Sleeping At Last
Overture III / Awake
So what do I do now?
Sunrise, I'll set it into motion
Pick up right where I left off
I'll make up for all the time I've lost
Okay, maybe not
Daybreak, I'll make amends
For yesterday's twenty-four failed attempts
Now I'm afraid I'll lose my way
Before another day ends
Today, I survive
Tomorrow, make sense of my life
It's just a matter of time
Our stories will keep us alive
It's just a matter of time
Midday, I've grown a little restless
I set sail, searching for more
But the strеngth of the sea
Is tamed by thе shore
Someday, we'll build a lighthouse
A sacred ground will cast out any doubt
We'll feel so sure about our place in this mystery
God knows, I'll need guarantees
Certain certainties
And concrete science
Please, uncover my eyes
As the future unfolds
It's getting late, I'm losing heart
Maps are useless in the dark
New lines of my face
Honor every step of the way
No blade of grass is out of place
Sunset, it dawns on me
Maybe it's all necessary
The holding on, the letting go
Now take a deep breath
Let's get some rest
