Helen Folasade Adu nasceu em uma cidadezinha nas vizinhanças de Lagos, capital da Nigéria, em 16 de Janeiro de 1959. Filha de pai africano (Bisi Adu) e mãe inglesa (Anne Hayes), Sade cresceu no North End de Londres.
Sua formação musical é de diva do jazz, muito mais do que do pop: ouvia Ray Charles, Nina Simone, Al Green, Aretha Franklin e Billie Holliday. E, a grande influência confessa, a brasileira Astrud Gilberto.

AmB7E7 The ground is full of broken stones E7Am The last leaf has fallen AmB7E7 I have nowhere to turn now Not east not west Am North or south FAm And all that's ahead of me FAm And everything - I know FAmFE7 I know no-thing so no chord AmB7E7 So bring me home
AmB7E7 Put me on a plate with petals and a fire E7Am And send me out to sea AmB7E7 Turn my angry sword against my heart E7Am And let me free
FAmFAm The dawn – holds -- the heaviness of the night FAm I've heard the restless sighs and lovers lies FE7 The brook, the beach and seen the devil's eyes AmB7E7 So bring me home
Ooooooo
AmB7E7 I've cried for the lives I've lost E7Am Like a child in need of love AmB7E7Am I-I-I-I've been so close but far away from god FAmF My tears flow like a child's in need of love Am I've cried the tears
FAm So let the tide- take me FE7 I won't fight AmB7E7 I've cried the tears
Oooooo
AmB7 The small step I need to take is a mountain E7Am Stretched out like a lazy dog
AMB7 Send me to slaughter E7Am Lay me on the railway line Am I'm far away from god FAmF My tears flow like a child's in need of love Am I've cried the tears FAmFE7 So build the fire and light the flame AmB7E7 x 2 Bring me home
