First Midnight Lyrics – Into the Woods Cast

First Midnight Text

---

[BAKER]
One midnight gone...

[MYSTERIOUS MAN]
No know unties itself...

[WITCH]
Sometimes the things you most wish for are not
to be touched...

[PRINCES]
The harder to get, the better to have...

[FLORINDA]
Never wear mauve at a ball...

[LUCINDA]
Or pink...

[STEPMOTHER]
Or open your mouth...

[JACK]
The difference between a cow and a bean
Is a bean can begin an adventure...

[JACK'S MOTHER]
Slotted spoons don't hold much soup...

[LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD]
The prettier the flower, the farther from the path...

[CINDERELLA'S FATHER]
The closer to the family, the closer to the wine...

[RAPUNZEL]
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah...

[WITCH]
One midnight gone!...

[GRANNY]
The mouth of a wolf's not the end of the world...

[STEWARD]
A servant is not just a dog, to a Prince...

[CINDERELLA]
Opportunity is not a lengthy visitor...

[BAKER'S WIFE]
You may know what you need,
But to get what you want,
Better see that you keep what you have.

[BAKER]
One midnight gone...

[WITCH]
Sometimes the things you most wish for are not
to be touched...

[PRINCES]
The harder to get,
The better to have...
Agreed.

[BAKER]
One midnight gone... one midnight gone...

[FLORINDA]
Never wear mauve at a ball...

[LUCINDA]
Or pink...

[JACK'S MOTHER]
Slotted spoons don't hold much soup...

[BAKER'S WIFE]
To get what you want,
Better keep what you...

[LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD]
The prettier the flower...

[ALL]
One midnight gone...

Into the woods,
Into the woods,
Into the woods, then out of the woods
And home before-
