So emotional

[amavel_bel]

I'm kinda sensitive today. I've been finishing the Valentine's layout and I started listening to some romantic songs (you know, to help my mood). The thing is I started a non-stop crying since I put the songs on the player and my work isn't goig anywhere *sniffs*. Anyway, the reason for this post, besides venting off my emotional state, is to share one of the most sad and beautiful songs I've ever heard. I'm sharing the acoustic version of the song, 'cos in this one Sarah McLachlan explains the reason why the song is so emotive. It's really worthwhile.


Take the song: Hold On by SARAH MCLACHLAN

Hold On by SARAH MCLACHLAN

Hold on
Hold on to yourself
for this is gonna hurt like hell.

Hold on
Hold on to yourself.
You know that only time can tell

What is it in me that refuses to believe
this isn't easier than the real thing.

My love
you know that you're my best friend.
You know that I'd do anything for you
and my love
let nothing come between us
my love for you is strong and true.

Am I in heaven here or
am I...
At the crossroads I am standing.

So now you're sleeping peaceful
I lie awake and pray
that you'll be strong tomorrow
and will see another day
and we will praise it
and love the light that brings a smile
across your face.

Oh god
if you're out there won't you hear me.
I know we're never talked before

and oh god
the man I love is leaving
won't you take him when he comes to your door.

Am I in heaven here or
am I in hell
at the crossroads I am standing.

So now you're sleeping peaceful
I lie awake and pray
that you'll be strong tomorrow
and we will see another day
and we will praise it
and love the light that brings a smile

So now you're sleeping peaceful
I lie awake and pray
that you'll be strong tomorrow
and we will see another day
and we will praise it
and love the light that brings a smile
across your face

Hold on
hold on to yourself
for this is gonna hurt like hell.

This song is seriously one of my favorites from her- it's helped me get through a lot. I also love "Full of Grace" by her as well...it reminds me of when it was played at the end of s2 of Buffy, when her world just collapsed around her, and it's just really powerful.

She has really great songs. I love that "Do What You Have To Do" as well, so emotional. And "Full of Grace" always reminds me of Buffy leaving.
