Named after this song, and everytime It comes on I think of my life and it makes me want to cry. Tears of happiness, sadness and nostalgia. These lyrics continue to ring true to my heart to this day and always will.
Her songs are incredible & bring back many thoughts & feelings. Thinking about when I saw Sarah live on 2nd Lilith Fair tour. Thoughts flood in of people I knew, loved & hung out with. I gotta say I miss the fun we had, miss my friends & gf a lot. I haven’t heard this song in 10 yrs & it hit me heavy. “memories light the corners of my mind.”
Been looking for this song for years since I grew up listening to it on the radio as a kid. Didn’t remember the lyrics but finally found it today! Gotta say this song is beautiful! It just me makes feel like everything is going to be okay no matter how bad things are at the moment. If you are reading this and are going through something, keep your head up! You’ll weather this storm! It can’t rain all the time.
For those wondering, the musicians are lead vocalist-pianist-acoustic guitarist Sarah McLachlan, bassist-keyboardist Pierre Marchand, bassist Brian Minato, and drummer-percussionist-backing vocalist Ashwin Sood.
Thanks for that info. Backing musicians on songs like this one (and many others) tend not to get enough credit for helping to craft the sound and feeling of the song. Sure, the song could easily stand by itself with just Sarah singing playing it on piano or guitar by herself. But the song takes on additional emotional feel and direction from what and how the other musicians played.
One of my favorite songs by Sarah McLachlan. I also love Angel and Answer..her voice is so angelic and deliberate she will forever be one of my favorite artists xoxo 😘
Love her,this is one of my favorite songs by her.I get emotional hearing it thinking about how much I miss the late 90 s and early 2000s being a preteen and teenager
I was driving home from work and I heard this song and it instantly pulled on my heart strings. My mother use to listen to this. I didn't know it word for word but it brought back specific memories from when I was young, especially the melody. Made me want to cry. Beautiful song, I am sure my mother would still listen to it if she was alive.
I loved this song years ago when it first came out.. it got me through some tough life altering times.. listening to it now I think it was directed to myself, learning what self love and forgiveness ate all about. I was abused when I was a young child, I ended up being pretty promiscuous and hooked on drugs. I realize now I was hiding my trauma and self medicating with the drugs, I’m clean now and have a different perception of life. I’ve learned I can’t change the past? But through therapy I’ve learned to deal with my past and this song Gave me hope ❤️
My mom would play this when I was really young and I had been looking for it for years. I remembered the "It's easy, we all falter" part of the melody. I found the song "How Deep is Your Love" and thought it was that, but then I heard this at a restaurant and knew this was the song. /blog
My mom would play this album all the time while she was cleaning up after dinner and stuff, as a kid never liked it this kind of stuff. Here I am over 20 years later, listening to this great song. I thank my mom for that.
This doesn't strike me as an apology song or having anything to do with an affair... it sounds like a friend trying to tell someone that humanity isn't all bad and to stop carrying all this pain and responsibility for everything awful that people do to each other on their shoulders. I may not agree with the sentiment "we are still innocent" and I sure do think it can matter when people "falter" in a way that harms others but the point of this song was trying to get someone who has been through a lot of heartache to see that humanity can still be good.
My name is Adia. I always disliked it as a kid because people ALWAYS mispronounce it. My parents found this name in a book and it means a gift from God. Now that I’m more grown up, I learned to love my name.
I swear an angel placed this CD in my childhood. Have fallen in love with it ever since. It definitely played a role in shaping my adult life. Thank you Sarah
Adia I do believe I failed you Adia I know I've let you down Don't you know I tried so hard To love you in my way It's easy, let it go... Adia I'm empty since you left me Trying to find a way to carry on I search myself and everyone To see where we went wrong There's no one left to finger There's no one here to blame There's no one left to talk to, honey And there ain't no one to buy our innocence 'Cause we are born innocent Believe me Adia, we are still innocent It's easy, we all falter Does it matter? Adia I thought that we could make it I know I can't change the way you feel I leave you with your misery Your friend who won't betray I pull you from your tower I take away your pain I show you all the beauty you possess If you'd only let yourself believe That we are born innocent Believe me Adia, we are still innocent It's easy, we all falter, does it matter? 'Cause we are born innocent Believe me Adia, we are still innocent It's easy, we all falter, does it matter? ooh Believe me Adia, we are still innocent 'Cause we are born innocent Believe me Adia, we are still innocent It's easy, we all falter, does it matter?
my teacher gave me this cd before i graduate junior and this so made me cry and cry til' now ..i'm 16 and a senior high school student..i just remember how i wasted my time. now i'm getting it up and make new story to my life. i wish people feel like this then we could have peace.
To me, this song is about someone telling about the amount of times she's telling a depressed person how beautiful they are but yet they don't see it no matter what. Like the lines, "leaving you with your misery," and "if you'd only let yourself believe," really get at me. We are born inoccent and who we are now, happy or not, wasn't how we started. I'm sure there's a lot more but a song is what it means to the eye of the beholder.
The song's actually about telling her best friend "Adia" shes sorry for taking her husband. Adia is obviously upset but she, meaning the singer is in love and they're going to be together. It's a great song.
This was suppose to be my daddy/daughter dance song (I grew up learning how to dance with my drunk father to this very song), but I wasn't good enough to make either man happy. How appropriate that the song I equate with the love of a man is the song about innocence and failing to keep one happy. To everyone: love yourself and find joy and contentment within your own self before bothering with anyone else. Keep your Innocence as long as possible for you will never get it back.
This song has always reminded me of my brother and I who had our innocence stolen as small children by predators. Now in our mid sixties, it is hard for him to get past our past and it has fractured us as siblings and when he looks at me, he is reminded of the trauma we both endured and it is too uncomfortable for him. I want to share this song with him, but he has shut me out. Perhaps I will share it with my friends and they can share it with him.
Sarah McLachlan's voice is like no other,her voice is comforting,angelic,at your deepest darkest moments in life you can listen to her music and feel comfort and hope

