I laid on a duneI looked at the sky
When the children were babies and played on the beach.
You came up behind meI saw you go by
You were always so close and still within reach.
SaraSara
Whatever made you want to change your mind?
SaraSara
So easy to look atso hard to define.
I can still see them playin with their pails in the sand
They run to the water their buckets to fill.
I can still see the shells fallin out of their hands
As they follow each other back up the hill.
SaraSara
Sweet virgin angelsweet love of my life
SaraSara
Radiant jewelmystical wife.
Sleepin in the woods by a fire in the night
Drinkin white rum in a Portugal bar
Them playin leapfrog and hearin about Snow White
You in the marketplace in Savanna-la-Mar.
SaraSara
It s all so clearI could never forget
SaraSara
Lovin you is the one thing I ll never regret.
I can still hear the sounds of those Methodist bells
I d taken the cure and had just gotten through
Stayin up for days in the Chelsea Hotel
Writin "Sad-Eyed Lady of the Lowlands" for you.
SaraSara
Wherever we travel we re never apart.
Saraoh Sara
Beautiful ladyso dear to my heart.
How did I meet you? I don t know.
A messenger sent me in a tropical storm.
You were there in the wintermoonlight on the snow
And on Lily Pond Lane when the weather was warm.
Saraoh Sara
Scorpio Sphinx in a calico dress
SaraSara
You must forgive me my unworthiness.
Now the beach is deserted except for some kelp
And a piece of an old ship that lies on the shore.
You always responded when I needed your help
You gimme a map and a key to your door.
Saraoh Sara
Glamorous nymph with an arrow and bow
Saraoh Sara
Don t ever leave medon t ever go.
