idina menzel - straw into gold lyricsi wonder if you sleep right now do you realize i'm clinging to the edge of this bed i have nowhere to go--i have nowhere if i leave you'll call me quitter if i stay you'll punish me with silence and somehow you'll fall asleep...you'll fall asleep
[chorus:] well do you know that i won't sleep--no i won't sleep all night long as your silhouette turns its back on my spoon i'm mesmerized by the ricochet moon leaping this leprechaun's ["rumplestiltskin's" in next chorus] wall i'm so disenchanting intoxicated by my own tear's soul and come tomorrow when my beauty is old like a speckled princess i'll try to cash in clovers for gold so i'll light a candle and begin to write, turn to my work as refuge though my womb is a rush hour taxi ride, but i will try to metamorphose pain along my plight but i'll despise each word i write so i am clinging to the edge like some soap-opera star with her ten second fade as the light cascades do you love me anymore?
[chorus] i'll try to spin straw into gold straw into gold...straw into gold...straw into gold spinning for mercy spinning for hope spinning for love spinning for gold |
