Bobby Barth: Sara [lyrics]

Bobby Barth

Sara

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)
