Sara (piano demo)
Stay with me awhile
Said you'd give light
But you never told me 'bout the fire
And he was just like
A great dark wing
Within the wings of a storm
I think I had met my match
He was singing...
And undoing
Undoing
The laces
The laces
Chorus
Oh, drowning
In a sea of love...
Where everyone
Would love to drown
But now it's gone
It doesn't matter what for
When you build your house
Oh, then call me
He cried, "Sara"
You're the poet in my heart
Never change
Never stop
And now it's gone
It doesn't matter anymore
No sorrow for Sara
Oh, you can have no more
Sara ("cleaning lady" version/8:47)
I want to be a star
I don't want to be a cleaning lady
Wait a minute, baby
Stay with me awhile
Said you'd give me light
But you never told me 'bout the fire
Ooh...
Ooh ooh...
Ooh ooh...
Drowning...
In the sea of love
Where everyone would love to drown
But now it's gone
It doesn't matter what for
When you build your house
Then call me home
Ooh...ooh ooh ooh...
And he was just like
A great dark wing
Within the wings of a storm
I think I had met my match
He was singing
And undoing
And undoing
Ooh, the laces
Undoing the laces
Ooh...ooh...
Ooh...ooh
Drowning...
In the sea of love
It's where everyone
Would love to drown
And now it's gone
It doesn't matter what for
No sorrow for sorrow
You can have no more
Said Sara
You're the poet in my heart
Never change
Never stop
But now it's gone
It doesn't matter what for
But when you build your house
Oh, then call me home
Hold on...
The night is coming
And the starling flew for days
I stay home at night
All the time
I'd go anywhere...anywhere...anywhere
Ask me and I'm there
Yeah...
Ask me and I'm there
Cause I care
(the laces)
I care
(the laces)
In the sea of love
Where everyone would love to drown
But now it's gone
They say it doesn't matter anymnore
If you build your house
Then please call me home...
Sara...
You're the poet in my heart...
Never change
And don't you ever stop
Now it's gone
No...it doesn't matter anymore
When you build your house
I'll come by
Oh...dreaming
And the wind became...crazy
And he reached her gently
Dreaming...
And the wind became...crazy
Oh, there's a heartbeat
Ooh, and it never really died
Dreaming...
Never really died
Ooh...
Would you swallow all your pride
But could you speak a little louder
Dreaming...
All I ever wanted
Was to know that you were dreaming...
But there's a heartbeat
And it never really died
Never really died
No, it never really died
Never really died
And could you speak a little louder
Swallow all your pride
Oh...
Would you never change
Never change...
And the wind became
It became crazy....
And listen for that craxy wind
Because it will make you smile...
Oh, there's a heartbeat
And it never really died
Dreaming...
(Smile for my Sara)
And the wind became
Became crazy
