Sunday (Finale)

by Stephen Sondheim

on Sunday in the Park With George (The 2006 London Cast Recording) (2006)

[GEORGE, spoken]
Dot, why did write these words?

[DOT, spoken]
They are your words, George. The words you uttered so often when you worked. 

[GEORGE, spoken]
"Order. Design. Tension. Composition. Balance. Light." Dot, I cannot read this word. 

[DOT, spoken]
"Harmony."

[ALL]
By the blue
Purple yellow red water
On the green
Orange violet mass
Of the grass

[DOT]
In our perfect park

[GEORGE]
Made of flecks of light
And dark

[ALL]
And parasols

People strolling through the trees
Of a small suburban park
On an island in the river
On an ordinary Sunday
Sunday
Sunday

[GEORGE, spoken]
"White. A blank page or canvas. His favorite. So many possibilities..."
