Turning Page

I heard this song for the first time this evening. I haven't seen the newest Twilight movie, so if there are any Twihards out there, this song is so 2011 for you. But I thought it was a beautiful piece of music and wanted to share. The lyrics read like poetry. You know, there's something to be said for a good love song. Every girl wants one written for her. Take note, gentleman: I've had a few guys write me poems and it's something I'll never forget.




"Turning Page" by Sleeping At Last

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,
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.
