sleeping at last - bright sadness lyrics

Loading...

[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 sh+lls
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
get 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
