Lyrics

Don't despair, Larken, for we have plenty of time. If a true princess is not found in the next few months, I will go out and find one myself. 
But Harry, I'm going to have a baby. So you see, a princess for Dauntless must be found. And soon. Or I shall have to go away somewhere. 
No. You'll stay here. Why should we both suffer the rest of our lives just because you had a moment of weakness?
Oh, Harry!
We're none of us perfect. Everything is going to be alright. 
Thank you, Harry
It won't be long, it won't be long
It won't because it can't be long
Before our dream comes true
Because you know I don't belong
And furthermore I shan't belong to anyone but you
In a little while
Just a little while
You and I will be one
Two, three, four
In a little while
I will see your smile
On the face of my son. 
To be for-ever hand in glove
Is the way I have it planned
But I'll only stay in love
If the glove contains your hand
I can see it all
Down to every small detail
So I wish you'd look around until you've found a castle in the neighborhood for sale
Oh! I already have! It's tiny--only 27 rooms. And the moat's a mess. But we can pick it up for a sonnet!
(sung)
My time is at a premium
For soon the world will see me a maternal bride-to-be
I know I mustn't worry, Harry
Still I wish you'd hurry, Harry
Harry, marry me!
In a little while
Just a little while
You and I will be one
Two, three, four
In a little while
I will see your smile
On the face of my son
To be for-ever hand in glove
Is the way I have it planned (I have it planned)
But I'll only stay in love
If the glove contains your hand
In a velvet gown
You'll be coming down the aisle (I'll be coming)
And it's bound to seem as though the waiting's only been a little
In a little while
