I'm so afraid to love you, but more afraid to loose. Clinging to a past that doesn't let me choose. Once there was a darkness, deep and endless night. You gave me everything you had, oh you gave me light. And I will remember you. Will you remember me? Don't let your life pass you by. Weep not for the memories.

I spent a lot of years on the road, and what happens is you find out who your real friends are and you find out where your strengths and weaknesses lie in communication. I've had the same friends for 20 years now and I can count them on one hand.

People's ignorance really pisses me off. Stupidity is when you can't help it -ignorance is when you choose not to understand something.
Sarah McLachlan
Image
I didn't get hugely famous really quick. It was a slow, gradual process, so I was able to sort of grow into myself and figure out who I was and what I wanted without the glaring spotlight on me telling me who I was.

You've been gone so long from all that you know. It's been shuffled aside as you bask in the glow. All the beauitful strangers who whisper your name, do they fill up the emptiness? Larger that life is your fiction, in a universe made upon one.

I think I've become a much better singer and a much better player. Years and years of playing a couple of hours every day will do that.

Your love is better than chocolate. Better than anything else that I've tried.

It's an amazing luxury to say I'm 31 years old and I'm gonna take a year off. That's pretty amazing.
