SWEET SURRENDER (1997) SARAH McLACHLAN

Sérgio Luiz Gallina

A canadense Sarah McLachlan é compositora, cantora e pianista. Ficou conhecida com a música "Angel", parte da trilha sonora do filme "Cidade dos Anjos" (1997), do americano Brad Silberling. É sobre um anjo que se apaixona por uma mulher, melodrama adaptado do "Asas do Desejo" (1987), do alemão Wim Wenders.

Já "Sweet Surrender", do mesmo disco que "Angel", é dessas músicas lado B que superam com folga seu lado A.

It doesn't mean much

It doesn't mean anything at all

The life I've left behind me

Is a cold room

I've crossed the last line

From where I can't return

Where every step I took in faith

Betrayed me

And led me from my home

----

And sweet surrender

Is all that I have to give

Sweet surrender

Is all that I have to give

----

You take me in

No questions asked

You strip away the ugliness

That surrounds me

Are you an angel

Am I already that gone

I only hope

That I won't disappoint you

When I'm down here

On my knees

----

And sweet surrender

Is all that I have to give

Sweet surrender

Is all that I have to give

----

And I don't understand

By the touch of your hand

I would be the one to fall

I miss the little things

I miss everything about you

----

It doesn't mean much

Tt doesn't mean anything at all

The life I left behind me

Is a cold room

----

And sweet surrender

Is all that I have to give

Sweet surrender

Is all that I have to give
