Johanna
Autor: Stephen Sondheim



Anthony
I fell you, Johanna
I fell 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…


Todd
And are you beautiful and pale,
With yellow hair, like her?
I’d want you beautiful and pale,
The way I’ve dreamed you were,
Johanna


Anthony
Johanna…


Todd
And if you’re beautiful, what then,
With yellow hair, like wheat?
I think we shall not meet again,
My little dove, me sweet
Johanna…


Anthony
I’ll steel you,
Johanna…


Todd
Goodbye, Johanna.
You’re gone, and yet you’re mine.
I’m fine, Johanna.
I’m fine.


Anthony
Johanna…


Beggar woman
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…


Todd
And if I never hear your voice,
My turtledove, me dear,
I still have reason to rejoice:
The way ahead is clear,
Johanna


Anthony
I feel you
Johanna…


Todd
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,
The way I’ve dreamed you are.
Oh look, Johanna,
A star!
A shooting star!


Anthony
Buried sweetly in your yellow hair


Beggar woman
There! There!
Somebody, somebody look up there!
Didn’t I tell you? Smell that air!
City on fire!
Quick sir! run and tell!
Warn ’em all of the witch’s spell!
There it is, there it is, the unholy smell!
Tell it to the Beadle and the police as well!
Tell ’em! Tell ’em!
Help! Fiend!
City on fire!
City on fire!
Mischief! Mischief!


Todd
And though I’ll think of you, I guess,
Until the day I die,
I thing I miss you less an less
As every day goes by,
Johanna…


Anthony
Johanna


Todd
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,
Johanna…


Anthony
I feel you,
Johanna…


Todd
Wake up, Johanna!
Another bright red day!
We learn, Johanna,
To say
Goodbye…


Anthony
I’ll steal you…
