So Many People

STEPHEN SONDHEIM

I said the man for me
Must have a castle
A man of means he'd be
A man of fame
And then I met a man
Who hadn't any
Without a penny
To his name
I had to go and fall
For so much less than
What I had planned from all
The magazines
I should be good and sore
What am I happy for?
I guess the man means more
Than the means

So many people in the world
And what can they do?
They'll never know love
Like my love for you
So many people laugh
At what they don't know
But that's their concern
If just a few, say
Half a million or so
Could see us

They'd learn

So many people in the world
Don't know what they've missed
They'd never believe
Such joy could exist
And if they tell us it's a thing we'll outgrow
They're jealous as they can be
That with so many people in the world
You love me

So many people in the world
Don't know what they've missed
They'd never believe
Such joy could exist
And if they tell us it's a thing we'll outgrow
They're jealous as they can be
That with so many people in the world
You love me
