Drawn to the Rhythm Lyrics by Sarah McLachlan

Closer: The Best of Sarah McLachlan

1991

When we wore a heart of stone
We wandered to the sea
Hoping to find some comfort there
Yearning to feel free
And we were mesmerized by the lull of the night
And the smells that filled the air
And we laid us down on sandy ground
It was cold but we didn't care
We were drawn to the rhythm
Drawn into the rhythm of the sea
Yes, we were drawn to the rhythm
Drawn into the rhythm of the sea
We fell asleep and began to dream
When something broke the night
Memories stirred inside of us
The struggle and the fight
And we could feel the heat of a thousand voices
Telling us which way to go
And we cried out is there no escape
From words that plague us so?
And we were drawn to the rhythm
Drawn into the rhythm of the sea
Yes, we were drawn to the rhythm
Drawn into the rhythm of the sea
In the still and the silent dawn
Another day is born
Washed up by the tireless waves
The body bent and torn
When you wake in the face of a blinding sun
And you search only to find
That heaven is a stranger place
Than what you’ve left behind
We were drawn to the rhythm
Drawn into the rhythm of the sea
We were drawn to the rhythm
Drawn into the rhythm of the sea
Yes, we were drawn to the rhythm
Into the rhythm, drawn into the rhythm of the sea
Yes, we were drawn to the rhythm
Into the rhythm, drawn into the rhythm of the sea
