Mother said "you turn my food to poison" To my father on a cold Thanksgiving day The holiday's leave me with empty noise 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 I do Summer days leave me with empty seasons And drunken was the day that I found you
Sarah (Sarah), girl you know I love you And I'll love you for the rest of my life Sarah (Sarah), I'm always thinkin' of you I'm so sorry I can't make you my wife, this life
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 all right I guess I thought that we could live forever In a state of such imaginary grace You could find your diamonds in my arms dear I could find a reason in your face
Sarah (Sarah), girl you know I love you and I'll love you for the rest of my life Sarah (Sarah), I'm always thinkin' 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 (uuummm) Do you kiss my lips with hesitation Because your just afraid of what they might say? (aii)
Sarah (Sarah), girl you know I love you and I'll love you for the rest of my life Sarah (Sarah), I'm always thinkin' of you I'm so sorry I can't make you my wife, this life
