Desperate to get closer to Stella but aware of his financial limitations, Stanton devises a bold plan to secure the money he needs to both impress Stella and win her love. He plans to court and marry June Mills, the daughter of a wealthy and prominent local businessman for her money, which he will then use to lure Stella away. June is kind-hearted, genuine, and unsuspecting-exactly the kind of woman Stanton believes he can manipulate.
Stanton's got his eyes set on June
With a smile, he's playing every tune
Not for love, but the wealth she holds
In his game, only he knows the goals
(Oh June, can't you see?)
He's spinning tales, his disguise divine
For June, the riches he'll intertwine
His words are gilded, but his love's confined
And in this dance, his truth maligned
Under the moonlight, he whispers sweet lies
Promising dreams painted gold in her eyes
June, so gentle, she holds his hand tight
Unknowing the plans spun by Stanton that night
(Oh June, can't you see?)
He's building castles, drawn with deceit
Holding hearts with a rhythm offbeat
For June, it's love; for him, a retreat
Yet his affection's only bittersweet
With shadows creeping in Stanton's eyes
His promises are stars in darkened skies
June dances blindly to the heartfelt strain
Unaware of the clouds, only seeing the rain
As dawn breaks, revealing its light
Stanton's heart grows colder in the morning bright
In riches he finds solace, in her tears none
For him, it's over before it's begun
