in a car 

DANIEL 

I can't change who I am, or where I'm from 

TI MOUNE 

As silver as the moon 

DANIEL 

There will always be a place for you here

TI MOUNE 

We will live beside the sea 

We'll have children 

A garden 

And a tree... 

DANIEL 

Ti Moune, I thought you understood. We 

Can never marry 

TI MOUNE 

Oh gods... Oh gods... are you there? 

Are you there...? 

VOICES (overlapping) 

There can never be anything between a 

Peasant and a grand homme 

They despise us for our blackness 

Marry you! You are mad! 

You're not supposed to be in here 

Now what can he want with a woman like that? 

If he lives, how angry the gods will be! 

The boy has the will of the devil himself 

He'll soon throw her out! 

What can a peasant do for a grand homme 

But shine his shoes? 

He will not want you Ti Moune! 

Blacker than coal and low as dirt 

I can tell you this: they'll never stand before a priest! 

Some girls you marry, some you love 

Oh, Ti Moune, what has this boy done to you? 

The girl will have the gods to repay! 

The gods to repay... 

The gods to repay...
