Idina Menzel - 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
You'll fall asleep...You'll fall asleep
[Chorus:]
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 ["Rumplestiltskin's" in next chorus] wall
I'm so disenchanting
Intoxicated by my own tear's soul
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?
[Chorus]
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

Idina Menzel Straw Into Gold Comments
I would love to hear someone sing this song on an audition show. It would blow peoples mind! It's just an ingenious arrangement with an unbelievable lyricist.
yes this indie music and vocals are amazing
new to Idina Menzel. Her recorded stuff blow me away. Not such a fan when she sings live, maybe it's the acoustics. Love this song though.
favorite idina song ever...wish she would go back to this lol
her music on this album is sooo different from her music today! I like her to much to not like it
love her vocals on this song
@mikyfdh i think u mean 4:50...umm but im not quite sure i always thought it was just like a really high pitched squeal...it could be a whistle but i dont think so...im thinking its an instrument of some kind...^.^
