Radio Paradise (mobile)

Listen as the wind blows from across the great divide
Voices trapped in yearning, memories trapped in time
The night is my companion, and solitude my guide
Would I spend forever here and not be satisfied?
And I would be the one
To hold you down
Kiss you so hard
I'll take your breath away
And after, I'd wipe away the tears
Just close your eyes dear
Through this world I've stumbled
So many times betrayed
Trying to find an honest word to find
The truth enslaved
Oh you speak to me in riddles
And you speak to me in rhymes
My body aches to breathe your breath
Your words keep me alive
And I would be the one
To hold you down
Kiss you so hard
I'll take your breath away
And after, I'd wipe away the tears
Just close your eyes dear
Into this night I wander
It's morning that I dread
Another day of knowing of
The path I fear to tread
Oh into the sea of waking dreams
I follow without pride
Cause nothing stands between us here
And I won't be denied
And I would be the one
To hold you down
Kiss you so hard
I'll take your breath away
And after, I'd wipe away the tears
Just close your eyes...

BluEyes Aug 05, 2012 - 15:53	I love this song. I loved it before I ever heard it was inspired by a stalker. I hear it and feel it as a deeply personal love song. I love the combination of the music, the liquid mercury of her voice, and the words themselves. The total package is a 10 for me. The only radio that I usually listen to in my car is NPR so this is never overplayed for me. Thank you, Bill. [ Reply ]

Sarah McLachlan's older material, particularly this album, is a little "darker" that her more recent work. The songs on this album are not the type that you initially find yourself singing along with. Her followup album ' Surfacing ' was her breakout album, with 'Building a Mystery', 'Adia', 'Sweet Surrender' and 'Angel'. Much more accessible for most audiences (certainly more commercial). She's still awesome, but I prefer 'Fumbling Towards Ecstasy' over all her other albums. [ Reply ]

stunix Jun 17, 2012 - 15:53	Im sure wherever you guys live, this is overplayed, but most of the stations here dont play good music. an easy 9, and may reconcider upwards later as its not fair to rate a song on regularity of airplay. Stunningly talented woman and top tune. [ Reply ]

Some of us don't listen to commercial radio. Why would you suffer with all of those crappy commercials when you can listen to RP? [ Reply ]

krysthal Jan 28, 2012 - 14:15	For me, one of Sarah's best songs and without doubt, her finest album. @SinisterDexter: Still listen to the CD and love it, great hearing it on RP too! @Poacher: For me it was the other way round. Bought the CD not knowing who she was and fell in love with the music. Had it in my collection for well over 15 years now. [ Reply ]

EDIT: Another RP listener had pointed out how the world has plenty of plastic/metal discs in the world. He is right; I wish I didn't have as many as I do. Recycling is where it's at, I guess.
