[Anthony]

I feel you, Johanna

I feel 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've dreamed you were

[Anthony & Sweeney Todd]

Johanna

[Sweeney Todd]

And if you're beautiful, what then?

With yellow hair, like wheat

I think we shall not meet again

My little dove, my sweet

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

[Mulher]

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 turtle-dove, my dear

I still have reason to rejoice

The way ahead is clear

Johanna

[Anthony]

I feel you

[Sweeney Todd]

And in that darkness when I'm blind

With what I can't forget

[Anthony]

Johanna

[Sweeney Todd]

It's always morning in my mind

My little lamb, my pet

Johanna

You stay, Johanna

[Anthony]

Johanna

[Sweeney Todd]

The way I dreamed you were

Oh look, Johanna, a star

[Anthony]

Buried sweetly in your yellow hair

[Sweeney Todd]

A shooting star

[Mulher]

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 Beadle and police as well

Tell 'em, tell 'em, 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

[Swenney 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

[Sweeney Todd]

Wake up, Johanna!

Another bright red day

We learn, Johanna, to say

Goodbye

[Anthony]

I'll steal you
