Richard M. Sherman
Deep in the Dark
[CHARLOTTE]
Now is the hour when frogs and thrushes
Praise the world from the woods and rushes
Sleep, my love
Sleep, my only
Deep in the dark

[COMPANY]
Fragile and magical shadows
Silently start to appear
Lovely and lyrical, silvery miracle
Charlotte's Web

Carefully spinning her tracings
Lacy and gracefully sheer
Over and under the infinite wonder of
Charlotte's Web

Why is she spinning and weaving away all night long?
What is she trying so hard to convey with her silent song?

[TEMPLETON, spoken]
What are you doing?

[CHARLOTTE, spoken]
Working
[TEMPLETON, spoken]
Why so late?

[CHARLOTTE, spoken]
I'll be lucky if I'm finished by sunup. Go to sleep, Templeton

[TEMPLETON, spoken]
Good night, Charlotte

[CHARLOTTE, spoken]
Good night, Templeton

[COMPANY]
Sometimes when somebody loves you
Miracles somehow appear
And there in the warp and the woof is the proof of it
Charlotte's Web
