Goodnight, sweet ladies...
|
Goodnight, sweet friends...
|
You lie but sleeping
|
Someday we will meet again, sweet ladies...
|
Goodnight, sweet friends...
|
You lie but sleeping
|
Someday we will meet again
|
|
[Emily, Inmates:]
|
With rosemary green and bright
|
You're not forgotten, eternal light
|
Can't fade your memory, dim your light
|
You've made your difference, you've won your fight
|
|
We lift our branches and though we weep
|
No death could conquer, you only sleep
|
Goodnight, sweet ladies...
|
Goodnight, sweet friends...
|
You lie but sleeping
|
Someday we will meet again
|
|
Goodnight, sweet ladies...
|
Goodnight, sweet friends...
|
You lie but sleeping
|
Someday we will meet again, sweet ladies...
|
Goodnight, sweet friends...
|
You lie but sleeping
|
Someday we will meet again
|
|
With rosemary green and bright
|
You're not forgotten, eternal light
|
Can't fade your memory, dim your light
|
You've made your difference, you've won your fight
|
|
We lift our branches and though we weep
|
No death could conquer, you only sleep
|
Goodnight, sweet ladies...
|
Goodnight, sweet friends...
|
You lie but sleeping
|
Someday we will meet again
|
|
Let no voice falter, let die no flame
|
Let all remember your every name
|
Let faces turn to the starry sky
|
Let songs be sung 'til our throats are dry
|
Let no voice falter, let die no flame
|
Let all remember your every name
|
Let faces turn to the starry sky
|
Let songs be sung 'til our throats are dry
|
|
Dry... dry... dry... dry...
|
|
[simultaneously]
|
Four o'clock, four o'clock...
|
Never let me sleep...
|
Four o'clock, four o'clock...
|
Never let me sleep...
|
|
[simultaneously]
|
The art of suicide...
|
Nightgowns and hair...
|
Curls flying every which where...
|
|
[simultaneously]
|
I close my eyes and pray for the garish light of day...
|
Like a frightened child I run from the sleep that never comes...
|
|
[simultaneously]
|
If I burn you will see the fire in your mind when you sleep...
|
|
[simultaneously]
|
The pain too pure to hide...
|
Bridges of sighs...
|
Meant to conceal lover's lies...
|
|
[simultaneously]
|
I close my eyes and pray for the garish light of day...
|
Like a frightened child I run from the sleep that never comes...
|
|
[simultaneously]
|
Under the arches of moonlight and sky...
|
Under the arches of moonlight and sky...
