playing rapunzel - nine hundred and ninety nine lyrics
[verse: marilisa valtazanou]
nine hundred and ninety-nine nights
forty-two turns of the moon
i knew then that one night the well would run dry
i know now that night will come soon:
[verse: mich sampson]
nine hundred and ninety-nine nights
tonight, and tomorrow, and then
i’ll see the moon rise for the third and last time
as my spool of tales comes to its end
[chorus: marilisa]
only three left and there’s power in threes
in the stories i tell, there’s never a doubt
that the third one is different, the third one has magic
but what will i do, where will i be
what will become of me, when the stories run out?
[verse: mich & marilisa]
nine hundred and ninety-nine nights
three summers, three springs and two falls
the long endless nights of three frozen winters
and those were the hardest of all
[verse: mich & marilisa]
nine hundred and ninety-nine nights
too spellbound to touch me at first
i told him the tale of the faithful young daughter
who knew that her marriage was cursed
[chorus: marilisa]
only three left and there’s power in threes
in the stories i tell, there’s never a doubt
that the third one is different, the third one has magic
but what will i do, where will i be
what will become of me, when the stories run out?
[bridge: mich, marilisa]
three hundred and five when my firstborn arrived
that night was the tale of the morning star rising at dawn
six hundred and twenty – my second son came:
i told of the tale of the moon ever chasing the sun
nine hundred and seven – the smallest of three:
that night came the n0ble adventure of three brothers brave
he sleeps at my breast, but there’s power in threes
and who knows what this third one might save?
[verse: marilisa]
nine hundred and ninety-nine nights
the fear with each story’s last breath
was this tale as good as the ones gone before it
enough still to keep me from death?
[verse/outro: marilisa]
nine hundred and ninety-nine nights
three silver coins left still to spend
the last one’s the tale of the girl who told stories
and who knows how this one will end?
