Possession Lyrics - Sarah McLachlan
Review The Song (6)
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
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
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
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
Wipe away the tears
Just close your eyes dear
I'll hold you down
Kiss you so hard
I'll take your breath away
And after I
Wipe away the tears
Just close your eyes
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
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
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
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
Wipe away the tears
Just close your eyes dear
I'll hold you down
Kiss you so hard
I'll take your breath away
And after I
Wipe away the tears
Just close your eyes

Did you know that the lyrics for this song came from the love notes she was sent by a stalker? she took the words from the notes and made them into a song, he tried to sue her for it to, seriously, cuz they were like his words or something, but he didn't win, obviously
Acclaim for Possession | Reviewer: Joseph Morris | 9/12/2007
In this day and age, where we seek solitude to find ourselves, I was taking time alone to reflect on my life, I was listening to Sara M. and that song came on "Possession" and it spoke in volumes to me, every word, every key note that her voice hit sprang an emotive part of me that was so deep that it actually made me ache for love. A love so deep that its hard to fathom. Her creativity and her music makes you yearn for more, I love you is also a brilliant song, Sarah, YOU ROCK, and always will, so inspiring that song is always near my heart to this day, -Joseph D. Morris

Sarah's voice is wonderful, but her poetry is just was wonderful. The way she sings this song, in varying versions, sends chills up my spine. It reminds me of someone very special, and even before this person came into my life, I loved the song. Now the great divide has a specific meaning for me, and my body aches to breathe her breath. It's just a beautiful song.
