Lyrics Overture III / Awake - Sleeping At Last

Overture III / Awake

Sunrise, I’ll set it into motion\nPick up right where I left off\nI’ll make up for all the time I’ve lost\nOkay, maybe not\nDaybreak, I’ll make amends\nFor yesterday’s twenty four failed attempts\nNow I’m afraid I’ll lose my way\nBefore another day ends\nToday, I’ll survive\nTomorrow, I’ll make sense of my life\nIt’s just a matter of time\nOur stories will keep us alive\nIt’s just a matter of time\nMidday, I’ve grown a little restless\nI set sail, searching for more\nBut the strength of the sea\nIs tamed by the shore\nSomeday, we’ll build a lighthouse\nOur sacred ground will cast out any doubt\nWe’ll feel so sure about our place in this mystery\nGod knows, I’ll need guarantees\nCertain certainties\nAnd concrete science\nPlease, uncover my eyes\nAs the future unfolds\nIt’s getting late, I’m losing heart\nMaps are useless in the dark\nNew lines on my face\nHonor every step of the way\nNo blade of grass is out of place\nSunset, it dawns on me\nMaybe it’s all necessary\nThe holding on, the letting go\nNow take a deep breath\nLet’s get some rest
