another sleepless night (1985) - william finn lyrics

Loading...

[all]
another sleepless night at home in bed
another silent dawn
you try to think of things you might have said
you try to carry on

[sweetheart]
i wash my face
then drink beer
then i weep
say a prayer and induce
insincere self-abuse
till i’m fast asleep

[goldberg]
i’ve done too much talking
that was i don’t listen
that was i can’t hear what you might say
oh, look world what i’ve found
my eyes are grey and the world is round

[marvin]
he never stops
this whizzer brown
i need my sleep
fives times a night
he’ll request it;
i wanna rest it
(it will keep)
all he wants – what he wants
is a body that won’t fuss
so we sleep in a bed
too big for two people
it’s big for two people
but this bed is bigger than both of us

[ladies]
bored
bored
[marvin]
i’m feeling hot
he’ll close his eyes
and then surprise:
i’ll be awake and performing
he’ll wanna sleep
but asks for more
to put up
with a guy
like myself
must be a bore
but he sleeps in this bed
with me, a survivor
i’m feeling alive-er
than i’ve ever felt in my life before [ladies]
bored
bored

bored
bored

bored

bored

[all]
another sleepless night at home in bed
the sun will fly and does
another book you thought was best unread
has proved indeed it was

[wife]
i break a cup

[goldberg]
scan a poem

[sweetheart]
then i eat

[marvin]
shower up

[sweetheart]
strike a pose

[goldberg]
count my feet

[wife]
count my toes

[marvin]
till i’m fast asleep

[all]
fast asleep

[sweetheart]
asleep

[wife]
no one here to kick in bed
no one here to rest my head against
i am so alone
in the middle of the night

i am so alone

[sweetheart]
i am so alone

[goldberg]
i am so alone

[wife]
i am so alone

[all]
in the middle of the night

[music]

[all]
night
night
night
