AN: I know it's been a while, but my inspiration dissapeared, but it suddenly came back when I was rereading all your lovely reviews - thanks a lot to all who took the time to tell me what you think, it means a lot. Also a big thanks to Tina, who suggested doing this song.
This one is mainly just Lydia looking forward to going to Brighton.
Part of their world
Mel. Part of your world (The little mermaid)
Lydia:
Look at this frock
Isn't it neat
One ribbon more and my bonnet's complete
People they say I'm a girl
A girl who has everything
.
When there's a dance
My hand is sought
Nothing around here could leave me distraught
All of the townsfolk agree:
She has everything
.
I've got sisters and good confidantes
I've got suitors and dances galore
If I want anything I shall have it
But I know
Very soon
I'll have more
.
Soon I will be where the soldiers are
Soon I will see them at every party
Walking the streets they'll be looking for
Looking for me
.
Here in this town you don't get too far
Brighton's the place full of new horizons
Dashingly soldiers in redcoats
Dancing with me
.
Walk at the streets, walk by the sea
Officers everywhere flirting with me
Bursting with glee, soon I will be
Part of their world
.
What will I feel, in this ideal place full of pleasures
What will I say, to this display of gaiety
No one will scold, I can unfold
Be and do anything I want to:
Easygoing, overflowing
Sassy and bright
.
And soon I will know, what all people know
Soon I will learn how the world is turning
What would they say if brought home a
Husband in tow
.
Now it's my turn
Now I'll be free, and all the world's revolving 'round me
Now they will see, that I can be
Part of their world
