Sara lyrics

Sara made the big time

just the other night.

She never lost her beauty,

she somehow lost her sight.

I knew that we were falling,

we didn't stand a chance.

Oh, why did you go?

I stood and watched it happen.

There was nothin' I could say.

I didn't have the right to,

I'm runnin' the same race.

If you bet upon the dark horse,

someday you're gonna pay.

Oh, it should've been me.

It was always, "One more time,

then I'll leave it all behind."

I'm scared of bein' alone.

Oh, Sara, come back to me.

Spread your wings and fly away.

You were too tired to run,

you were too scared to stay.

Couldn't make it through another day.

Whoa, Sara, goodbye.

Sara was my savior,

she pulled me off the street.

In the day, she was my shelter.

In the night, she was my heat.

Through all the nights of hell,

she never let me go.

Why, why was it you? 

Sara was a lover

I always counted on,

a candle in the darkness,

the calm inside the storm. 

And when I reached to touch her,

I turned and she was gone.

Oh, why did you go?

It was always, "One more time,

then I'll leave it all behind."

I'm scared of bein' alone.

Oh, Sara, come back to me.  

Spread your wings and fly away.

You were too tired to run,

you were too scared to stay.

Couldn't make it through another day, oh.

There was somethin' about her,

somethin' money never buys,

was a song in her laughter,

there was magic in her eyes.

We were good together,

we could've made it if we tried,

but you can't hold back an angel,

an angel when it's time to fly.

(Spread your wings and fly away).

(Ooh, ooh).

You were too tired to run,

you were too scared to stay.

Couldn't make it through another day, oh.  

(Ooh, Sara, goodbye, ooh).

Spread your wings and fly away.

(Ooh, ooh).

Too tired to run,

you were too scared to stay.

Couldn't make it through another day, oh.  

(Sara, goodbye). 

Sara, goodbye.

Spread your wings,

(ooh, ooh)

spread your wings and fly away, oh.

(Couldn't make it through another day).

(Ooh, Sara, goodbye).

(Spread your wings and fly away).

You were too tired to run,

(ooh, ooh)

you were too scared to stay, oh.

(Couldn't make it through another day).

(Ooh, Sara, goodbye).

(Spread your wings and fly away).

(Ooh, ooh).

(Couldn't make it through another day).

(Ooh, Sara, goodbye).

(Ooh, ooh).

(Ooh, Sara, goodbye).

(Ooh, ooh).

(Ooh, Sara, goodbye).

(Spread your wings and fly away).

(Ooh, ooh).

(Couldn't make it through another day).

(Ooh, Sara, goodbye).

(Spread your wings and fly away).
