1.Building A Mystery

Written:Sarah Mclachlan/Pierre Marchand

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
Oh you're so beautiful
With an edge and a charm
But so careful
When I'm in your arms

(chorus)
'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

Give us a tantrum
And a know it all grin
Just when we need one
When the evening's thin

Oh you're a beautiful
A beautiful fucked up man
You're setting up your
Razor wire shrine

chorus

repeat chorus


2.I Love You

Lyrics:Sarah Mclachlan
Music:Sarah Mclachlan

I have a smile, stretched from ear to ear
To see you walking down the road
We meet at the lights, I stare for a while
The world around us dissappears

It's just you and me, on my island of hope
A breath between us could be miles
Let me surround you, my sea to your shore
Let me be the calm you seek

Oh and everytime I'm close to you,
there's too much I can't say
And you just walk away

I grieve in my condition,
For i cannot find the word to say I need you so

And I forgot, to tell you I love you
And the night's too long,
And cold here without you

Oh and everytime I'm close to you,
there's too much I can't say
And you just walk away

And I forgot, to tell you I love you
And the night's too long,
And cold here without you

I grieve in my condition,
For I cannot find the word to say I need you so


3.Sweet Sureender

Lyrics:Sarah Mclachlan
Music:Sarah Mclachlan

It doesn't mean much,
It doesn't mean anything at all
The life I've left behind me,
Was a cold room

I've crossed the last line,
From where I can't return
Where every step I took in faith,
Betrayed me

And sweet surrender,
Is all the I have to give
Sweet surrender
Is all that I have to give

You take me in,
No questions asked
You strip away the ugliness that surrounds me
Are you an angel,
Am I already the gone?
I only hope that I won't dissapoint you,
When I'm down here on my knees

And sweet surrender,
Is all the I have to give
Sweet surrender
Is all that I have to give

I don't understand,
How at the touch of your hand,
I would be the one to fall
I miss the little things,
I miss everything,
About you

And so it doesn't mean much,
It doesn't mean anything at all
The life I've left behind me,
Was a cold room

And sweet surrender,
Is all the I have to give
Sweet surrender
Is all that I have to give


4.Adia

Written:Sarah Mclachlan/Pierre Marchand

Adia I do belive I've failed you,
Adia I know I've let you down
Don't you know I've tried so hard,
To love you in my way?
It's easy let it go

Adia I'm empty since you left me,
Tryin' to find a way to carry on
I've searched myself and ev'ryone
To see where we went wrong
There's no one left to finger,
There's no one left to blame
There's no one left to talk to honey
And there ain't no one to buy our innocence

'Cause we are born,
Innocent
Belive me Adia, we are still,
Innocent
It's easy we all falter,
But does it matter?

Adia I thought that we could make it,
I know I can't change the way you feel
I'll leave you with your misery,
A friend who won't betray
Pull you from your tower,
And take away your pane
show you all the beauty you possess,
If you'd only let youself belive

That we are born,
Innocent
Belive me Adia, we are still,
Innocent
It's easy we all falter,
But does it matter?

'Cause we are born,
Innocent
Belive me Adia, we are still,
Innocent
It's easy we all falter,
But does it matter?
Belive me Adia, We are still innocent
'Cause we are born,
Innocent
Belive me Adia,
We are still innocent
It's easy we all falter,
But does it matter?


5.Do What You Have To Do

Written:Sarah Mclachlan/Coleen Wolstenholme

What ravages of spirits,
Conjured this temptuos rage?
Created You a monster,
Broken by the rule of love
And fate has led you through it,
You do what you have to do
And fate has led you through it,
You do what you have to do

And I have the sense to recognize,
That I don't know how to let you go

Every moment marked,
With apparitions of your soul
I'm ever swiftly moving,
Trying to escape this desire
The yearning to be near you,
I do what I have to do
The yearning to be near you,
I do what I have to do

And I had the sense tro recognize,
That I don't know how to let you go
I don't know how to let you go

Glowing ember, burning hot,
And burning slow
Deep within I'm shaken
By the violence of existing, for only you
I know I can't be with you,
I do what I have to do
I know I can't be with you,
I do what I have to do

And I have to sense, to recognize,
But I don't know how to let you go
I don't know how to let you go


6.Witness

Written:Sarah Mclachlan/Pierre Marchand

Make me a witness,
Take me out, out of darkness,
Out of doubt

I won't weigh you down,
With good intentions
Won't make fire out of clay,
Or other inventions

Will we burn
In heaven?
Like we do
Down here? Will the change come,
While we're waiting?
Everyone is waiting

No when we're done,
Soul searching
And we've carried the weight,
And died for the cause

Is misery, made beautiful,
Right before our eyes?
Will mercy be revealed?
Or blind us, where we stand?

