Another Sleepless Night William Finn (Ft. Alison Fraser, Chip Zien, Joanna Green & Mary Testa)

[ALL]
Another sleepless night alone 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

[TEACHER]
I have been neglectful
Maybe I was dreaming
Maybe disrespectful of fair play
Oh rise, rise, or stay bound
My eyes are grey
And the world is round

[MARVIN]
I know this girl. I call her my wife. She is my wife. She is my thorn in the bushes. No happy endings and no fuss. What a girl, what a saint, what a wife ain't is my wife. So I sleep in a bed too big for one person. I'm big for one person. But this bed is bigger than both of us..[LADIES]

Another sleepless night alone in bed
The sun will fly, and does
Another book you thought was best unread
Has proved indeed, it was

[SWEETHEART]
I break a cup

[TEACHER]
Scan a poem

[WIFE]
Then I eat

[MARVIN]
Shower up

[TEACHER]
Strike a pose

[MARVIN]
Count my feet

[WIFE]
Count my toes
[SWEETHEART]
Till I'm fast asleep
Fast asleep
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

[ALL]
I am so alone
In the middle of the night

Night
Night
