Top 15 Sarah McLachlan Quotes

So what are we saying?
Our Eden's a failure.
A made-up story to fit the picture-perfect world.
The one with "I do"s and "I love you."
And "we are made for each other."
Is forever over now?

I will be the answer
At the end of the line.
I will be there for you,
Why take the time?
In the burning of uncertainty,
I will be your solid ground.
I will hold the balance
If you can't look down.

Love has made me a fool;
It set me on fire and watched as I floundered,
Unable to speak
Except 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 burning
In this desert without you.

Hearts are worn in these dark ages;
You're not alone in this story's pages.
Night has fallen amongst the living and the dying,
And I try to hold it in, yeah I try to hold it in.

In the arms of the angel,
Fly away from here.
From this dark cold hotel room,
And the endlessness you feel.
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie.
You're in the arms of the angel;
May you find some comfort here.

Every moment marked
With apparitions of your soul.
I'm ever swiftly moving
Trying to escape this desire.

What ravages of spirit conjured
This temptuous rage;
Created you a monster,
Broken by the rule of love.

You come out at night;
That's when the energy comes.
And the dark side's light,
And the vampires roam.
You strut your rasta wear
And your suicide poem
And a cross from a faith
That died before Jesus came.
You're building a mystery.

I'm so afraid to love you, but more afraid to lose,
Clinging to a past that doesn't let me choose.
Once there was a darkness, deep and endless night;
You gave me everything you had, oh you gave me light.

I'm so tired but I can't sleep,
Standin' on the edge of something much too deep.
It's funny how we feel so much but we cannot say a word;
We are screaming inside, but we can't be heard.

I will remember you;
Will you remember me?
Don't let your life pass you by;
Weep not for the memories.

Don't tell me I haven't been good to you.
Don't tell me I have never been there for you.
Don't tell me why
Nothing is good enough.

I knew you wanted to tell me;
In your voice there was something wrong.
But if you would turn your face away from me,
You cannot tell me you're so strong.
Just let me ask of you one small thing.
As we have shared so many tears,
With fervor our dreams we planned a whole life long
Now are scattered on the wind...

Open the doors that lead on in to Eden
Don't want no cheap disguise.
I follow the signs marked back to the beginning,
No more compromise.

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?
