Sarah McLachlan- What Lies Beyond (Two Birds Flying) -RARE SONG

This song was originally made for her first album Touch, but it was taken off of the track list and therefore does not appear on the album or any other album from her.

Lyrics:

All of my life Ive had a longing for knowledge
And all which lets my thoughts be free
Duties for which Im destined seem to haunt me
Confusing all I really want to need

And I see you again and I know its true
The dreams that have left me call out once again
Together well find the strengths to make love real
Because I wanted to do what I know is true
My thoughts lead me on I only see one way
The way to what lies beyond us now

Now I see you again and I know its true
My dreams that have left me call out once again
Together well find the strengths to make love real
Because I wanted to do what I know is true
My thoughts lead me on I only see one way
The way to what lies beyond
I will follow my heart

This song was also featured in the movie "The Admiral & the Princess", (the movie was done by Nova Scotia and was featured on TV in the early 90's. It was such a pretty scene... and the song was well done. Its good to see this made its way to youtube. I didn't know this existed as a song outside the movie!

I had this song on a Netwerk CD that also had Throwing Muses and The Replacements and it was amazing. I bought the CD because SHE was on it and still have it. LOVE LOVE LOVE this song, it's just TOO short.

This is the first song that I ever heard from Sarah McLachlan, it was on my first cd I ever got, it was on a Nettwerk Sound sampler...a cd with a bunch of artists on the Nettwerk label...immediately fell in love with her voice...an amazing talent!

i wish she would put all these rares on another R and Bsides, just for us die hard fans

@JimKevinMurphy I think this shows some influence from Kate, but it could never be mistaken for Kate's voice or for a Kate composition. The production also sounds a bit like Kate's "Song Of Solomon."

I remember SM saying that when she listened to some of her old stuff  in reflection, she thinks 'wow i was listening to too much Kate Bush' Listening to this, I agree with her. It sounds like Kate Bush to me. I still like it tho.
