Straw Into Gold - Idina Menzel
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
