Sarah
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Mother said you turned my food to poison,
To her father on a cold thanksgiving day.
The holiday's leave me with anti nausia
And so i turned my head and walked away.
You said i never had to have a reason
Just for feeling all the feelings that do.
The summer days leave me with anti sneezers
And drunken' was the day that i found you.
Sarah, (sarah)
But girl you know i love
And i'll love you for the rest of my life.
Sarah, (sarah)
I'm always thinking' of you
I'm so sorry i can't make you my wife, this life...
When no one else could make me feel as lonesome,
As you made me feel on thursday night.
Because you know, when the world misunderstands me,
Only you can make me feel alright.
I guess i thought that we could live forever
In a state of such imaginary grace,
Where you could find your diamonds in my arms, dear,
I could find a reason in your face.
Sarah, (sarah)
But girl you know i love
And i'll love you for the rest of my life.
Sarah, (sarah)
I'm always thinking' of you
I'm so sorry i can't make you my wife, this life...
And so i softly drop you at the station,
Slowly turn the key and drive away (ou ou ou)
Do you kiss my lips with hesitation
Because you were just afraid of what they might say?
Sarah, (sarah)
But girl you know i love
And i'll love you for the rest of my life.
Sarah, (sarah)
I'm always thinking' of you
I'm so sorry i can't make you my wife, this life...
Wo wo wo wo oh lord i had such plans for us.
Wo wo wo wo oh lord i had such plans for us.
