Sarah McLachlan Elsewhere [Live] lyrics

I love the time and in-between
The calm inside me
In the space where I can breathe
I believe there is

A distance I have wandered
To touch upon the years
Of reaching out and reaching in
Holding out, holding in

I believe this is heaven to no one else but me
And I'll defend it long as I can be
Left here to linger in silence if I choose to
Would you try to understand?

I know this love is passing time
Passing through like liquid
I am drunk in my desire

But I love the way you smile at me
I love the way your hands reach out
Hold me near
I believe, I


I believe this is heaven to no one else but me
And I'll defend it long as I can be
Left here to linger in silence if I choose to
Would you try to understand?

Oh, the quiet child awaits the day
When she can break free
The mold that clings like desperation

Mother, can't you see I've got to live my life
The way I feel is right for me?
Might not be right for you
But it's right for me, oh

I believe this is heaven to no one else but me
And I'll defend it long as I can be
Left here to linger in silence if I choose to
Would you try to understand it?

I would like to linger here in silence if I choose to
Would you understand it? Would you try?
