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?, 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
