Marilyn McCoo, 5th Dimension — Page 2

Last night I didn't get to sleep at all, no, no
I lay awake and watched until the mornin' light
Washed away the darkness of the lonely night (lonely night)

Oh, and last night I got to thinkin' maybe I, I, I
Should call you up and just forget my foolish pride
I heard your number ringin', I went cold inside
And last night I didn't get to sleep at all

BRIDGE
I know it's not my fault, I did my best
God knows this heart of mine could use a rest
But more and more I find the dreams I left behind
Are somehow too real to replace (to replace)

Oh, last night I didn't get to sleep at all, no, no
The sleepin' pill I took was just a waste of time
I couldn't close my eyes 'cause you were on my mind
And last night I didn't get to sleep, didn't get to sleep
No, I didn't get to sleep at all at all

But more and more I find the dreams I left behind
Are somehow too real to replace (to replace)

Oh-uh-oh last night I didn't get to sleep at all no, no
The sleepin' pill I took was just a waste of time
I couldn't close my eyes 'cause you were on my mind
And last night I didn't get to sleep, didn't get to sleep
No, I didn't get to sleep at all at all

No, no, no
No, no, no

Last night I didn't get to sleep at all, no, no
Last night I didn't get to sleep at all

Night Glebby...MWAH XOXOX

i love Marilyn...
Especially the song 'One Less Bell to Answer"
"Bill" is next on my fave 5th Dimension list.
I think Marilyn has/had an amazing voice.

---

Beautiful and a great voice. Love her voice in the song "If I could reach you". Didn't she host "Solid Gold" for a while?

---

If I'm not mistaken, isn't the actual title
"Wedding Bell Blues (Bill)"???

---

Hold on...Let me get my AM Gold...

---

Never doubt 'Quise..

*BUMP*

My two best 5th Dimension-related memories are:

1) Their guest appearance on the Robert Wagner series "It Takes a Thief" in the '70s. I don't believe the group played The 5th Dimension, but the plot was that Marilyn vanished and it was all a big ruse to sell more records like the "Paul is dead" rumors during the Beatles hey day.

2) The Saturday Night Live Fat Albert and The Cosby Kids VH-1 Behind The Music Special. Fat Albert (Tracy Morgan) as an adult:

"After my fifth heart attack, it was a real wake-up call. And now I am married to the lovely Miss Marilyn McCoo.

Yes CM2 every song on those discs is a *winner*.
I love me some "Orange Air"

YES! "The Girls' Song"!
Oh tell me why
I was so unkind
I hope he picks up that line
I'll make it up to him
If he didn't change his number
If he didn't change his mind

Their harmonizing on "Blowin' Away" are on the money.

Together, oh baby let's find love...
