**MARIA**
Only you, you're the only thing I'll see forever
In my eyes in my words and in everything I do
Nothing else but you
Ever

**TONY**
And there's nothing for me but Maria
Every sight that I see is Maria

**MARIA**
Tony, Tony

**TONY**
Always you, every thought I'll ever know
Everywhere I go you'll be

**TONY & MARIA**
All the world is only you and me

**MARIA**
Tonight, tonight
It all began tonight
I saw you and the world went away
Tonight, tonight
There's only you tonight
What you are, what you do, what you say

**TONY**
Today, all day I had the feeling
A miracle would happen
I know now I was right

But here you are
And what was just a world is a star
Tonight

**TONY & MARIA**
Tonight, tonight
The world is full of light
With suns and moons all over the place
Tonight, tonight
The world is wild and bright
Going mad
Shooting sparks into space

Today, the world was just an address
A place for me to live in
No better than all right
But here you are
And what was just a world is a star
Tonight

Good night, good night
Sleep well and when you dream
Dream of me
Tonight

**MARIA**
Toi seul, tu es la seule chose que je verrai pour toujours
Dans mes yeux, dans mes mots et dans tout ce que je fais
Rien d’autre à part toi
Pour toujours

**TONY**
Et il n’y rien pour moi à part Maria
Tout ce que je vois, c’est Maria

**MARIA**
Tony, Tony

**TONY**
Toujours toi, toutes les pensées que j’aurai
Partout où j’irai, tu seras là

**TONY & MARIA**
Le monde, c’est juste toi et moi

**MARIA**
Cette nuit, cette nuit,
Tout commence cette nuit
Je t’ai vu et le monde a disparu
Cette nuit, cette nuit,
Il n’y a que toi cette nuit
Ce que tu es, ce que tu fais, ce que tu dis

**TONY**
Aujourd’hui, j’ai eu le sentiment toute la journée
Qu’un miracle allait se produire
Je sais maintenant que j’avais raison

Mais maintenant, tu es là
Et ce qui n’était qu’un monde est une étoile
Cette nuit

**TONY & MARIA**
Cette nuit, cette nuit
Le monde est plein de lumière
Avec des soleils et des lunes de partout
Cette nuit, cette nuit,
Le monde est sauvage et éclatant
Il devient fou
A chasser des étincelles dans l’espace

Aujourd’hui, le monde n’est qu’une adresse
Un endroit où vivre
Ni plus, ni moins
Mais maintenant, tu es là
Et ce qui n’était qu’un monde est une étoile
Cette nuit

Bonne nuit, bonne nuit,
Dors bien and quand tu rêves
Rêve de moi
Cette nuit

**MARIA**
Only you, you're the only thing I'll see, forever.
In my eyes, in my words and in everything I do,
Nothing else but you,
Ever!

**TONY**
And there's nothing for me but Maria,
Every sight that I see is Maria.

**MARIA**
Tony, Tony . . .

**TONY**
Always you, every thought I'll ever know,
Everywhere I go,
You'll be!

**MARIA**
All the world is only you and me!

Tonight, tonight,
It all began tonight,
I saw you and the world went away.
Tonight, tonight,
There's only you tonight,
What you are, what you do, what you say!

**TONY**
Today, all day I had the feeling
A miracle would happen—
I know now I was right.

**TONY & MARIA**
For here you are,
And what was just a world is a star
Tonight!

Tonight, tonight,
The world is full of light,
With suns and moons all over the place.
Tonight, tonight,
The world is wild and bright,
Going mad, shooting sparks into space.

Today, the world was just an address,
A place for me to live in,
No better than all right,
But here you are
And what was just a world is a star
Tonight!

*(dialogue)*

**TONY & MARIA**
Good night, good night,
Sleep well and when you dream,
Dream of me
Tonight.

**MARÍA**
Only you, you're the only thing I'll see forever
In my eyes, in my words, and in everything I do
Nothing else but you
Ever!

**TONY**
And there's nothing for me but María
Every sight that I see is María

**MARÍA**
Tony, Tony…

**TONY**
Always you, every thought I'll ever know
Everywhere I go, you'll be

**MARÍA**
All the world is only

**BOTH**
You and me!

**MARÍA**
Tonight, tonight
It all began tonight
I saw you and the world went away

Tonight, tonight
There's only you tonight
What you are, what you do, what you say

**TONY**
Today, all day I had the feeling
A miracle would happen
I know now I was right

For here you are
And what was just a world is a star
Tonight!

**MARÍA**
Tonight, tonight
The world is full of light

**TONY**
With suns and moons all over the place

**BOTH**
Tonight, tonight
The world is wild and bright
Going mad, shooting sparks into space

**TONY**
Today the world was just an address
A place for me to live in
No better than all right

**MARÍA**
But here you are
And what was just a world

**BOTH**
Is a star
Tonight!
