Phone rings

@sondheimlyrics Witches can be right, giants can be good in bed. Doo-doo-doo-doo doo

Witches can be right, giants can be good.

The cape as red as blood of those who moralize

Think of those crisp, aging bones on the esplanade

@sondheimlyrics And how you're always turning back too late from the grass or the stick or the dog or the light fandango

@sondheimlyrics I’m still the princess, still the prize with the big blue eyes

In Buddy’s eyes, I’m young, I’m beautiful. In Buddy’s eyes, I can’t get older. I’m still the princess, still the prize.

Late nights, quick bites, party games, deep talks, long walks, telephone calls.
