William Finn - Another Sleepless Night lyrics

[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] Bored, bored Bored, bored Bored, bored Bored, bored Bored, bored Bored Bored [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... [ALL] 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 Night
