Fallen--Sarah Mclachlan

Heaven bent to take my hand
And lead me through the fire
Be the long awaited answer
To a long and painful fight

Truth be told I've tried my best
But somewhere along the way
I got caught up in all there was to offer
And the cost was so much more than I could bear

Though I've tried, I've fallen...
I have sunk so low
I have messed up
Better I should know
So don't come round here
And tell me I told you so...

We all begin with good intent
Love was raw and young
We believed that we could change ourselves
THe past could be undone
But we carry on our backs the burden
Time always reveals
The lonely light of morning
The wound that would not heal
It's the bitter taste of losing everything
That I have held so dear.

I've fallen...
I have sunk so low
I have messed up
Better I should know
So don't come round here
And tell me I told you so...

Heaven bent to take my hand
Nowhere left to turn
I'm lost to those I thought were friends
To everyone I know
Oh they turned their heads embarassed
Pretend that they don't see
But it's one missed step
You'll slip before you know it
And there doesn't seem a way to be redeemed

Though I've tried, I've fallen...
I have sunk so low
I have messed up
Better I should know
So don't come round here
And tell me I told you so...


    
Sarah McLachlan

  Sarah McLachlan在西洋歌坛众多才女中享有崇高地位,八八年出道后,就已经是加拿大歌坛新生代最被看好的创作才女,几年来,她的专辑《Fumbling Towards Ecstasy》和《Surfacing》更让Sarah McLachlan成为西洋歌坛“知性女声掌门人”,迄今她已出版八张专辑,写下两千五百万张唱片销售,并且夺取三座葛莱美奖,包括两座最佳女歌手的肯定,而97年在演唱会市场及主办单位反动声浪下,她创办以歌颂女性的“莉莉丝音乐节”演唱活动,在流行音乐史上绝对可说是空前创举,三年来共有超过百名知名女艺人不计排名辈分参与,吸引两百万名观众,累计超过七百万美金公益基金,彻底将音乐和社会工作做了完美结合,声势直达高峰,为了表彰Sarah McLachlan对女性权益挺身而出的信念,及其创办“莉莉丝音乐节”的勇气,98年,纽约州长颁发了伊利莎白远见奖(Elizabeth Cady Stanton Visionary Award)给Sarah McLachlan,公开的感谢她对宣扬女性在音乐界的工作权不遗余力的重要贡献。只是在当红之际,Sarah McLachlan却选择回归家庭,喜欢下厨作菜的Sarah McLachlan甚至于99年出版食谱,也造成风潮。“莉莉丝音乐节”让Sarah McLachlan成为当代创作女声一姐,也影响众多当代多位歌手,其中,近来全球狂卖的蒂朵就是Sarah McLachlan的头号歌迷。

  Sarah McLachlan


  Sarah McLachlan最脍炙人口的歌曲当属电影《City Of Angel》主题曲《Angel》,当时因为歌曲搭配着电影剧情造成全球轰动。这首Angel在台湾先后有林凡及李圣杰翻唱,而擅长翻唱的Westlife也翻唱Angel,足见Angel的经典程度。不过,最让人津津乐道的是,原披头士成员之一Paul McCartney 99年曾因为现场聆听Sarah McLachlan演唱这首歌曲而泪流满面,原来当时他想起了已逝爱妻琳达,Sarah McLachlan的歌声给了他最多的感动。
