Stephen Sondheim
Too Many Mornings
[Verse 1: Julian Ovenden]
Too many mornings waking and pretending I reach for you
Thousands of mornings dreaming of my girl
All that time wasted merely passing through
Time I could have spent so content wasting time with you
[Chorus: Julian Ovenden]
Too many mornings wishing that the room might be filled with you
Morning to morning turning into days
All the days that I thought would never end
All the nights with another day to spend
All those times I'd look up to see
Sally standing at the door
Sally moving to the bed
Sally resting in my arms
With her head against my head
[Verse 2: Sierra Boggess, Julian Ovenden, Sierra Boggess & Julian Ovenden]
How I planned what I'd wear tonight and when should I get here
How should I find you
Where I'd stand, what I'd say in case you didn't remеmber
How I'd remind you
You remеmbered and my fears were wrong
Was it ever real?
Did I ever love you this much?
Did we ever feel so happy then?
It was always real
I should have worn green
And I've always loved you this much
I wore green the last time
We can always feel
The time I was happy
[Chorus: Sierra Boggess & Julian Ovenden]
Too many mornings wasted in pretending I reach for you
How many mornings are there still to come!?
How much time can we hope that there will be?
Not much time, but it's time enough for me
If there's time to look up and be (See)
Sally standing at the door
Sally moving to the bed
Sally resting in my (Your) arms
With your head against my head
