The World Outside Lyrics

Elizabeth:
The curtain is olive green
The quilt on he bed is red
The carpets hue is the gentle blue
Of the seething of my head.
This is the world I know is safe,
Why do I long instead for the world I dread?
Nothing as blue as sky is
Nothing as gentle as July is.
Whispering sounds of summer to the world outside.
Nothing as fair as dawn is
Nothing as yellow tipped as corn is.
Glittering in the golden countryside.
I have my own quiet room
My very Special Private place.
But oh, to know the sun again
And feel it's glow upon my face.
Gone, all my fears
Gone every haunting shadow.
Gone forever.
Nothing as soft as spring is.
Nothing as green as each green thing is.
Roses appear andRobert & Elizabeth - The World Outside - http://motolyrics.com/robert-and-elizabeth/the-world-outside-lyrics.html
Crocuses cheer with pride.
In my longed for
Wonderful world outside.

Henriette (Spoken):
But Ba, you're missing all the bad things in the world outside.

Elizabeth:
You have your own peaceful room
And every tender loving care.
But oh, If Could leave it all
And breath the free fresh open air
Free like a bird!
Free not to fear tomorrow
Ah, tomorrow.
Nothing as cool as streams are
Nothing as foolish as my dreams are.
Longing to see but ever to be denied.
That oh so magically, marvelous
Great big, boundlessly,
Beautiful, oh wide
Wonderful world
Outside!
