The Little Mermaid (Original Broadway Cast Recording)
Sweet Child
Poor child
Poor, sweet child.
She has a very serious problem, hasn't she?
Hmm, if only
there were something
we could do.
ARIEL(always spoken):
Who are you two?
(SUNG)
Sweet child
Poor child.
So tragic
so misunderstood.
Dear child
sad child.
Life's looking
shall we say
not good.
No.
Who will ease her woe's and worry's?
Who will help get her man?
Sweet child. Perhaps the Sea Witch can!
You can't possibly mean aunt Ursula?
She knows your dreams
Father says her magic is evil
She'll grant your prayer
Please I have to go!
She'll cast a charm
A tiny spell.
Why the alarm?
No one will tell
No one will care.
It's your affair.
Sweet child
Dear child
Poor child.
Sad child.
We'll bring you to her lair right now.
Bet in half a sec,
your prince and you are reconciled.
Together
Forever
Take me to her!
Sweet child.
Poor, sweet child.
She has a very serious problem, hasn't she?
Hmm, if only
there were something
we could do.
