Stephen Sondheim - Lovely lyrics

[HERO, spoken] My name is Hero [PHILIA, spoken] My name is Philia [HERO, spoken] Philia [PHILIA, spoken] I'm a courtesan, and a courtesan has but one talent [PHILIA] I'm lovely All I am is lovely Lovely is the one thing I can do Winsome What I am is winsome Radiant as in some dream come true Oh, isn't it a shame? I can neither sew nor cook Nor read or write my name But I'm happy Merely being lovely For it's one thing I can give to you [HERO, spoken] Philia [PHILIA, spoken] Yes? [HERO, spoken] Say my name [PHILIA, spoken] Just say your name? [HERO, spoken] Yes [PHILIA, spoken] Very well. Uh... I forgot it! [HERO, spoken] It's Hero [PHILIA, spoken] Forgive me, Hero. I have no memory for names [HERO, spoken] You don't need one. You don't need anything [HERO] You're lovely Absolutely lovely Who'd believe the loveliness of you? Winsome Sweet and warm and winsome Radiant as in some dream come true [PHILIA] True [HERO] Now Venus would seem tame Helen and her thousand ships Would have to die of shame [PHILIA] And I'm happy Happy that I'm lovely For there's one thing loveliness can do It's a gift for me to share with you! [HERO] And I'm happy Happy that you're lovely For there's one thing loveliness can do It's a gift for me to share with you!