Some people feel depressed when they shelter in place during the COVID-19 outbreak, because the mood of Sarah McLachlan's song is considered to be depressing for many people who are fans of this Canadian lady that my dad has trouble getting used to in reality. In fact, I'm going to sing this song from Sarah McLachlan for Round 1⃣of Cafe Quarantine Karaoke in November 2022. PLEASE note that it'll be dedicated to the late Amber Hagerman. 👍🏻 if you agree with my comment.
I wish i could tell her once how much i love this song, and how i relate with it. It´s hard to believe but it helps me a lot when i get sad. Thank you very much Sarah
I love the vibrato on those repeated six-note piano passages and the bridge; that alone would classify the song as "haunting" if only it were just guitar and piano. The drums not only add nothing, they detract from the song's beauty--they suddenly announce themselves and take over. I could take or leave the bass. The first and last verses (sans coda) are what the song should be. But I love the song anyway. It's beautiful.
Ironically, it's the drummer that cause this song to be... See, this song is about Sarah marrying her best friend's ex who was Sarah's drummer at the time. Aida is not her friend's name. It's just a made up name. I think, if I'm not mistaking, her friend's name is Crystal.
Musical tastes are very much a subjective call. Respectfully, I think the drums (and other instruments) do add to the song's musical grace. That being said, I do also think that the song could very well stand alone by itself totally solo, with just her vocals and either a piano or guitar and still be great. But I think the other instrumentation, as they were played on the record, adds depth and force to the emotional power and feel of the song. I don't know if this song went through many recorded iterations with different instruments or not. Crafting instrumentation on top of a song, and the technical recording aspect, are both very much of an art form - as important as the basic songwriting. Capturing the correct "feel" for the song is critical. . .. And yet, what is considered "correct" is itself a subjective call. If the song ends up resonating deeply with a lot of people, as this one does, then it's fair to say they got it right.
This is such a beautiful song sung beautifully by a beautiful woman.... Before my father passed away this was one of his favorite songs and when he was here my family and I loved it but since he died this song sends me and the rest of my family into tears.
I love Sarah Mclachlan, but everyone at my school is always telling me that she's boring and depressing. But then again, they like rap waaaayyyy to much. I know all the words to her songs and I am proud of it.
I disagree. She just possesses depth that most modern kids can't grasp. And if all your friends are listening to rap instead, then that makes all the more sense that they'd say that. Because nothing says culturally deprived like Kanye West.
Genuine talent and skill with emotional self-analysis and introspection turned into a work of beauty vs shallow impulse-driven atonal drivel half the time lacking anything more than the most simplistic rhyming schemes often stretched to the painful breaking point as the 'artists' lack the vocabulary to compose meaningful lyrics... not even a contest.
You can argue the 1980's was the last of the great age of popular music before all the cooperates brought the stations and controlled everyhting within the next decade. The 90's did produced some good music which most of it was soft but it had true meaning and this was in the case of Sarah McLaclan and it is still a good song 14 years later.
Allegedly Sarah wrote this song after dating and marrying her friend's boyfriend. I really love this song, but as a person who's been on the losing end of a similar situation it makes the lyrics all the more heartbreaking. ... And also makes me lose a little bit of respect for someone who would do something like that to a person they cared about.
I miss these kinds of songs I HATE todays music! Like Anaconda, Fancy, or Bang Bang or any kind of meaningless songs! TODAYS MUSIC DOESNT MAKE ANY SENSE!!!
Myron , I do believe I failed you, I know I let you down, but you are my world, and I'm lost without you, I want you in my life , your are my life, I can't breathe without you, I'm empty, This is our song, I sang it to you today, I can't believe you can just think its over, What happened to Us. We were forever , now all I have left is our kids, But its a blessing to have them.
A real beautiful song.... It teaches you about sympathy and forgiveness and letting go of grudges because life is to short........ But it sounds like Elton John wrote it.. My opinion
Why would anyone ever even compare the two..? They're two completely different genres and there's obviously no competition. Sarah is amazing and timeless.
Named after this song, and everytime It comes on I think of my life and it makes me want to cry. Tears of happiness, sadness and nostalgia. These lyrics continue to ring true to my heart to this day and always will.
Me too! I was aswell named after this song. Gives me goosebumps everytime🥰
@@aidiaking9173 Too cool. 👏🏻😁
Her songs are incredible & bring back many thoughts & feelings. Thinking about when I saw Sarah live on 2nd Lilith Fair tour. Thoughts flood in of people I knew, loved & hung out with. I gotta say I miss the fun we had, miss my friends & gf a lot. I haven’t heard this song in 10 yrs & it hit me heavy. “memories light the corners of my mind.”
Hehe me too :)
You other Adias are just as beautiful as Sara and this song. Original innocence. F$&@“ original sin.

