Straw Into Gold 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

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 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?

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 Rumplestiltskin's 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

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
