Building A Mystery by Sarah Mclachlan

That is the best song.

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

You live in a church
Where you sleep with voodoo dolls
And you won't give up the search
For the ghosts in the halls
You wear sandals in the snow
And a smile that won't wash away
Can you look out the window
Without your shadow getting in the way?

You're so beautiful
With an edge and charm
but so careful
When I'm in your arms

Cause you're working
Building a mystery
Holding on and holding it in
Yeah you're working
Building a mystery
And choosing so carefully

You woke up screaming aloud
A prayer from your secret god
You feed off our fears
And hold back your tears, oh
Give us a tantrum
And a know it all grin
Just when we need one
When the evening's thin

You're a beautiful
A beautiful stung up being
You're setting up your
Razor wire shrine

Cause you're working
Building a mystery
Holding on and holding it in
Yeah you're working
Building a mystery
And choosing so carefully

Ooh you're working
Building a mystery
Holding on and holding it in
Yeah you're working
Building a mystery
And choosing so carefully

Yeah you're working
Building a mystery
Holding on and holding it in
Yeah you're working
Building a mystery
And choosing so carefully

You're building a mystery

Hi Jadey,

Did you know that Sarah comes from my hometown? Woo Hoo. She's married now with a baby, and probably lives out in British Columbia. But her mum still lives here, and they come to visit.

The song I like is "Hold On". It's about her best friend dying of AIDS. She stays with him throughout the whole ordeal, praying that he will open his eyes again the next day and that will bring a smile across his face. Of course, with Sarah not being a Christian, she is not coping well with his impending death.
-----------------------------------

Hold on, hold on to yourself
For this is gonna hurt like hell,
Hold on, hold on to yourself
You know that only time will tell.

What is it in me that refuses to believe?
This isn't easier than the real thing.
My love, you know that you're my best friend;
You know I'd do anything for you.
My Love, let nothing come between us; my love for you is strong and true.
Am I in heaven here or am I....at the crossroads I am standing.

So now you're sleeping peaceful,
I lie awake and pray
That you'll be strong tomorrow
And we will see another day,
And we will praise it and love the light
That brings a smile across your face.

Oh God, if you're out there; won't you hear me?
I know we've never talked before;
And oh god, the man I love is leaving,
Won't you take him when he comes to your door?

Am I in heaven here or am I in hell?
At the crossroads I am standing.

So now you're sleeping peaceful,
I lie awake and pray
That you'll be strong tomorrow
And we will see another day
And we will praise it,
And love the light that brings a smile across your face.

Hold on, hold on to yourself
For this is gonna hurt like hell.

 

I like this one, Will Remember Me?

This reminds me of what I feel for my T and our relationship that we have and what we could have it things were different.

Will Remember You
(by Sarah McLachlan, Seamus Egan, and Dave Merenda)

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

Remember the good times that we had?
I let them slip away from us when things got bad
How clearly I first saw you smilin' in the sun
Wanna feel your warmth upon me, I wanna be the one

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

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

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

I'm so afraid to love you, but more afraid to loose
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

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

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