Not While I'm Around
- Originally from the 1979 Broadway musical,
Sweeney Todd
- Music and Lyrics by Stephen
Sondheim
- This version taken from Barbra
Streisand's 1985 album, The Broadway Album
Nothing's gonna harm you
Not while I'm around
Nothing's gonna harm you
No sir, not while I'm around
Demons are prowling everywhere
Nowadays
I'll send 'em howling I don't care
I got ways
No one's gonna hurt you
No one's gonna dare
Others can desert you
Not to worry, whistle, I'll be there
Demons'll charm you with a smile, for a while
But in time, nothing can harm you
Not while I'm around
Being close and being clever, ain't like being true
I don't need to - I would never hide a thing from you
Like some
No one's gonna hurt you
No one's gonna dare
Others can desert you
Not to worry, whistle, I'll be there
Demons'll charm you with a smile, for a while
But in time, nothin' can harm you
Not while I'm around.
