Until You Shine lyrics

by

Original Off Broadway Cast of Penelope



[TELEMACHUS, spoken]
Don't be so hard on yourself
Underneath all that blood, and dirt, and sweat, and gore-

[DAPHNE, spoken]
Is there a point, Telemachus?

[TELEMACHUS, spoken]
The point, Daphne, is

[sung]
You are a hidden gem
A diamond in the rough
A treasure you must dig

[DAPHNE]
The dig parts true enough

[TELEMACHUS]
You are a glint of gold
Just peeking through the muck
A lovely glint of gold
That I can't wait to pluck

[DAPHNE, spoken]
What was the last word?
[TELEMACHUS, spoken]
Pluck?

[DAPHNE, spoken]
Oh

[TELEMACHUS]
You are, if I may say
A pearl cast before swine
And I will polish you
Until you shine
Yes I will polish you
Until you shine

[DAPHNE]
Be careful what you say
I'm not like other girls
Less pearl before swine
Than swinе cast before pearls
And you arе a glint of gold
That I'd so like to pluck
But this is who I am
And here is where I'm stuck

[TELEMACHUS]
Beneath the muck I see
A spark of the divine
[DAPHNE]
Someone's had too much wine

[TELEMACHUS]
And I will polish you
Until you shine

[DAPHNE]
He wants to polish me
Until I shine

[TELEMACHUS]
If you won't come to me
Then this is what I'll do
I will spend my life
Down in the muck with you

We'll raise a herd of pigs
And if we don't smell nice
As long as I'm with you
My life is paradise

[DAPHNE]
Anywhere with you is paradise

[BOTH]
So I will raise you up
Like silver from a mine
And I will polish you
Until you shine
Yes I will polish you
Until you shine
Together
We will
Shine
