Sara Em is 30 years old and has been making her own music for more than 10 years. She was brought up in a christian home, and the family sang a lot together in church (pentecostal).

If you talk with Sara Em today, she will tell you that she has landed in the feeling and conviction that God loves her - not in spite of her being a lesbian, but because she is herself. Exactly as God made her.

Sara Em Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I stare until I'm blind
It seems like all of my mistakes
Are turning into white
I hope you know
I'm giving all of me
And I'll fall
(I) know You walk with me
There's nothing then to fear
Though they might not bless our love
I'll show you off in pride
I hope you know
I'm giving all of me
I'm sure you'll be
Much more than I could ever hope for
I've been waiting for you
I will fall
(But) you don't need to pick me up
I will go
Without knowing where you are
I'm walking right behind
There are times when I am scared
I'll live my life alone
But I wont give up on you
I promise to believe
I hope you know
I'm giving all of me
I'm sure you'll be
Much more than I could ever hope for
I've been waiting for you
I will fall...
I know I must keep a light on for you
Whatever happened to love being true?
Sometimes I wonder what I have to do
But I'm waiting for you
Still waiting for you
I will fall
(But) you don't need to pick me up
I will go
Without knowing where you are
I will follow you
I'm walking right behind

Sara Kays - Picture of You
🌟 Lyrics 🌟
High school graduation
Last family vacation
Trip to Michigan last year
My yearbook from seventh grade
I tore out every page
With me and threw it all away
I know there were more good times than bad
But it's easy to forget when I start looking back
So I know you wanna keep this memory
Can you keep it in the back of your head?
'Cause when I see it in a week
I'll wish I was dead
I'll wish I took the picture of you instead
Future holidays
The beach like summer break
I don't need proof that I was there
My big brother's wedding
Hope I'm not regretting
The dress that I decide to wear
So I know you wanna keep this memory
Can you keep it in the back of your head?
'Cause when I see it in a week
I'll wish I was dead
I'll wish I took the picture of you instead
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
I'll wish I took the picture of you instead
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
I know there were more good times than bad
But they keep on getting ruined by these photographs
So I know you wanna keep this memory
Can you keep it in the back of your head?
'Cause when I see it in a week
I'll wish I was dead
I'll wish I took the picture of you instead
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
I'll wish I took the picture of you instead
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
