darling?

- Why, of course I'm in love with you.

- Nancy, look at me.

- Oh, you're wonderful.

- Take a better look.

Why, I could be your father.

Oh, my father. You silly boy.

Nancy.

Paul is right.

He doesn't want to hurt you, dear,

and you mustn't hurt yourself.

What you feel now

is something every girl goes through.

It's part of growing up.

Why, when I was 15,

I was crazy about an acrobat.

When I was 16,

I wanted to marry a deep-sea diver.

And when you were 17,

you married father.

Yes, I know. But that was different.

Your father

was only two years older than I.

I know how you feel about Paul now,

darling, but it isn't really love.

That's still ahead of you.

And someday you'll laugh about all this.

But when you find your Paul,

someone your own age...

...you'll be the happiest girl in the world.

So that's it. You've taken him from me.

- Nancy.

- How could you?

The two people I love most

betraying me behind my back.

I offered you the heart of a woman...

...and you treated it like a plaything.

You took a beautiful dream,

made of starlight and evening song...

...and turned it into a shabby, sordid...

- Escapade.

- Escapade.

Well, I won't hold you.

You're free to go, free to forget me.

All I ask is the warm,

merciful cloak of solitude.

I'm through with men

and all their hypocrisy.

This is farewell. Farewell to you both.

- Wasn't she wonderful?

- Wonderful? You'd better go after her.

Why, that's the big scene

from the third act.

Paul, she'd be wonderful as Emily.

I'll cable Barrett right away.

Miss Elliott... I mean, Mrs. Berten,

you're late.

Yes, I know. Come on, darling.

I'm sorry we're late,

but we had car trouble and we...

There's a show on, you know. The finale.

Yes, come on.

[SINGING]

Love is like this

Strange as it seems

The moment you kiss

Your maker of dreams

A beautiful world of love will unfold

The moonlight of old will turn into gold

With one little kiss

For love is like this

You float away

On the light of a magic lantern sky

A way

Where you certainly will

Reach the top of a thrill

On the wings of a sigh

All of your schemes

Lost in the blue

Will turn into dreams

The kind that come true

And when you feel the glorious glow

In someone's hello

Then your heart will know

The meaning of bliss

For love is like this

CHORUS:
All of your schemes

NANCY:
Ah-ah-ah

CHORUS:
Lost in the blue

NANCY:
Ah-ah-ah-ah

CHORUS:
Will turn into dreams

NANCY:
Ah-ah-ah-ah

CHORUS:
The kind that come true

NANCY:
Ah-ah-ah

And when you feel the glorious glow

In someone's hello

Then your heart will know

- The meaning of bliss

- The meaning of bliss

For love is like
