Straw Into Gold lyrics
Song information
Artist: Idina Menzel Album: Still I Can't Be Still
Lyrics
I 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