Will we burn
In heaven?
Like we do
Down here? Will the change come,
While we're waiting?
Everyone is waiting

Will we burn
In heaven?
Like we do
Down here? Will the change com
While we're waiting?
Everyone is waiting


7.Angel

电影X情人主题曲
Lyrics:Sarah Mclachlan
Music:Sarah Mclachlan

Spend all your time waiting,
For that second chance
For a break that would make it okay
There's always some reason,
To feel not good enough,
And it's hard at the end of the day

I need some distraction,
Oh beautiful release
Memories seep from my veins
And may be empty,
Oh and weightless and maybe,
I'll find some peace tonight

In the arms of the angel
Fly away from here
From this dark, cold hotel room,
And the endlessness that you fear
You are brung from the wreckage,
Of your silent reverie
In the arms of the angel,
May you find, some comefort here

So tired of the straight line,
But everywhere you turn,
There's vultures and theives at your back
The storm keeps on twistin'
Keep on building the lies,
That you make up for all that you lack

It don't make no difference,
Escape one last time,
It's easier, to belive
In this sweet madness,
Oh, this glorious sadness,
That bring me to my knees

In the arms of the angel
Fly away from here
From this dark, cold hotel room,
And the endlessness that you fear
You are brung from the wreckage,
Of your silent reverie
In the arms of the angel,
May you find, some comfort here

In the arms of the angel,
May you find, some comfort here


Angel Sarah McLachlan

Spend all your time waiting for that second chance

For a break that would make it OK

There's always some reasons to feel not good enough

And it's hard at the end of the day

I need some distraction or a beautiful release

Memories seep from my veins

Let me be empty and weightless

And maybe I'll find some peace tonight


*In the arms of the angel

Fly away from here

From this dark, cold hotel room

And the endlessness that you fear

You are pulled from the wreckage of your silent reverie

In the arms of the angel

May you find some comfort here


So tired of the straight line

And everywhere you turn

There're vultures and thieves at your back

The storm keeps on twisting

You keep on building the lies

That you make up for all that you lack

It don't make no difference, escape one last time

It's easier to believe

In this sweet madness, oh this glorious sadness

That brings me to my knees ( * )


In the arms of the angel

May you find some comfort here


天 使 莎拉麦克劳兰


用全部的时间等待第二次机会

因为逃避能使一切更好

总是有理由说感觉不够好

在一日将尽之时觉得难过

我需要散散心,或是一个美丽的解脱

回忆自我的血管渗出

让我体内空无一物,了无牵挂

也许今晚我可以得到一些平静


在天使的怀里

飞离此地

远离黑暗、阴冷的旅馆房间

和你惧怕的无穷无尽

你在无声的幻梦残骸中被拉起

在天使的怀里

愿你能得到安慰


厌倦了走直线

你转弯的每一个地方

总有兀鹰和小偷跟在身后

暴风雨仍肆虐不止

你仍在建构谎言

以弥补你所欠缺的

但那于事无补,再逃避一次

会使人更容易相信

在这甜蜜的疯狂、光荣的忧伤里

使我颔首屈膝


在天使的怀里

愿你能得到安慰


8.Black & White

Lyrics:Sarah Mclachlan
Music:Sarah Mclachlan

Unravel me a distant cord
On the outside is forgotten
A constant need to get along
And the animal awakens

And all I feel
Is black and white

The road is long, the memory slides
To the whole of my undoing
Put aside, I put away
I push it back to get through each day

And all I feel
Is black and white
And I'm wound up
Small and tight
And I don't know
Who I am

Everybody loves you when you're easy
Everybody hates when you're a bore
Everyone's waiting for your entrance
So don't disappoint them

Unravel me untie this cord
The very center of our union
Is caving in, I can't endure
I am the archive of our failure

And all I feel
Is black and white
And I'm wound up
Small and tight
And I don't know
Who I am

Everybody loves you when you're easy
Everybody hates when you're a bore
Everyone's waiting for your entrance
So don't disappoint them

Everybody loves you when you're easy
So don't disappoint them
Don't disappoint them
Don't disappoint them


9.Full of Grace

Lyrics:Sarah Mclachlan
Music:Sarah Mclachlan

The winter here's cold, and bitter, it's chilled us to the bone
we haven't seen the sun for weeks, to long too far from home
I feel just like I'm sinking, and I claw for solid ground
I'm pulled down by the undertow
I never thought I could feel so low
oh darkness I feel like letting go

If all of the strength and all of the courage
come and lift me from this place
I know I could love you much better
than this full of grace
full of grace
my love

So it's better this way, I said, having seen this place before
where everything we said and did, hurts us all the more
its just that we stayed, too long, in the same old sickly skin
I'm pulled down by the undertow
I never thought I could feel so low
oh darkness I feel like letting go

If all of the strength and all of the courage
come and lift me from this place
I know I could love you much better
than this full of grace
full of grace
my love

I know I could love you much better than this

It's better this way
