Sarah
Scott Wenzel Lyrics

Mother said you turned my food to poison,
My mother accused you of harming me when in reality it was the disappointment I felt from you on that cold Thanksgiving day.

To her father on a cold thanksgiving day.
The day when you came and left, it affected me so that my family noticed and talked to each other about it.

The holiday's leave me with anti nausia
I don't feel excited about holidays anymore because you were once a part of them and now you're gone.

And so i turned my head and walked away.
I couldn't bear to stay with you because you hurt me so much on that Thanksgiving day.

You said i never had to have a reason
You allowed me to feel my emotions and express them without judgment.

Just for feeling all the feelings that do.
You let me be myself and accepted me for who I am.

The summer days leave me with anti sneezers
I feel so happy in the summer that I don't even have the urge to sneeze.

And drunken' was the day that i found you.
I met you while I was not sober, which signified a time of recklessness in my life.

Sarah, (sarah)
Referring to Sarah, the person he is singing to.

But girl you know i love
Acknowledging the strong feelings he has for Sarah.

And i'll love you for the rest of my life.
Declaring that he will love Sarah forever.

I'm always thinking' of you
Expressing that he can't stop thinking about Sarah.

I'm so sorry i can't make you my wife, this life...
Apologizing for not being able to marry Sarah in this lifetime.

When no one else could make me feel as lonesome,
No one else can make him feel as intensely lonely as Sarah can.

As you made me feel on thursday night.
Sarah made him feel so lonely that night when she was not around.

Because you know, when the world misunderstands me,
When everyone else doesn't understand him, Sarah does.

Only you can make me feel alright.
Only Sarah can make him feel better when the world is against him.

I guess i thought that we could live forever
He thought that his relationship with Sarah would last forever.

In a state of such imaginary grace,
He imagined that their love was perfect and pure.

Where you could find your diamonds in my arms, dear,
He believed that Sarah could find happiness and security in his embrace.

I could find a reason in your face.
He found meaning and purpose in Sarah's presence.

And so i softly drop you at the station,
He lets go of Sarah and leaves her at the train station.

Slowly turn the key and drive away (ou ou ou)
He leaves Sarah behind and drives off.

Do you kiss my lips with hesitation
He wonders if Sarah hesitated when kissing him goodbye.

Because you were just afraid of what they might say?
He questions whether Sarah didn't want to kiss him goodbye because she was afraid of what others might think.

Wo wo wo wo oh lord i had such plans for us.
He had great hopes and plans for his future with Sarah.
