Sarah McLachlan Lyrics

Album: Freedom Sessions

Elsewhere Lyrics

I love the time and in between

 the calm inside me

 in the space where I can breathe

 I believe there is a

 distance I have wandered

 to touch upon the years of

 reaching out and reaching in

 holding out holding in

 I believe

 this is heaven to no one else but me

 and I'll defend it as long as I can be

 left here to linger in silence

 if I choose to

 would you try to understand

 I know this love is passing time

 passing through like liquid

 I am drunk in my desire...

 but I love the way you smile at me

 I love the way your hands reach out and hold me near...

 I believe...

 I believe

 this is heaven to no one else but me

 and I'll defend it as long as

 I can be left here to linger in silence

 if I choose to

 would you try to understand

 Oh the quiet child awaits the day when she can break free

 the mold that clings like desperation

 Mother can't you see I've got

 to live my life the way I feel is right for me

 might not be right for you but it's right for me...

 I believe...

 I believe

 this is heaven to no one else but me

 and I'll defend it as long as

 I can be left here to linger in silence

 if I choose to

 would you try to understand it

 I would like to linger here in silence

 if I choose to

 would you understand it

 would you try to understand...
