Evening Primrose: Take Me to the World-Stephen Sondheim

Take Me To The World - Stephen Sondheim 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 Let me see the world that smiles Take me to the world Somewhere I can walk for miles Take me to the world With all around things growing in the ground Where birds that make a sound are birds Let me see the world that’s real I have seen the world Show me how it’s done And it’s mean and ugly Teach me how to laugh, to feel We could laugh together Move me to the sun Stay here with me Just hold my hand whenever we arrive Let it be a world with you Any other world with you Take me to a world where I can be alive 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
