Sarah
I LOVE MAKONNEN Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I still think about you girl
I wonder where you are in this world
I'm saying, Sarah, you know you was my favorite girl
I always think about you girl
I wonder where you are in this world
I'm waiting on my favorite girl
I wonder where you are in the world
Seems like, every time, I can't even sleep at night
Your face always haunting mine
Wonder if I'm doing right, I'm wondering
Sarah, where are you now
I should've stayed down
You know I love you now
I'm saying, Sarah, you know you was my favorite girl
I still think about you girl
I wonder where you are in this world
I'm saying, Sarah, you know you was my favorite girl
I always wonder bout you girl
I wonder where you are in this world
See, Sarah, things ain't been the same lately
Like I been putting on lately
Like why you call my phone lately
You acting so, strange, saying you don't know my name
Knowing you know I had game
I told you girl I was on my way
So, Sarah, you know you was my favorite girl
I always wonder bout you girl
I wonder where you are in this world
So, Sarah, you know you was my favorite girl
I always think about you girl
I wonder where you are in this world
Oh, Sarah, you know you was my favorite girl
I always think about you girl
I wonder where you are in this world
The lyrics of "Sarah" are a contemplative reflection on lost love. The artist reminisces about a former lover named Sarah, who he still has strong feelings for. He describes her as his favorite girl and wonders where she is in the world. The repetition of the phrase "I always think about you girl" underscores the artist's preoccupation with Sarah, showing that he is still very much fixated on her. The chorus becomes even more poignant and desperate as he sings, "Seems like, every time, I can't even sleep at night. Your face always haunting mine. Wonder if I'm doing right, I'm wondering."
The second verse shifts the tone slightly as the artist acknowledges a change in their relationship. He notes that things haven't been the same lately and wonders why Sarah has been calling him. He feels that she is acting strangely and describes her as saying she doesn't know his name, despite knowing that he had game. This suggests that Sarah may be playing games with him or trying to distance herself from him. Nevertheless, the artist still yearns for her and wishes he knew where she was.
The lyrics of "Sarah" are a relatable exploration of love lost and the lingering feelings that can follow. The repetition throughout the song emphasizes the depth of the artist's emotions and his inability to let go of his memories of Sarah.
