Original Broadway Cast of Once
Sleeping
[GUY]
Are you sleeping?
Still dreaming?
Still drifting off alone?
I'm not leaving with this feeling
And so you'd better best be told
And how in the world did you come
To be such a lazy love?
It's so simple and fitting
That path that you are on
We're not talking, there's no secrets
There's just a note that you have gone
And all that you ever owned
Is packed in the hall to go
And how am I supposed to live without you?
A wrong word said in anger and you were gone
I'm not listening for your signals
It's all dust now on the shelf
Are you still working? You still counting?
You still buried in yourself?
And how in the world did we come
To have such an absent love?
And how am I supposed to live without you?
A wrong word said in anger and you were gone
And how am I supposed to live without anyone?
And how in the world did you come
To be such a lazy love?
And where did you go?
