1 JASMINE A princess must say this:
2 "A princess must marry a total stranger", it's absurd!
3 Suitors talk of love but it's an act
4 Merely meant to throw me
5 How could someone love me when in fact
6 They don't know me
7 They want my royal treasure
8 When all is said and done
9 It's time for a desperate measure
10 So I wonder
11 Why shouldn't I fly so far from here?
12 I know the girl I might become here
13 Sad and confined and always locked behind these palace walls!
14 ATTENDANT #1, spoken
15 I don't know princess, for someone like you the outside world might be kind of overwhelming
16 JASMINE, spoken
17 Is that a promise?
18 ATTENDANT #2, spoken
19 I think it would do her some good
20 JASMINE, spoken
21 You do?
22 ATTENDANT #2, spoken
23 Honey I've never seen somebody who needed to get out more
24 ATTENDANTS
25 Told to show devotion everyday
26 And not second guess it
27 JASMINE
28 If a new emotion comes my way
29 ATTENDANTS
30 You suppress it
31 JASMINE
32 What would be your suggestion?
33 ATTENDANTS
34 Stand on your own two feet
35 And ask why a certain question keeps repeating
36 JASMINE
37 Why shouldn't I fly so far from here?
38 I know the girl I might become here
39 Follow your heart or you might end up cold and callous
40 ALL
41 Love comes to those who go and find it
42 If you've a dream then stand behind it
43 JASMINE
44 Maybe there's more beyond these palace walls
45 What if I dared
46 What if I tried
47 Am I prepared for what's outside
48 Why shouldn't I fly so far from here?
49 Something awaits beyond these palace walls
50 ALL
51 Something waits beyond these palace walls
