Sarah McLachlan Quotes
-
Love has made me a fool;It set me on fire and watched as I floundered,Unable to speakExcept to cry out and wait for your answer.But you come around in your time,Speaking of fabulous places.Create an oasis;Dries up as soon as you're gone.You leave me here burningIn this desert without you.

Might have been the moonlight,Caught up in the sparkle in your eyes.So wicked and I know I should go slow but it's not in me to wait.Cause I'm alive and I'm on fire.Shot like a starburst into the sky.And the fury of desire it burns so bright electrifiesYou light me up, you take me higher.

Crouching down inside a deep ravine,Those angry cries pass quickly by, he can't be seen.So many ways spent hiding in so many undone plans;Forgetting what it's like to fight when no one understands.

Listen as the wind blows from across the great divide,Voices trapped in yearning, memories trapped in time.The night is my companion, and solitude my guide.Would I spend forever here and not be satisfied?And I would be the oneTo hold you down,Kiss you so hardI'll take your breath away.And after, I'd wipe away the tears,Just close your eyes dear.
-
Spend all your time waitingFor that second chance,For a break that would make it OK.There's always some reasonTo feel not good enough;And it's hard at the end of the day.I need some distraction,Oh, beautiful release.Memory seeps through my veins.Let me be empty,Oh weightless and maybeI'll find some peace tonight.

-
In the desert of my dreams I saw you there;And I'm walking towards the water steaming body cold and bare.But your words cut loose the fire and you left my soul to bleed.And the pain that's in your truth's deceiving me, has got me scared.Oh why?
-
I've been down a long road;I'd become a stranger to myself.Digging in my heels and hoping time might be kinder if I wait it out.But nothing came from wanting.And I became so small and insecure.Didn't know the cost of all I'd lost till I found it fresh and new again.

It doesn't mean much;It doesn't mean anything at all.The life I've left behind meIs a cold room.I've crossed the last lineFrom where I can't return.Where every step I took in faithBetrayed meAnd led me from my home.And sweet sweet surrenderIs all that I have to give.
