Building a Mystery ~ Sarah McLachlan

"The thirst of desire is never filled nor fully satisfied."

Cicero


Apart
Haunting
Searching
Till Next We Meet
Call My Name

Apart

Apart my mind has too much time to think,
To ponder the whatifs,
And question and wonder why,
To work itself into a twisted,
Knotted tangle of foolish thoughts.

Together my heart has no time to think,
Time only to feel and respond,
And enjoy the closeness of you,
Relax and unwind and luxuriate
In the warmth of you.

Your words soothing my mind.
Your touch healing my heart.
Your essence moving my soul.

Haunting

Your voice has left its echo in my mind,
Haunting my world,
With its mocking smoothness.
Seducing me,
Entrapping me,
A willing victim.

To fight is futile,
Mere pretence at a struggle,
To ease my guilty mind,
Then sinking deliciously
Into your sensual embrace.


Searching

Have I been searching without knowing it,
Looking for something,I know not what.
I didn't even know it was missing,
Until I found it with you.

My life was happy, or so l thought,
Content, but somehow unsatisfied?
Something's missing.Is this all there is?
An emptiness, a void,Looking for an answer,
But not even sure of the question.

Feeling incomplete.
Resigned to the fact that this is it,
To want more,
To expect more,
To dream of more,
Is unrealistic.
Foolish fantasy.
Get your head out of the clouds
And back to reality

Then out of who knows where you appear,
Like some magic trick,
Out of thin air,
Or were you always hiding there,
In the shadows,
Just waiting for the right time,
To capture my heart.

Till Next We Meet

I knew that you couldn't stay,

That you were simply on loan to me for a short while,

And l've loved every minute,

And will count the seconds,

Till next we meet.

And l know that l will always have you in my heart,

In my mind, and in my soul,

Where l've always known you,

Where l will keep you,

Till next we meet.

So although l'm sad that you are leaving,

I know that the best decisions are not the easy ones,

Now is not the right time, or place,

And l'll try to be patient,

Till next we meet.

I know until then l will hear your voice in my heart,

See you face in my memories,

And feel your touch in my dreams,

Till next we meet.


Call My Name

From a far off horizon,

I hear you call my name,

In the instant of a heartbeat,

Life will never be the same.

Have you ever wondered,

If all those stories could be true?

Words of songs, and lines from poems,

Were feelings I never knew.

Sealed my heart against love,

Stonewalled it against the pain,

Rather catch the rain clouds tears,

Till I heard you call my name.

Against you I have no defenses,

From beyond the silver screen,

From a voice that echoes in my heart,

From a face within my dreams.

Everywhere your soul's shadow drifts,

I sense it's misty pain,

In the hidden moment of my lonely life,

You gently call my name.
