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 throughNow 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 stayAnd 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 goAnd now it's daybreak
We were like storybook children
Hey, but like all good fairy tales, this one must end
Here is the endIt's daybreak
How can I ever leave this place beside you?
You were the only one I ever cried to
The night is throughLord 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!

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Bette Midler (December 1, 1945) is an American singer, actress, and comedian, also known to her fans and especially in gay culture, as The Divine Miss M. She was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, to Jewish parents from New Jersey, and raised there. Midler relocated to New York City to pursue acting on stage, and in 1970 she began singing at the Continental Baths, a gay bathhouse in the city, where she became close to her piano accompanist, Barry Manilow, who produced her first major album, The Divine Miss M in 1973. She is named after the actress Bette Davis although Davis pronounced her name in two syllables, and Midler uses one.

During her career, she has won four Grammy Awards, four Golden Globes, three Emmy Awards, and a Tony Award, and has been nominated for two Academy Awards. She is currently performing a new concert show, The Showgirl Must Go On, live five nights a week as one of the current headliners at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas (together with Cher and Elton John).
