The ground is full of broken stones The last leaf has fallen I have nowhere to turn now Nor east nor west, north or south And all that's ahead of me Everything I know I know nothing so So bring me home
Put me on a plate with petals and a fire And send me out to sea Turn my angry sword against my heart And let me free
The dawn holds The heaviness of the night I've heard the restless sighs and lover's lies The brook, the beach and seen the devil's eyes So bring me home
I've cried for the lives I've lost Like a child in need of love Oh and I've been so close but far away from God My tears flow like a child's in need of love I've cried the tears
So let the tide take me, I won't fight I've cried the tears The small step I need to take is a mountain Stretched out like a lazy dog Send me to slaughter Lay me on the railway line, I'm far away from God My tears flow like a child's in need of love I've cried the tears So build the fire, light the flame Bring me home
莎黛独特的嗓音低沉而富有磁性,她的歌曲则像发自灵魂深处的缓缓诉说,诗意十足,有“寂静风暴”之誉。Smooth Operator, Sweetest Taboo, Someone Already Broke My Heart, By Your Side等作品为人熟知已久。而这首Bring Me Home,还有另外两首Jezebel和Pearls,最能将我打动,绝望的悲伤里蕴藏着生生不息的力量。她和乐队的现场表演往往比录音版更有感染力。
