Sleeping At Last
Bright Sadness
[Intro]
This is such a beautiful place, this has got to be the closest thing to heaven

[Verse]
A bright sunrise through shattered glass
A fountain of youth slipping through the cracks
I drag my feet through perfect sand
Toward a future I no longer understand
But my daughters' collection of broken shells
Teach me I can still learn lessons if I let myself

[Chorus 1]
"I'll be alright, I'll be alright, I'll be alright"
It's been a year at the mercy of a merciless tide
But now we're here, clothes barely dry
We rеturn to the ocean one morе time
For you

[Refrain]
In the water
We pay attention to one another
In the water, we remember
That nothing, even death, lasts forever

[Chorus 2]
I wanna swim, I wanna swim, I wanna try
To trust in the mercy of the merciless tide
My mother taught me all will be reconciled
God, what a gift to be my mother's child
[Chorus 3]
I wanna swim, I wanna swim, and close my eyes
Be swept up in the mercy of the merciful tide
My mother believed I will be reconciled
God, what a gift to be my mother's child

[Refrain]
In the water, we remember
That nothing, even death, lasts forever
