Bette Midler - Storybook Children lyrics

Daybreak.

How can I ever leave this place beside you?

You were the only one I ever cried to.

The night is through.

Now it`s heartache.

I got to get home before he sees it`s daybreak.

Light from the sky is shining through the curtain lace.

I never really meant to stay.

And now it`s daybreak.

We were just sitting and talking.

Oh, who would have thought we`d be spending the night

dreading the light of daybreak?

How can I leave this place beside you?

How can I leave you, baby, leave you?

I don`t want to go.

And now it`s daybreak.

We were like storybook children.

Hey, but, like all good fairytales, this one must end.

Here is the end. It`s daybreak.

How can I ever leave this place beside you?

You were the only one I ever cried to.

The night is through.

Lord knows it`s daybreak.

And it feels like heartbreak.

I don`t want to leave you,

I don`t want to leave you, I need you!

Looks like it`s daybreak,

but it feels like it`s heartache.

I don`t want to leave you,

don`t make me leave you, I need you!

Daybreak.

Sunlight shining through the lace.

I need you.

Sun is smiling on your face.

I need you.

Don`t make me leave you!

Lord!
