Scared of being arrested, tired of turning the mincers handle all night long, Lovett proposes an idea to Sweeney. She wants to move to a small island. They have money, they love each other, what else is there to do??
[Duet of Lovett and Todd]
[Lovett]: Just a small island
So pink in the sunsets shine
With the endless sea
Hidden from everyone's sight.
Just the land and beach
The autumn is warm
And your hair flows in the wind
Children's laughter is heard from somewhere close
What wonder!
What an autumn!
What colors!
[Todd]: Is this it? Is this happiness?
[Lovett]: The island is uninhabited
And we are flying
Just the two of us
And we're sinking into the waves of calm
Your hand, give me your hand
For some reason, Im scared
That something from the past might come back.
But I believe in wonders!
I believe in wonders!
I believe in happiness!
[Todd]: Is this it? Is this happiness?
[Lovett]: How weird- how bright!
This is happiness
Hard- achieved happiness!
Calm, light happiness!
But Sweeney is almost insane.
He cuts his clients throats like a baker cuts bread, like a butcher chops meat...
He cannot stop, until he reaches the Judge, and then takes revenge for his broken life.
