Sweeney Todd Musical Soundtrack Lyrics
Johanna
JUDGE:
Mea culpa, mea culpa,
Mea maxima culpa,
Mea maxima maxima culpa!
God deliver me! Release me!
Forgive me! Restrain me! Pervade me!
Johanna, Johanna,
So suddenly a woman,
The light behind your window —
It penetrates your gown ...
Johanna, Johanna,
The sun — I see the sun through your —
No!
God!
Deliver me!
Deliver me!
Down!
Down.
Down ...
Johanna, Johanna,
I watch you from the shadows.
You sigh before your window
And gaze upon the town ...
Your lips part, Johanna,
So young and soft and beautiful —
God!
Deliver me!
Filth
Leave me!
Johanna, Johanna,
I treasured you in innocence
And loved you like a daughter.
You mock me, JOHANNA,
You tempt me with your innocence,
You tempt me with those quivering —
No!
God!
Deliver me!
It will
Stop
Now! It will
Stop
Right
Now.
Right
Now.
Right
Now ...
Johanna, Johanna,
I cannot keep you longer.
The world is at your window,
You want to fly away.
You stir me, Johanna,
So suddenly a woman,
I cannot watch you one more day!
God!
Deliver me!
God!
Deliver me!
God!
Deliver —
God!!
Johanna, Johanna,
I'll keep you here forever,
I'll wed you on the morrow.
Johanna, Johanna,
The world will never touch you,
I'll wed you on the morrow!
As years pass, Johanna,
You'll tend me in my solitude,
No longer as a daughter,
As a woman.
Johanna, Johanna,
I'll hold you here forever then,
You'll keep away from windows and
You'll
Deliver me,
Johanna,
From this
Hot
Red
Devil
With your
Soft
White
Cool
Virgin
Palms. ..
