2017 broadway cast of sunday in the park with george - beautiful lyrics
[old lady, spoken]
i remember when you were a little boy. you would rise up early on a sunday morning and go for a swim.
[george, spoken]
i do not know how to swim.
[old lady, spoken]
the boys would come by the house to get you. and your father would walk you all to the banks of the seine.
[george, spoken]
father was never faithful to us.
[old lady, spoken]
and he would give you boys careful instruction, telling you just how far to swim out.
[george, spoken]
he certainly never instructed.
[old lady, spoken]
and now, look across there, in the distance, all those beautiful trees cut down for a foolish tower.
[george, spoken]
i do not think there were ever trees there.
[old lady, spoken]
how i loved the view from here.
(sung)
changing
[george, spoken]
i’m quite certain that was an open field.
[old lady]
it keeps changing
[george, spoken]
i used to play there as a child.
[old lady]
i see towers
where there were trees
going
all the stillness
the solitude
georgie
sundays
disappearing
all the time
when things were beautiful
[george]
all things are beautiful
mother
all trees, all towers
beautiful
that tower
beautiful, mother
see?
a perfect tree
pretty isn’t beautiful, mother
pretty is what changes
what the eye arranges
is what is beautiful
[old lady]
fading
[george]
i’m changing
you’re changing
[old lady]
it keeps fading
[george]
i’ll draw us now before we fade
mother
[old lady]
it keeps melting
before our eyes
[george]
you watch
while i revise the world
[old lady]
changing
as we sit here
quick, draw it all
georgie
[george & old lady]
sundays
[old lady]
disappearing
as we look
[george, spoken]
look! look!
[old lady]
you make it beautiful
(spoken)
oh, georgie, how i long for the old view.
