Drawn To The Rhythm (Live)

Sarah McLachlan · Rarities B-Sides And Other Stuff [1996]

When we wore a heart of stone

We wandered to the sea

Hoping to find some comfort there

Yearning to feel free

And we were mesmerized by the northern lights

And the smells that filled the air

And we laid us down on sandy ground

It was cold but we didn't care



We were drawn to the rhythm

Drawn into the rhythm of the sea

Yes, we were drawn to the rhythm

Drawn into the rhythm of the sea



We fell asleep and began to dream

When something woke the night

Memories stirred inside of us

The struggle and the fight

And we could feel the heat of a thousand voices

Telling us which way to go

And we cried out is there no escape

From words that play these songs?



And we were drawn to the rhythm

Drawn into the rhythm of the sea

Yes, we were drawn to the rhythm

Drawn into the rhythm of the sea



In the still and the silent dawn

Another day is born

Washed up by the tireless waves

Body bent and torn

In the face of a blinding sun

Awake only to find

That heaven is a stranger place

Than the one I'd left behind



We were drawn to the rhythm

Drawn into the rhythm of the sea

We were drawn to the rhythm

Drawn into the rhythm of the sea

Yes, we were drawn to the rhythm,

Into the rhythm, drawn into the rhythm of the sea

Yes, we were drawn to the rhythm,

Into the rhythm, drawn into the rhythm of the sea
