The "classic" lineup of Jefferson Airplane, from October 1966 to February 1970, was Marty Balin (vocals), Paul Kantner (guitar, vocals), Grace Slick (vocals), Jorma Kaukonen (lead guitar, vocals), Jack Casady (bass), and Spencer Dryden (drums). Marty Balin left the band in 1971. After 1972, Jefferson Airplane effectively split into two groups. Kaukonen and Casady moved on full time to their own band, Hot Tuna. Slick, Kantner, and the remaining members of Jefferson Airplane recruited new members and regrouped as Jefferson Starship in 1974, with Marty Balin eventually joining them. Jefferson Airplane was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1996 and was presented with the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2016.
Spencer Dryden died on January 11, 2005.
Both Signe Anderson and Paul Kantner died on January 28, 2016.
Marty Balin died on September 27, 2018

Jefferson Airplane Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Move on, it's no good to go back in time
I'll never find another girl like you, for happy endings it takes two
We're fire and ice, the dream won't come true
Sara, Sara, storms are brewin' in your eyes
Sara, Sara, no time is a good time for goodbyes
Danger in the game when the stakes are high
Branded, my heart was branded while my senses stood by
I'll never find another girl like you, for happy endings it takes two
We're fire and ice, the dream won't come true
Sara, Sara, storms are brewin' in your eyes
Sara, Sara, no time is a good time, oh
Sara, Sara, storms are brewin' in your eyes
Sara, Sara, no time is a good time for goodbyes
('Cause Sara) Loved me like no one has ever loved me before
(And Sara) Hurt me, no one could ever hurt me more
(And Sara) Sara, nobody loved me anymore
I'll never find another girl like you, no
We're fire and ice, and a dream
Sara
Sara, Sara no time is a good time, oh
Sara, Sara, storms are brewin' in your eyes
Sara, Sara, no time is a good time, for good bye's
Sara, Sara, storms are brewin' in your eyes
Sara, Sara no time like the first time
Sara, Sara
Ooh Sara, why did it, why did it, why did it all fall apart
Sara, Sara (uh Sara)
Sara
The lyrics of Jefferson Starship's "Sara" express the pain of letting go of a relationship that has reached its end. The first verse urges the listener to move forward and not look back, explaining that the past cannot be changed. The singer acknowledges that they will not find another person like their former partner, but also accepts that the relationship was not meant to be. The chorus talks about the brewing storms in Sara's eyes, signifying the emotional turmoil both partners are experiencing. The second verse highlights the danger involved in playing an emotional game when the stakes are high, and the singer's heart has been branded by their experiences.
The chorus repeats, emphasizing that there is no good time for goodbyes, and Sara was a unique love who hurt the singer like no one before. The bridge changes the tone slightly, referencing the first time the pair met and how special it was. The song ends with the singer questioning why their relationship fell apart and repeating Sara's name.

Your name still echoes in my mind and heart even though you're gone

@@kellyb1597 Lol! Funny you say that, girl. I work in a footwear store. A couple weeks back a young woman visited our store that was mentally challenged, but completely in the moment.
She immediately asked my name. I told her Ted, and I asked her name. He friend said she never asks for anyone's name. Her name is Sarah. 😃
I said, "nice to meet you Sarah. One of my favorite songs ever is by a group named Jefferson Starship. It's called "Sarah", and I asked, "did they name that song after you"? 🤣
She blushed and said, "noooo". I told her, "I don't know, girl. The song is all about a special girl. I think they named it after you".
She beamed all the way out of the door. They're both about 21. Surprisingly, neither of them know who Jefferson is, much less have ever heard the song. But her friend assured her they'd listen to it the minute they hit the car.
I bet you when she heard it, she wished it was written in honor of her. 😉
