Sarah McLachlan – Answer lyrics

Sarah McLachlan – Answer lyrics

Answer

I will be the answer at the end of the line
I will be there for you while you take the time
In the burning of uncertainty I will be your solid ground
I will hold the balance if you can't look down

If it takes my whole life I wont break I wont bend
Itll all be worth it worth it in the end
Cause I can only tell you what I know
That I need you in my life
When the stars have all gone out
Youll still be burning so bright

Cast me gently into morning
For the night has been unkind
Take me to a place so holy
That I can wash this from my mind
The memory of choosing not to fight

If it takes a whole life I wont break I wont bend
Itll all be worth it worth it in the end
Cause I can only tell you what I know
That I need you in my life
And when the stars have all burned out
Youll still be burning so bright
Cast me gently into morning for the night has been unkind

I THINK... the first section is about God saying to her, that he will be there when its all over, the fight of living is over. The second section I THINK, she is saying what she says to herself everyday...fight hard and God will be there when its over. The third part... I THINK she died that night and went to heaven, where she is free of her daily struggle. The last verse she repeats what she has been saying everyday while alive, to fight and in the end God will hold her, as he did in the very last sentence.
