Sleeping at Last

Sleeping at Last is a band from Wheaton, Illinois, and they have come up in our relationship many of times through different songs and situations. There musical style is very smooth and flowing.  One of the things that both of us appreciate the most about them is their lyrics that are just so well thought out and smart.  smart lyrics = happiness in my opinion.  So, to start of, we have both sweat and toiled to try and come up with what each of our top 5 favourite songs are by them.  See these below.  Throughout, we may have a smattering of lyrics so that you can read what it is that makes these two guys that make up Sleeping at Last unique.
