Sweeney Todd

Sweeney Todd - Johanna lyrics

ANTHONY:

I'll steal you, Johanna

I'll steal you

Do they think that walls can hide you?

Even now I'm at your window

I am in the dark beside you

Buried sweetly in your yellow hair

Johanna

SWEENEY TODD:

And are you beautiful and pale with yellow hair like her?

I'd want you beautiful and pale the way I dreamed you were.

Johanna (ANTHONY: Johanna)

And if you're beautiful what then with yellow hair like wheat

I think we shall not meet again my little dove, my sweet

(SWEENEY TODD:) Johanna

(ANTHONY: I'll steal you, Johanna)

SWEENEY TODD:

Goodbye, Johanna

You're gone and yet you're mine

I'm fine, Johanna

I'm fine (ANTHONY: Johanna)

LUCY:

Smoke!

Smoke!

Sign of the devil

Sign of the devil

City on fire!

Witch!

Witch!

Smell it sir, an evil smell

Every night at the vespers bell

Smoke that comes from the mouth of hell

City on fire!

City on fire!

Mischief!

Mischief!

Mischief!

SWEENEY TODD:

And if I never hear your voice my turtledove, my dear

I still have reason to rejoice the way ahead is clear

Johanna

(ANTHONY: I feel you)

And in that darkness when I'm blind with what I can't forget

It's always morning in my mind my little lamb, my pet

Johanna

You stay, Johanna (ANTHONY: Johanna)

The way I dreamed you are

Oh, look Johanna! A star

(ANTHONY: buried sweet in your yellow hair)

A shooting star

LUCY:

There, there!

Somebody somebody

Look up there

Didn't I tell you smell that air

City on fire!

Quick, sir, run and tell!

Warn them all of the witch;s spell

There it is, there it is; the unholy smell!

Tell it to the Beedle and the police as well!

Tell them, tell them

Help!

Fiend!

City on fire!

City on fire!

Mischief

Mischief

SWEENEY TODD:

And though I'll think of you I guess until the day I die

I think I miss you less and less as Every day goes by

Johanna (ANTHONY: Johanna)

And you'd be beautiful and pale and look too much like her

If only angels could prevail we'd be the way we were

ANTHONY:

I feel you, Johanna (SWEENEY TODD: Johanna)

SWEENEY TODD:

Wake up, Johanna

another bright red day

We learn, Johanna to say

Goodbye (ANTHONY: I'll steal you)
