Jonathan Groff
The Guilty Ones
[WENDLA]
Something's started crazy
Sweet and unknown
Something you keep in a box on the street
Now it's longing for a home
[COMPANY]
And who can say what dreams are?
[WENDLA]
Wake me in time to be lonely and sad
[COMPANY]
And who can say what we are?
[WENDLA]
This is the season for dreaming
And now our bodies are the guilty ones
Who touch and color the hours
Night won't breathe, oh how we
Fall in silence from the sky
[MELCHIOR & WENDLA]
And whisper some silver reply
Whoa-whoa
[MELCHIOR]
Pulse is gone and racing
All fits and starts
Window by window, you try and look into
This brave new you that you are
[COMPANY]
And who can say what dreams are?
[MELCHIOR & BOYS]
Wake me in time to be out in the cold
[COMPANY]
And who can say what we are?
This is the reason for dreaming
And now our bodies are the guilty ones
Our touch will fill every hour
Huge and dark, oh our hearts
Will murmur the blues from on high
Then whisper some silver reply
Whoa-whoa
And now our bodies are the guilty ones
Our touch will color the hours
Night won't breathe, oh how we
Fall in silence from the sky
Then whisper some silver reply
Whoa-whoa
And now our bodies are the guilty ones
