Take Me to the World

[ELLA]
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 that smiles
With streets instead of aisles
Where I can walk for miles
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 the world
Where I can be alive

Let me see the world
That smiles
Take me to the world
Somewhere I can walk
For miles
Take me to the world

With all around
Things growing in the ground
Where birds that make a sound
Are birds

Let me see the world
That's real

[CHARLES]
I have seen the world—

[ELLA]
Show me how it's done

[CHARLES]
—And it's mean and ugly

[ELLA]
Teach me how to laugh
To feel

[CHARLES]
We could laugh together here

[ELLA]
Move me to the sun

[CHARLES]
Stay here with me

[ELLA]
Just hold—

[CHARLES]
Stay here

[ELLA]
—My hand—

[CHARLES]
I love you, Ella

[ELLA]
—Whenever we arrive

[CHARLES]
But we're happy here!

[ELLA]
Let it be a world—

[CHARLES]
Stay with me

[ELLA]
—With you
Any other world—

[CHARLES]
Stay with me

[ELLA]
—Will do
Take me to a world
Where I can be alive

[CHARLES]
Do you want the world?
Why then
You shall have the world
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

[ELLA & CHARLES]
We shall see the world
Come true
We shall have the world
I won't be afraid
With you—
We shall have the world

You'll hold my hand
And know you're not alone

[CHARLES]
You shall have the world
To keep
Such a lovely world
You'll weep

[ELLA & CHARLES]
We shall have the world
Forever
For our own!
