Sleeping at Last

SLEEPING AT LAST LYRICS
"Turning Page"

I’ve waited a hundred years
But I’d wait a million more for you
Nothing prepared me for
What the privilege of being yours would do

If I had only felt the warmth within your touch
If I had only seen how you smile when you blush
Or how you curl your lip when you concentrate enough
Well I would have known
What I was living for all along
What I’ve been living for

Your love is my turning page
Where only the sweetest words remain
Every kiss is a cursive line
Every touch is a redefining phrase

I surrender who I’ve been for who you are
For nothing makes me stronger than your fragile heart
If I had only felt how it feels to be yours
Well I would have known
What I’ve been living for all along
What I’ve been living for

Though we’re tethered to the story we must tell
When I saw you, well I knew we’d tell it well
With a whisper we will tame the vicious seas
Like a feather bringing kingdoms to their knees

I’m sure by now almost everyone has one of their favorite love songs... not many know this band so I hope maybe someone finds an interest in their work. As this band is one creative band, yes they might not be like One Direction or Lady Gaga but they’re a humble band singing songs that have real meaning behind them. This song Turning page- truly changed my point of view on love and helped me look for someone and look where I am today, one happy person in a strong and healthy relationship. Everyone I’ve let listen to this song or sent to... they enjoyed it and they too loved it.

SLEEPING AT LAST is an alternative rock band, it all began in Wheaton, a three-piece band with Ryan O'Neal , lead singer and guitarist, his brother Chad O'Neal, drummer, and Dan Perdue as the bassist.

This song made it to the cinema’s as it appears twice in A Oscar award winning film Breaking dawn part 1-twilight saga
First as an instrumental when Bella Swan walks down the aisle at her wedding, then later in a honeymoon love scene.
Ryan O’ Neal said: “I think it only took me about four or five days to put the song together, I sent the song over as just a blind submission. I didn't hear anything back, and then a few months after that I got that incredible call that they told me that it made it into the final cut of the film. So needless to say, it was a good day."

Many people interpretation the song as you have waited so long for this person, and when they finally do come the emotions one feels the happiness one cannot explain. This song explains the things you notice until you find love...

“If I had only felt the warmth within your touch
If I had only seen how you smile when you blush
Or how you curl your lip when you concentrate enough
Well I would have known
What I was living for all along
What I’ve been living for...”

Everyone has their points of views when it comes to love, we all get hurt and it feels really shitty but when you find that person... that one person will change everything and this song sums it all up.
