Heaven bend to take my hand;
I’ve nowhere left to turn.
I’m lost to those I thought were friends,
To everyone I know.

Oh, they turn their heads, embarrassed,
Pretend that they don’t see.
But it’s one mis-step,
One slip before you know it,

And there doesn’t seem a way to be redeemed.

Though I’ve tried, I’ve fallen.
I have sunk so low.
I’ve messed up.
Better I should know,
So don’t come around here,
And tell me, “I told you so.�

—Sarah McLachlan, “Fallen”

   She is one of my favorite musicians….her “Mirrorball” CD is my favorite, especially the song “Do What You Have to Do”…

   Mirrorball is excellent. I find that most of her tunes improve with live performance, a sign of a true musician. Sadly lacking in many performers these days.
