Sleeping At Last - Chandeliers lyrics

<br>

When all of the pieces align, <br>When the balance is clearly defined, <br>We'll sigh and we'll settle down <br>For the first time <br> <br>But held in museum display, <br>Time pulls us further away. <br>And when we rebuild it, <br>All of the details fade. <br> <br>Into the tide, <br>Where the sun fills our eyes, <br>Only silhouettes <br>Will remain in the place <br>Where our rare bird of grace appeared. <br> <br>In our pale imperfect light, <br>Our palms will stabilize, <br>And your brightness <br>Will close our heavy eyes, <br>And we'll dream with you. <br>We'll dream with you. <br> <br>When we awake, we are left <br>With the eggshells inside of the nest <br>And the promise that one day soon, <br>It will come back to us... <br>When we reach into the night, <br>Where the water will rise, <br>Your wings will unbend. <br>In your brilliant display <br>All out worries will wash away. <br> <br>On pale, imperfect eyes, <br>Chandeliers rely... <br>And the brightness will <br>Weave lace out of light <br>When we dream of you. <br> <br>In our pale, imperfect light, <br>Our palms will stabilize, <br>And the brightness <br>Will close our heavy eyes, <br>When we dream of you. <br>We'll dream with you<br>
