Original lyrics
TEVYE Do you love me? GOLDE Do I what? TEVYE Do you love me? GOLDE Do I love you? TEVYE Well? GOLDE With our daughters getting married And there's trouble in the town You're upset, you're worn-out Go inside, go lie down Maybe it's indigestion! TEVYE Golde, I'm asking you a question Do you love me? GOLDE You're a fool! TEVYE I know! But do you love me? GOLDE Do I love you? TEVYE Well? GOLDE For twenty-five years I've washed your clothes Cooked your meals, cleaned the house Given you children, milked your cow After twenty-five years, why talk about love right now? TEVYE Golde, the first time I saw you Was on our wedding day I was scared GOLDE I was shy TEVYE I was nervous GOLDE So was I TEVYE But my father and my mother said We'd learn to love each other So now I'm asking you, Golde Do you love me? GOLDE I'm your wife! TEVYE I know! But do you love me? GOLDE Do I love him? TEVYE Well? GOLDE For twenty-five years I've lived with him Fought with him, starved with him Twenty-five years my bed is his If that's not love, what is? TEVYE Then you love me! GOLDE I suppose I do TEVYE And I suppose I love you, too TEVYE & GOLDE It doesn't change a thing But even so - After twenty-five years It's nice to know
