kate miller-heidke - sarah (live) lyrics
[verse 1]
1997
livid festival
me and sarah my best friend
stripy tights and fairy wings
(as safe as safe can be)
[verse 2]
we drank the gin we’d snuck in
danced to ben folds five
i turned around to sarah
couldn’t see her anywhere
(as safe as safe can be)
[chorus]
oh, sarah
i didn’t mean to let you down
but you left me on my own, sarah
why didn’t you scream?
[verse 3]
i went to all the stages
and to the st john’s stand
the man said “you just missed her
stay, maybe she’ll come back again”
i sat and watched the crowds
[verse 4]
my father came at midnight
we searched til half past four
i was half hysterical
my father wasn’t sure
he called for the police
[chorus 2]
oh, sarah
i didn’t mean to let you down
but you left me on my own, sarah
why didn’t you scream?
why didn’t you shout, sarah?
i hate it that i let you down
but you left me on my own, sarah
why didn’t you scream?
why didn’t you shout?
why didn’t you shout?
[verse 5]
the next day the sergeant
found her blue dress in a creek
her parents were so angry
they put the blame on me
[verse 6]
and then a fortnight later
sarah knocked upon their door
her mother asked her, “where’ve you been?”
and she said, “i don’t know
[bridge]
i don’t know
i’m not sure
i’m not sure
i can’t remember anything at all”
[chorus 2]
oh, sarah
i didn’t mean to let you down
but you left me on my own, sarah
why didn’t you scream?
why didn’t you shout, sarah?
i hate it that i let you down
but you left me on my own, sarah
why didn’t you scream?
why didn’t you shout?
