Fanny (musical)

Fanny is a musical with a book by S. N. Behrman and Joshua Logan and music and lyrics by Harold Rome. A tale of love, secrets, and passion set in and around the old French port of Marseille, it is based on Marcel Pagnol's trilogy of plays entitled Marius, Fanny and César.

The musical premiered on Broadway in 1954 and ran for 888 performances, and later was staged in the West End.

Plot

Fanny is a young woman whose childhood love, Marius, leaves her to go to sea as a sailor for five years. His father Cesar, a tavern owner, disowns him. After his departure, Fanny discovers she is pregnant. Under pressure from her mother, she marries Panisse, an older man whose delight at having an heir prompts him to keep the boy's illegitimacy a secret. Marius returns on his son's first birthday to claim both him and Fanny, but he is turned away by Cesar, who is Panisse's best friend. As the years pass the boy, now 13, longs to go to sea like his father, and runs away to join him. This is too much for the now-ill and aged Panisse. Marius brings the boy back to fulfill Panisse's dying wish for Marius and Fanny to be together.

I Need You Need Me

by: Fanny

I tried to call you but they've taken out your phone.
Are you all right?
I should have seen I could not leave you on your own.
Are you all right?
You need me I need you.
I came to see you but the lock was on your door.
Are you all right?
The neighbors tell me you don't live here anymore.
Are you all right?
You need me I need you.
It's a complicated world and there's so little that I'm really sure of.
Love is easy if you try.
'Specially if you don't know where your're going.
You need me I need you. I need you need me.
You don't have to be alone.
There's somebody out there waiting for you.
So take the time to make it right.
If it hurt before it might not this time.
You need me I Need you. I need you need me.
Where are you?
I've looked everyplace.
Where are you?
Cannot find a trace.
