Sarah
MC Lars Lyrics

I met you in September of 2000,
I first met you and immediately felt a strong connection with you in September 2000.

My heart skipped a beat with feelings profound and
My emotions were strong and deep when I saw you for the first time.

I gave you my soul and virginity.
I gave you all of me, mentally and physically.

I loved you so much; you were the world to me.
You meant everything to me and I loved you more than anything else.

Seventeen months together and then we separated,
We were together for 17 months before we broke up.

Due to college and commitments the fantasy faded.
Because of college and life obligations, our relationship lost its initial spark.

It was hard as hell, winter quarter for me,
It was difficult for me, especially during the winter quarter.

Even though in the long run it made us free.
Despite the initial pain of the breakup, it was ultimately for the best.

And I'm not mad at you, wait, yes I am,
I don't want to be angry with you, but I still feel anger towards you.

I just wish one more time I could hold your hand
I wish I could have one last moment with you.

And say, â??Sarah, take care, until the end.
I want you to know that I still care for you and hope that you're well.

I want you to know I'll always be your friend.â??
Even though we're not together, I still want to be your friend.

I can't pretend the year never occurred,
I can't forget the year we spent together.

You always said we'd be in touch,
You promised that we would keep in touch even after we broke up.

You gave me your word.
You made a promise to me that you said you would keep.

But the full moon's dark,
Even the bright moon feels dark without you.

And Garland's gone,
One of our mutual friends, Garland, has also moved on.

And I'm tearing up your pictures
I'm getting rid of our old memories together.

As I'm writing this song.
All of these emotions and feelings are pouring out through my music.

[Chorus]
The chorus repeats throughout the song and emphasizes the feelings of confusion and moving on.

Sarah, I can't seem to find the key,
I can't seem to find closure and fully move on from our relationship.

We tossed together into the Velvet Sea,
We threw away something that was once precious and valuable to us.

You said you'd always be there,
You once told me that you would always be there for me.

But it wasn't true.
But that turned out not to be true.

But I'm over you, Sarah, I'm over you.
Even though it was difficult, I've moved on from our relationship and am ready to let go.

And when you left it had a deep effect on my life,
Your leaving had a significant impact on my life and emotions.

Cutting me sharply like a serrated knife.
It felt like a deep, painful wound that I couldn't ignore.

But Sarah I've rolled forward and my head's in the stars,
Despite all of the pain, I've moved forward with my life and have high hopes.

But some mornings when it's cold, I'll wonder how you are.
Sometimes, when I'm feeling lonely or nostalgic, I can't help but think about you.

It went sour like our showers together turning cold,
Our relationship became cold and uncomfortable like a shower with no hot water.

And I'll reminisce with passion
Even though it ended badly, I still sometimes think about our time together.

When my face is gray and old.
Even when I'm old and grey, I'll still remember our time together.

Or so I'm told we all do when we turn eighty-two,
Many people reminisce about their past relationships when they're old.

I'll think of high school, Pebble Beach, and you.
When I'm old, I'll still remember our younger years and the places we went together.

It's true I'm doing fine
I'm doing okay now, despite how difficult the breakup was.

Though you're sometimes on my mind,
Even now, I still think about you from time to time.

Your adolescent body, acceptable to fine.
I can still remember your youthful and attractive features.

But nothing gold can stay and dawn goes down today,
Our relationship couldn't last forever, and everything eventually comes to an end.

And Sarah you'll have cellulite and crow's feet some day.
Even though we may have been young and attractive once, we'll all age eventually.

Okay, hey I still love you, it's true,
At the end of the day, I still have love in my heart for you.

And I hope Whitman College is good to you.
I hope that you're doing well and that your college life has treated you kindly.

Things are okay now, though they used to seem wrong,
Even though things seemed bad for a while, they've gotten better now.

I'm over you like Sidney writing Laura's last song.
I've truly moved on from our relationship, just like how Sidney moved on from Laura in his last poem.
