Overture III / Awake - Sleeping At Last

Lyrics by：Ryan O'Neal

Composed by：Ryan O'Neal

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 attempt

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 strength of the sea

Is tamed by the 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
