Surrender and Certainty
written by: Sarah McLachlan
Lyrics
Collide in blindness embrace and part no fear of letting go
There’s no fight to get ahead, nowhere that they’d rather be
Safe in the arms of surrender and certainty
Caught in a moment and sure they’ll be carried
Take me back down to the water to feel that sure
Of anything….
I write your name down in the swollen sand and I walk out in the waves
I know you’re here I feel you all around me
In this sea of soothing grey
I don’t even feel the cold it’s warm as you wash over me
Safe in the arms of surrender and certainty
Caught in a moment and sure I’ll be carried
Take me back down to the water to feel that sure
Of anything…
Rain like tears stream down the windshield as we pull out on the road
You were the star by which I light my way
So how do I find my way now?
Back in the arms of surrender and certainty
Caught in a moment but sure we’ll be carried
I want to know what it feels like to be that sure
Of anything…
