Sleeping At Last

How nice it'd be if we could try everything
I'm serious, let's make a list and just begin
"What about danger? " So what. "What about risk? "Let's climb this mountain before we cross that bridge

'Cause I'm restless, I'm restless, I'm restless
For whatever comes next

How wonderful to see a smile on your face
It costs farewell tears for a welcome-home parade
A secret handshake between me and my one life
I'll find the silver lining no matter what the price

'Cause I'm hungry, I'm hungry, I'm hungry
For whatever comes next

Let me tell you another secret of the trade
It feels like sinking when I'm standing in one place
So I look to the future and I book another flight
When everything feels heavy, I've learned to travel light

But I want to be here
Truly, be here
To watch the ones that I love bloom
And I want to make room
To love them through and through and through and through
The slow and barren seasons too

I feel hope
Deep in my bones
Tomorrow will be beautiful

And I'm ready, God I'm ready, oh I'm ready
Restless and hungry, I'm ready
For whatever comes next
