Lyrics Sleeping At Last – Side By Side

A single voice
In an ocean of constant noise
But somehow our ears were trained
To recognize when we hear you call our name

Side by side
Every movement was memorized
Choreographed before
The schools of fish were born
Their patterns and plans align
All in a glorious effort to survive

There is no language for what we’ve seen
Only the sweetness that bends us to our knees
And all of these fumbling words
To explain what it means
But out hearts were buried deep in the sand

The sea unlocks
Like the lid of a music box
It shivers with foreign sound
As long as the gears stay wound
The whales will sing their song
All in a glorious effort to be strong

There’s no need to be afraid
Overwhelming love cascades
The melody will rise and swell
As it finds its way inside the shell

The mouth is a mirror
The mouth is a mirror
The mouth is a mirror
We must watch what we say

There is no language for what we’ve seen
