Anyone know the song?
Its a female singer from the 90's I think, and it goes,
'Im a lot of faith
This is how I feel
I am cold and I am shamed, lieing naked on the floor...
The perfect sky is torn
You a little late, I'm already torn'
P.s. Does anyone know a site where one can search lyrics and get the song title and artist?

Ms Imbruglia famously caused a bit of a hoo-hah when someone congratulated her on the lyrics of Torn and she absent-mindedly replied with a simple "thanks". Cue much wailing, hand-wringing, gnashing of teeth and "Natalie claims to have written Torn" shock horror style headlines. In fact, of course, she did no such thing.
As for Anne Preven's sour grapes, maybe I'd take her more seriously if she stopped referring to the resolutely Australian Ms Imbruglia as "little Natalie from England".
