Liesl: - Mother, what do you do when you think you love someone? I mean, when you stop loving someone or he stops loving you?
Maria: - Well, you cry a little. Then you wait for the sun to come out. It always does. [..]
Liesl: - Sometimes I feel the world is ending.
Maria: - Then you feel it's just beginning?
Liesl: - Yes!
Maria: - It was that way with me. And for you it will be just as wonderful.
Liesl: - Do you really think so?
Maria: - When you're sixteen going on seventeen,
Waiting for life to start,
Somebody kind who touches your mind
Will suddenly touch your heart.
Liesl: - When that happens, after it happens
Nothing is quite the same.
Somehow I know I'll jump up and go
If ever he calls my name.
Maria: - Gone are your old ideas of life,
The old ideas grow dim.
Lo and behold you're someone's wife
And you belong to him.
You may think this kind of adventure
Never may come to you.
Darling, sixteen going on seventeen –
Wait a year or two.
