Evening Primrose - Take Me To The World Lyrics |
Stephen Sondheim's 1966 television musical Evening Primrose the Musical - Take Me To The World Lyrics
WOMAN: Let me see the world with clouds, Take me to the world. Out where I can push through crowds, Take me to the world.
A world that smiles With streets instead of aisles Where I can walk for miles with you
Take me to the world that’s real Show me how it’s done Teach me how to laugh, to feel Move me to the sun
Just hold my hand whenever we arrive Take me to a world where I can be alive
MAN: The world is better here. I know I’ve seen them both.
WOMAN: Let me see the world that smiles
MAN: A poet doesn’t count for much out there
WOMAN: Take me to the world
MAN: We’d be cold and hungry in the winter
WOMAN: Somewhere I can walk for miles
MAN: A shabby room with cracked plaster
WOMAN: Take me to the world Him: You couldn’t get a job With all around things growing in the ground
MAN: We’d end up hating each other.
WOMAN: We’d have fights. You’d cry. Where birds that make a sound are birds Let me see the world that’s real
MAN: I have seen the world
WOMAN: Show me how it’s done
MAN: And it’s mean and ugly
WOMAN: Teach me how to laugh, to feel
MAN: We could laugh together
WOMAN: Move me to the sun
MAN: Stay here with me
WOMAN: Just hold my hand whenever we arrive
MAN: Stay here. I love you. But we’re happy here
WOMAN: Let it be a world with you
MAN: Stay with me
WOMAN: Any other world with you Take me to a world where I can be alive
MAN: Do you want the world ? Well then, you shall have the world Ask me for the world again You shall have the world
A world of skies That’s bursting with surprise To open up your eyes for joy
We shall see the world come true We shall have the world I won’t be afraid with you We shall have the world You’ll hold my hand and know you’re not alone
You shall have the world to keep Such a lovely world you’ll weep We shall have the world forever for our own
