Dear God, Sorry to disturb you, but I feel that I should be heard loud and clear. We all need a big reduction in the amount of tears. And all the people that you made in your image, See them fighting in the street 'Cause they can't make opinions meet
The winter here's cold and bitter, it's chilled us to the bone. We haven't seen the sun for weeks, too long too far from home. I feel just like I'm sinking, and I claw for solid ground. I'm pulled down by the undertow, I never thought I could feel so
I have to sort of get myself back out there and this is sort of out of the frying pan into the fire.
The night is my companion...solitude my guide....and I would be the one to hold you down, kiss you so hard, I'll take your breath away...my body aches to breathe your breath, your words keep me alive.
The first gig we ever played was in Halifax, Nova Scotia, where I'm from,
You pick me up and brush me off and tell me I'm okay, sometimes that's just what we need to get us through the day.
In the lonely light of morning, in a world that would not heal, it's the bitter taste of losing everything that I've held so dear
And he's a fantastic guy. He's a great musician and he's a joy to be around.
I thought, 'Well, why don't I get some of the women who I've had open up for me before and some artists that I really admire and respect. Let's ask them to do a few shows.'
Everybody loves you when you're easy. . .Everybody hates when you're a bore. . .Everyone is waiting for your entrance, so don't disappoint them.
Deep within I'm shaken by the violence Of existing for only youI know I can't be with youI do what I have to do.
Time after Time' is one of the best pop songs ever written, in my opinion. It's an incredible, beautiful, timeless song.
Why are there so many songs about ravens, and what's on the other side? Rainbows are visions, but only illusions. Rainbows have nothing to hide
Yet we have a great opportunity and great platform to talk about a lot of issues that are important to me and a lot of us as women and human beings.
