The Countess and The Common Man lyrics

VLAD:

Ever since that first day I saw you at court,

I knew I was beneath you.

LILY:

You were right, darling. You were.

VLAD:

I noticed you across a room—

The most exquisite rose

The tiniest tiara and

That haughty little nose

I flirted with you shamelessly

LILY:

Or so the scandal goes...

The Countess

VLAD:

And the common man

We tiptoed off to Peterhof

To have a royal fling

LILY:

My husband was oblivious

Counts never know a thing!

VLAD:

And all of it was perfect...

LILY:

'Til you stole my diamond ring!

VLAD & LILY:

The Countess

And the common man

VLAD:

Cologne in the bedclothes

The pastry and wine

LILY:

And under the table

Your foot touching mine

VLAD & LILY:

And how my heart beat

When you sent me "our sign"

LILY:

I loved you...

VLAD:

You loved me

And oh, it was simply

VLAD & LILY:

Divine...

VLAD:

Who would have known

My little rose

We're back where we began

LILY:

And I suppose

That you'll propose

Another sneaky plan!

Which I'll resist...

VLAD:

Until you're kissed

VLAD & LILY:

For nothing's better than...

LILY:

The countess

VLAD:

And the common man...

VLAD & LILY:

The countess

And the common man
