Fleedwood Mac: Sara

Wait a minute baby
Stay with me awhile
Said you'd give me light
But you never told me about the fire

Drownin', in the sea of love
Where everyone would love to drown
But now it's gone, it doesn't matter what for
So when you build your house, then call me home

Oooooooo..
And it was just like a great dark wind
Within the wings of a storm
I think I had met my match
He was singin'
And undoing and undoing
The laces, undoing the laces

He said "Sara, you're the poet in my heart
Never change, never stop..."
But now it's gone, it doesn't matter what for
But when you build your house, then, call me, call me

Hold on the night is comin'
And the starling flew for days
And I would stay home at night all the time
I could go anywhere - anyway - anyway

Ask me and I'm there, yeah
Ask me and I'm there, I care
In the sea of love where everyone would love to drown
But now it's gone, they say it doesn't matter any more
Well, if you build you house then please call me,

Sara, you're the poet in my heart
Never change, and don’t you ever stop..."
But now it's gone, No, it doesn't matter anymore
When you build your house, I’ll go by

Ooooooooo, Sara
Ahhhhhhh, Oooooooo

Oh...Oooooooo, Sara, baby
There was a heartbeat and it never really died
Yes it never really died
Oh will you swallow your pride

All I ever wanted was to know that you were dreaming

Fleedwood Mac: Sara

Wait a minute baby...
Stay with me awhile
Said youd give me light
But you never told be about the fire

Drowning in the sea of love
Where everyone would love to drown
And now its gone
It doesnt matter anymore
When you build your house
Call me home

And he was just like a great dark wing
Within the wings of a storm
I think I had met my match -- he was singing
And undoing the laces
Undoing the laces

Drowning in the sea of love
Where everyone would love to drown
And now its gone
It doesnt matter anymore
When you build your house
Call me home

Hold on
The night is coming and the starling flew for days
Id stay home at night all the time
Id go anywhere, anywhere
Ask me and Im there because I care

Sara, youre the poet in my heart
Never change, never stop
And now its gone
It doesnt matter what for
When you build your house
Ill come by

Drowning in the sea of love
Where everyone would love to drown
And now its gone
It doesnt matter anymore
When you build your house
Call me home

All I ever wanted
Was to know that you were dreaming
(theres a heartbeat
And it never really died)
