Sydney Lucas - It All Comes Back (Opening) lyrics

[SMALL ALISON] Daddy! Hey, Daddy, come here, okay? I need you What are you doing? I said come here You need to do what I tell you to do Listen to me Daddy! Come here! Hey, right here! Right now! You're making mad Listen to me Listen to me Listen to me... I wanna play airplane I wanna play airplane I wanna play airplane! I wanna put my arms out and fly... Like the Red Baron in the Sopwith Camel! No, wait— Like Superman! Up in the sky 'Till I can see all of Pennsylvania... [BRUCE] Hey! Gimme a hand [SMALL ALISON] What'd you get, Daddy? [ALISON] Right, right, right [BRUCE] It's from Clyde Gibbon's barn. What a haul! He said, “Take what you want.” I said, “Clyde, are you sure?” He said, “It's all junk to me.” I said, “Okay, Clyde, okay!” C'mon. Take a look You go to auctions, yard sales, comb the dump There's crap, there's crap, there's— hey What's this? [SMALL ALISON] More crap? [BRUCE] No Linen! This is linen! Gorgeous Irish linen! See how I can tell? Right here, this floating thread, you see That's what makes it damask And the weight, the weight, this drape! And the pattern, crisp and clear! See how it's made from Matte and shine? It's tattered here, but all the rest— How beautiful! How fine! Okay, okay. What else? Oh, crap... crap... oh, dead mouse... [SMALL ALISON] Ooh, can I have it? [BRUCE] It's all yours What's this? Silver? Is this silver? Is this junk, or silver? With polish, we can tell I love how tarnish melts away Opening to luster And the mark, is there a mark? Yes, this stamp, you see right here That's how the craftsman leaves a sign That he was here and made his work So beautiful So fine... This has traveled continents to get here And crossed an ocean of time And somehow landed in this box Under a layer of grime I can't abide romantic notions Of some vague long ago I want to know what's true Dig deep into who And what And why And when Until now gives way to then [ALISON] Did you ever imagine I'd hang on to your stuff, Dad? Me either But I guess I always knew that someday I was going to draw you... In cartoons Yes, Dad, I know. You think cartoons are silly But I draw cartoons, and I need real things to draw from ‘cause I don't trust memory But, god, this thing is ghastly! You were so ecstatic when you found it At a yard sale No, no, wait— In Mr. Gibbon's barn It all comes back It all comes back It all comes back! There's you And there's me But now I'm the one who's forty-three And stuck I can't find my way through Just like you Am I just like you? [BRUCE] [ALISON]A sign that he was I can't abide romantic notionshere Of some vague long ago. And made his work [ALISON AND BRUCE] I want to know what's true Dig deep into who And what And why And when Until now gives way to then. [SMALL ALISON][ALISON] Daddy!What is true? Hey Daddy Come here, okay?Oh— I need you [SMALL ALISON][BRUCE] What are youThis has Doing?traveled to get I said come here.here So beautiful [ALISON] I wanna play [SMALL ALISON] Airplane.I wanna play airplane [ALISON] I wanna play Airplane.[SMALL ALISON] [BRUCE] I wanna playBeautiful! airplane! [ALISON AND BRUCE] What is true? [ALISON] Caption— My dad and I were exactly alike [SMALL ALISON] I see everything! [ALISON] Caption— My dad and I were nothing alike [SMALL ALISON] I'm Superman [ALISON] My dad and— My dad and I— [SMALL ALISON] But, Daddy, come back!
