Comments:
For this scene, director Jerry Mitchell asked us to write a love song ... without using the word "love".

"You And I" is sung by Edward during the Opera scene, where he first begins to "see the wonders of the world" through Vivian's eyes. The song weaves in and out of Verdi's La Traviatta, transitioning to a Gala dance scene before ending back at Edward's Beverly Wiltshire Hotel suite ... beautifully staged and choreographed by Jerry.
Lyrics:

Edward:
 DARLIN' YOU LOOK BEAUTIFUL TONIGHT
I CAN’T REMEMBER EVER SEEIN' ANYTHING SO RIGHT
IN THE MAGIC OF THE MOMENT - YA
THERE’S NO PLACE I’D RATHER BE

I SEE THE WONDER OF THE WORLD THROUGH YOUR EYES
TO HAVE YOU HERE BESIDE ME
MAKES ME REALIZE
EVERYTHING IS DIFFERENT
EVERYTHING HAS CHANGED INSIDE OF ME

YOU AND I
WE'VE GOT SOMETHING GOIN’ ON
YOU AND I
HOW COULD THIS BE WRONG?
WHO’D BELIEVE THAT WE COULD CATCH THE WIND BEFORE IT’S GONE?
ONLY YOU AND I

Violetta (opera edit only):
 SARO LA, TRAQUEI FIOR
PRESSO A TE SEMPRE
SEMPRE, SEMPRE
PRESSO A TE
AMAMI, ALFREDO
AMAMI, QUANT’IO T’AMO
AMAMI, ALFREDO
QUANT’IO T’AMO,
QUANT’IO T’AMO T’AMO
ADDIO!

Edward:
 I LOVE THE WAY YOU FEEL WHEN YOU’RE NEAR
IF I COULD BE ANYWHERE I’D WANNA BE RIGHT HERE
LET’S NEVER LET IT END
I COULD SPEND FOREVER IN YOUR ARMS

OH - YOU AND I
MUCH TO MY SURPRISE
YOU AND I
IT WAS RIGHT BEFORE MY EYES
I WOULD GIVE ALMOST ANYTHING
THE STARS, THE MOON AND THE SKY
ALL FOR YOU AND I

I WASN’T WAITING FOR A MIRACLE
I JUST WANTED SOMEWHERE TO BELONG
IT’S AMAZING WHAT CAN HAPPEN WHEN YOU’RE MAKING OTHER PLANS
BUT HOW WAS I TO KNOW YOU WERE RIGHT HERE ALL ALONG?

DARLIN’ YOU LOOK BEAUTIFUL TONIGHT
I CAN’T REMEMBER EVER SEEIN' ANYTHING SO RIGHT
LIKE A VISION IN THE DARKNESS
A SIGHT FOR LONELY EYES TO SEE

YOU AND I
I ALWAYS WANNA FEEL THIS WAY
YOU AND I
ON ANY OTHER DAY
I MIGHT HAVE MISSED THE MOMENT
NOW I JUST WANNA STAY
TOGETHER, YOU AND I
FOREVER, YOU AND I
