# LYRICS
Waiting for something that's already gone 
You long for that prize that's already been won 
You sit by the phone but it's already rung 
While you were sleeping 
You open the window and look up the street 
Where's all the people that promised to meet you ? 
Sorry to tell you but they already knocked your door 
While you were sleeping 
You throw on some shoes and you head to the station 
You get to the office to show off your creation 
You find out they've already picked out the best of the bunch 
While you were sleeping 

You could have gone so far if you were more awake 
It's just a bitter pill your gonna have to take 
You could have done so much 
If you weren't sleeping 
If you'd have only seen a little more daylight 
You could have brought those genius thoughts to life 
You could have had it all 
If you weren't sleeping 

You set your alarm and you hatch out a plan 
You put all your faith on a second chance 
Hoping to make them all understand 
Why you were sleeping 
You turn up early and you plead your case 
But all they see are the lines on your face 
And you can't believe how many years you wasted sleeping 

You could have gone so far if you were more awake 
It's just a bitter pill your gonna have to take 
You could have done so much 
If you weren't sleeping 
If you'd have only seen a little more daylight 
You could have brought those genius thoughts to life 
You could have had it all 
If you weren't sleeping 

Wakey-wakey 'cause you're gonna miss that boat again 
Wakey-wakey 'cause you're gonna miss that boat again 
Wakey-wakey 'cause you're gonna miss that boat again 
If you're sleeping 
Wakey-wakey 'cause you're gonna miss that boat again 
Wakey-wakey 'cause you're gonna miss that boat again 
Wakey-wakey 'cause you're gonna miss that boat again 
If you're sleeping 

You could go so far now that you're more awake 
You've had enough of the pills you wanna taste the cake 
You can do so much 
Now you're not sleep

# More about The Turtle Project: 

`The Turtle Project` started out as exactly that, a project, a songwriting project that was born from years of being a musician in many bands, doing countless gigs, naturally gathering experience and inspiration until, one day, I stumbled upon the fact that I could actually put those experiences and many others into words. The composing aspect grew from that into what it is today ...

 

My way of life .
