Sarah McLachlan - Sad Clown Lyrics

This is one of those songs that is just magic and amazing and it always seemed odd that no one had heard it.... until I put it on elevnty-seven mix tapes. (then it would get skipped by friends afraid of clowns :) It might have suffered a bit because of the name... so good that people are hearing his great stuff now.   The CD is beautiful as well, IIRC, sarah drew a lot of the art - so talented!

Such a beautiful song by an angel

When "Touch" came out, I was a pop music sales clerk in Montréal's second largest record store. The bonehead record store manager insisted to sell the LP and cassette at regular price (9,69 $)... while stupid shitty ol' Bryan Adams, Madonna and Huey Lewis were sold 5.99$ I had to be very persuasive to convince customers to shell out 10 bucks on Sarah's first LP. Music business sucks

jaaaacques Damn, R.I.P

i can't wait to sing this...without kids or boyfriend in the house, i love how the lyrics on are on it:) thanks, again it's been a few months since i've seen this video and i'm glad i found it again!

A time so haunting moonlight in the mist
Lay me down Beside you oh as long as it lasts
From the river comes a Figure drifting slowly by
Trailing long the water, leaving softer than a sigh
All the feelings they remain like a still life
A dying swan song forever lost your cries of glory
The rain is falling down like silence in a shroud
When All that really matters left to lose
I'm all alone
All the feelings they remain like a still life
A dying swan song forever lost your cries of glory

Oh Ggggggggod! This is love unrequited....

I saw her perform this song (and other tracks from Touch) in a small theater in 1989 - it was ethereal - such a beautiful young woman with the voice of an angel

kngfsh256 Wow that must've been a neat experience :)

I love the album Touch.
