Follies movie - TOO MANY MORNINGS lyrics
rate me<br>
BEN:<br>
Too many mornings<br>
Waking and pretending I reach for you,<br>
Thousands of mornings<br>
Dreaming of my girl.<br>
All that time wasted,<br>
Merely passing through,<br>
Time I could have spent<br>
So content<br>
Wasting time with you.<br>
Too many mornings<br>
Wishing that the room might be filled with you.<br>
Morning to morning,<br>
Turning into days.<br>
All the days that I thought would never end,<br>
All the nights with another day to spend.<br>
All those times I'd look up to see<br>
Sally standing at the door<br>
Sally moving to the bed,<br>
Sally resting in my arms<br>
With her head against my head.<br>
SALLY:<br>
If you don't kiss me, Ben, I think I'm going to die.<br>
How I planned:<br>
What I'd wear tonight and<br>
When should I get here,<br>
How should I find you,<br>
Where I'd stand,<br>
What I'd say in case you didn't remember.<br>
How I'd remind you--<br>
You remembered.<br>
And my fears were wrong!<br>
Was it ever real?<br>
Did I ever love you this much?<br>
Did we ever feel<br>
So happy then?<br>
BEN:<br>
It was always real SALLY:<br>
I should have worn green.<br>
And I've always loved you<br>
this much. I wore green the last time.<br>
We can always feel <br>
The time I<br>
this happy... was happy...<br>
BOTH:<br>
Too many mornings<br>
Wasted in pretending I reach for you.<br>
How many mornings<br>
Are there still to come!<br>
How much time can we hope that there will be?<br>
Not much time, but it's time enough for me.<br>
If there's time to look up and be/see<br>
Sally standing at the door,<br>
Sally moving to the bed,<br>
Sally resting in your/my arms,<br>
With your head against my head.<br>
<br>
