An American composer and lyricist
Stephen Sondheim - If You Can Find Me, I'm Here Lyrics
This song from musical Evening Primrose
WOMAN:
Goodbye my friends and good riddance
Pardon while I disappear
Come see me soon in my hideaway
If you can find me, I'm here
MAN:
Farewell you bloodsucking landlords
Pouring your threats in my ear
Good luck forever to you and yours
If you can find me, I'm here
BOTH:
And I'll stay
Cozily hiding by day
During the day I'll resign
Waiting 'til you go away
MAN:
But at nine
Master of all I survey
Everything gets to be mine to own
Mine to use
Mine to write all the poems I choose
All alone
Only me and my muse
WOMAN:
And forty pianos
And ten thousand shoes
MAN:
Farewell Neanderthal neighbors
Swilling your pretzels and beer
WOMAN:
Fair weather friends, do you miss me now?
BOTH:
If you can find me, I'm here
WOMAN:
Goodbye despoilers of beauty
MAN:
Ruin another career
BOTH:
When you wake up with one genius less
If you can find me, I'm here
MAN:
And I'm free
Free as a bird in a tree
WOMAN:
Free as the slippers I wear
Free with a year's warranty
MAN:
Free as air
All of these products and me
WOMAN:
All that I ask is a chair that tilts
MAN:
Books to read
WOMAN:
Light refreshment before I proceed
MAN:
And a blazer or maybe a tweed
The barest essentials a poet would need
WOMAN:
Live in your barbarous jungle
Screaming for ways to get clear
MAN:
When all the screaming has died away
BOTH:
Come and visit my hideaway
I will be glad to provide a way
If you can find me
I'm here
I am here
I am here
I am here
I am here, here, here!
