Take Me to the World lyrics

[Antonio]

Aren’t you happy here? Just the two of us in our own private world?

[Barbra]

Of course. But it’s the only world I know. And there is a whole other one outside. And I want to know that one too.

[Antonio]

No, you don’t. It’s cold and dark, full of disappointment and demands and people

[Barbra]

Yes…

(singing)

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 of skies

That's bursting with surprise

Where still I'd fill my eyes 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

[Antonio]

We’d never be alone! People would never leave us alone!

[Barbra]

But we’d be together. That would make the difference.

(singing)

Let me see the world…

[Antonio]

I have seen the world…

[Barbra]

That smiles…

Take me to the world…

[Antonio]

And it’s mean and ugly

[Barbra]

Out where I can see for miles

Take me to the world...

[Antonio]

Just to see each other here

Is fine with me

Stay here, I love you but we're happy here

Stay with me

Stay with me...

[Barbra]

Just hold my hand whenever we arrive

Let me see the world with you

Any other world will do

Take me to a world where I can be alive.

[Barbra]

If you really love me you would do this.

[Antonio]

All right.

(singing)

Do you want the world?

[Barbra]

I do…

[Antonio]

Well then, you shall have the world

[Barbra]

Thank you, my love.

[Antonio]

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 with joy

[Both]

We shall see the world come true

We shall have the world

[Barbra]

I won't be afraid with you

We shall have the world

[Both]

I’ll (You'll) hold my hand and know you're not alone

We shall have the world to keep

Such a lovely world we’ll weep

We shall have the world forever for our own
