Feat Sweeney Todd - The 2012 London Cast, Imelda Staunton Michael Ball My Friends / The Ballad of Sweeney Todd song lyrics
Oh my!
Them 'andles is chase silver ain't they?
Silver
Yes...
These are my friends
See how how they glisten
See this one shine
How he smiles in the light
My friend...
My faithful friend.
Speak to me, friend:
Whisper,
I'll listen
I know, I know,
You've been locked out of sight all these years!
Like me, my friend.
Well, I've come home
to find you waiting!
Home...
And we're together...
And we'll do wonders
Won't we?
You there, my friend
I'm your friend, too, Mr Todd
Come let me hold you
If you only knew, Mr Todd
Now with a sigh you grow...
Ooh Mr Todd, you're
Warm in my hands
My friend!
You've come home!
My clever friend!
Always had a fondness for you, I did.
Rest now, my friends
Never you fear, Mr Todd.
Soon I'll unfold you
You can move in here Mr Todd.
Soon you'll know
Splendours you never have dreamed all your days
Will be yours!
My lucky friends!
I'm your friend
'Til now your shine
Don't they shine beautiful?
Was merely silver
Silver's good enough for me, Mr T.
You shall drip rubies.
You'll soon drip precious
Rubies...
(Spoken) At last, my arm is complete again!
Lift your razor high, Sweeney
Hear it singing, yes!
Sink it in the rosy skin of righteousness!
His voice was soft, his manner mild.
He seldom laughed, but he often smiled.
He'd seen how civilised men behaved.
He never forgot and he never forgave.
Not Sweeney,
Not Sweeney Todd.
The Demon Barber of Fleet Street.