I think all that is part of it, yes, but I'm not sure how you can miss the very clear apology/admission of guilt that's in there, too.
PedoGate is real.
Ava Adams very astute and insightful. Well said.
We are full of good. Yet still broken. Spectacularly.
Agree in many ways
My mom named me,Adia, after this song!
Adia Lorraine, what a beautiful name you have
My name is Adia. I always disliked it as a kid because people ALWAYS mispronounce it. My parents found this name in a book and it means a gift from God. Now that I’m more grown up, I learned to love my name.
@dokkacat , the reason your parents give you this name, is the same reason why I named my daughter "Adia". It has such a beautiful meaning ❤

tho it's my second name
I named my daughter Adia as well!
I swear an angel placed this CD in my childhood. Have fallen in love with it ever since. It definitely played a role in shaping my adult life. Thank you Sarah
Adia I do believe I failed you
Adia I know I've let you down
Don't you know I tried so hard
To love you in my way
It's easy, let it go...
Adia I'm empty since you left me
Trying to find a way to carry on
I search myself and everyone
To see where we went wrong
There's no one left to finger
There's no one here to blame
There's no one left to talk to, honey
And there ain't no one to buy our innocence
'Cause we are born innocent
Believe me Adia, we are still innocent
It's easy, we all falter
Does it matter?
Adia I thought that we could make it
I know I can't change the way you feel
I leave you with your misery
Your friend who won't betray
I pull you from your tower
I take away your pain
I show you all the beauty you possess
If you'd only let yourself believe
That we are born innocent
Believe me Adia, we are still innocent
It's easy, we all falter, does it matter?
'Cause we are born innocent
Believe me Adia, we are still innocent
It's easy, we all falter, does it matter? ooh
Believe me Adia, we are still innocent
'Cause we are born innocent
Believe me Adia, we are still innocent
It's easy, we all falter, does it matter?

i havent heard this in years...the minute this song hit my ears once again....i started crying. :(
Myron , I do believe I failed you, I know I let you down, but you are my world, and I'm lost without you, I want you in my life , your are my life, I can't breathe without you, I'm empty, This is our song, I sang it to you today, I can't believe you can just think its over, What happened to Us. We were forever , now all I have left is our kids, But its a blessing to have them.
i love Sarah shes a great writer !!
Love it

na minha opiniao nao tem voz mais linda que a sua sarah ,mulher linda com uma voz que pouquissimas mulhers tem , obrigado por voce existir ,,,,
That's a deep song..wow..amazing
Love this song.
me too...my FAVE by her 💜
Some of the best music ever.
linda música!
listening to this just makes me sad for what music has become these days.. :(
I am hoping my daughter hears this somehow..I love her so..............
Música linda ❤
A real beautiful song.... It teaches you about sympathy and forgiveness and letting go of grudges because life is to short........ But it sounds like Elton John wrote it.. My opinion
Why would anyone ever even compare the two..? They're two completely different genres and there's obviously no competition. Sarah is amazing and timeless.
Still listening in 2018! ..❤❤
miss my college days....
Lotta truism in these lyrics...💯💯💯
This song is beautiful
