[00:10.50][Jamie]
[00:10.71]Schmuel would work till half-past ten at his tailor shop in Klimovich
[00:15.93]Get up at dawn and start again with the hems and pins and twist
[00:22.92]Forty-one years had come and gone at his tailor shop in Klimovich
[00:28.29]Watching the winters soldier on, there was one thing Schmuel missed
[00:33.30]" If I only had time," old Schmuel said
[00:37.68]" I would build the dress that's in my head
[00:40.98]A dress to fire
[00:42.48]The mad desire
[00:43.83]Of girls from here to Minsk
[00:46.32]But I have no more hours left to sew"
[00:52.17]Then the clock upon the wall began to glow...
[01:00.21]And the clock said:
[01:01.20]"Na na na na, na na na
[01:02.91]Oh Schmuel, you'll get to be happy!
[01:06.33]Na na na na, na na na
[01:08.55]I give you unlimited time!
[01:11.91]Na na na na, na na na
[01:14.07]So Schmuel, go sew and be happy!"
[01:17.01]But Schmuel said
[01:17.82]" No, no, it's not my lot
[01:20.70]I've gotta make do with the time I've got"
[01:24.18]" Oh, look at the time "
[01:33.48]Schmuel was done at half-past ten and he said "Good night, old Klimovich"
[01:38.64]Put on his coat to go, but then the clock cried, "Wait! Not yet!
[01:45.75]Even though you're not wise or rich
[01:48.18]You're the finest man in Klimovich
[01:51.00]Listen up, Schmuel
[01:52.26]Make one stitch and you'll see what you get"
[01:57.72]But Schmuel said
[01:58.62]"Clock, it's much too late
[02:00.66]I'm at peace with life
[02:02.04]I accept my fate..."
[02:03.30]But the clock said
[02:04.26]"Schmuel! One stitch and you will
[02:06.48]Unlock the dreams you've lost!"
[02:08.97]So Schmuel, with reluctance, took his thread
[02:14.85]He pulled a bolt of velvet and said
[02:20.40]" I should take out my teeth and go to bed
[02:26.37]I'm sitting her with talking clocks instead!"
[02:34.11]And the clock said:
[02:35.10]"Na na na na, na na na
[02:37.17]Oh Schmuel, you'll get to be happy!
[02:40.38]Na na na na, na na na
[02:42.63]I give you unlimited time
[02:45.93]Na na na na, na na na
[02:48.06]Just do it and you can be happy!"
[02:51.48]So Schmuel put the thread through the needle's eye
[02:54.57]And the moon stared down from a starless sky
[02:58.86]And he pushed the thread through the velvet black
[03:01.98]And he looked, and the clock was turning
[03:04.92]Back
[03:07.29]So he grabbed his shears and he cut some lace
[03:10.32]As the hands reversed on the old clock's face
[03:14.49]And his fingers flew and the fabric swirled
[03:17.46]It was nine-fifteen all around the world
[03:22.38]Every cut and stitch was a perfect fit
[03:25.77]As if God Himself were controlling it!
[03:29.13]And Schmuel cried through a rush of tears
[03:32.82]" Take me back! Take me back all forty-one years!"
[03:48.36]And on it went down that silent street
[03:53.49]Till Schmuel's dress was at last complete
[03:59.73]And he stretched his arms
[04:02.70]And he closed his eyes
[04:06.18]And the morning sun finally started to rise
[04:19.56]And the dress he made on that endless night
[04:22.71]Was a dress that would make any soul take flight
[04:26.07]Not a swatch, not a skein had gone to waste
[04:29.19]Every ribbon and button ideally placed
[04:32.64]And swen into the seams were forty-one seasons of dreams
[04:42.72]Dreams that you could feel
[04:46.02]Coming real
[04:53.64]And that very dress, so the papers swore
[04:56.97]Was the dress a girl in Odessa wore
[05:00.18]On the day she promised forevermore
[05:03.45]To love a young man named Schmuel
[05:10.74]Who only one day before
[05:14.46]Had knocked at her kitchen door
[05:28.65]Plenty have hoped and dreamed and prayed
[05:31.44]But they can't get out of Klimovich
[05:35.82]If Schmuel had been a cute goyishe maid
[05:38.82]He'd've looked a lot like you
[05:44.31]Maybe it's just that you're afraid to go out on to a limb -ovich
[05:53.13]Maybe your heart's completely swayed
[05:55.86]But your head can't follow through
[06:00.42]But shouldn't I want the world to see
[06:03.39]The brilliant girl who inspires me?
[06:06.12]Don't you think that now's a good time to be
[06:08.97]The ambitious freak you are?
[06:12.03]Say goodbye to wiping ashtrays at the bar
[06:17.73]Say hello to Cathy Hiatt, big-time star!
[06:26.43]'Cause I say:
[06:27.96]Na na na na na na na na
[06:30.24]Cathy, you get to be happy!
[06:33.27]Na na na na na na na
[06:35.52]I give you unlimited time!
[06:38.82]Na na na na na na na
[06:41.10]Stop temping and go and be happy!
[06:44.52]Here's a headshot guy and a new BackStage
[06:47.49]Where you're right for something on every page
[06:50.61]Take a breath
[06:52.14]Take a step
[06:53.64]Take a chance
[06:59.85]Take your time
[07:16.02]Have I mentioned today
[07:20.43]How lucky I am
[07:23.88]To be in love with you?!
