Lyrics : In Buddy’s Eyes (2004)

Well, there's no way I could take a journey like this without visiting Stephen Sondheim. Stephen Sondheim. Stephen has changed the face of our American musical theater. This is his song from Follies. 

Life is slow but it seems exciting
'Cause Buddy's there
Gourmet cooking and letter writing
And knowing Buddy's there

Every morning—don't faint—
I tend the flowers
Can you believe it?
Every weekend, I paint
For umpteen hours

And, yes, I miss a lot
Living like a shut-in
No, I haven't got
Cooks and cars and diamonds
Yes, my clothes are not
Paris fashions, but in
Buddy's eyes
I'm young, I'm beautiful
In Buddy's eyes
I don't get older
So life is ducky
And time goes flying
And I'm so lucky
I feel like crying
And...

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

In Buddy's eyes
I'm young, I'm beautiful
In Buddy's arms
On Buddy's shoulder
I won't get older
Nothing dies

And all I ever dreamed I'd be
The best I ever thought of me
Is every minute there to see
In Buddy's eyes
