    Story Behind the Song
    This was my ode for a woman I had a deep and abiding crush on back in the summer of 1999...and who summarily and unmercifully rejected me. :(

    I wrote the song on a lonely evening returning from school that summer on the subway. It wasn't recorded however, until 2002. It cost close to $900 and I'm still not happy with the final outcome - the vocals were essentially done in one take and it's in a bad key for my voice. But I can't afford to redo it. Anyone wanna help finance this most worthwhile endeavor? :)

    Lyrics
    A Sara walked into my class,
    I don’t know why,
    She catches my eye.

    Beautiful hair of golden brown,
    But it was those eyes I looked -
    Thought I could drown.

    I thought I could drown…
    I thought I could look in those eyes and believe...

    A That she shines with a radiant light
    Like a bright sparkling star,
    On a dark, gloomy night.

    Demure with a coy, devilish smile,
    Is she smiling at me,
    Or am I in denial?

    Am I in denial?
    Oh I would walk endless miles just to see (her sweet smile)...

    B But now she's gone…
    Like a bird who has departed over the horizon,
    Leaving me with nothing but,
    The memory of the days she was here,
    The most glorious days of my life.

    C Sara, Sara open your eyes,
    Open your eyes and see,
    I could give you the world and a thousand times,
    If you would take notice of me.

    Sara, Sara I’ve realized.
    Sara I know that it’s true.
    I could search this world over a thousand times,
    I’ll never find no one like you.

    A Sara won’t give me a chance,
    I laughed and I coo,
    Her eyes just turned askance.

    She’s bitter, she’s nasty, she’s cold,
    But I tried and I tried,
    Her sweet voice made me bold.

    Sweet voice made be bold,
    Hearin’ that voice from the cold.

    B But it’s over now,
    She has left without telling me how to reach her heart.
    Leaving me with nothing but,
    The memory of the days she was here,
    The most glorious days of my life.

    C Sara, Sara open your eyes,
    Open your eyes and see,
    I could give you the world and a thousand times,
    If you would take notice of me.

    Sara, Sara I’ve realized.
    Sara I know that it’s true.
    I could search this world over a thousand times,
    I’ll never find no one like you.

    D You control my heart, Sara.
    With every move that you do.
    Whisper one word to me, Sara
    And I will come running to you

    My heart is in your hands, Sara.
    Sara you know that it’s true.
    You can love me, want me, need me, heed me.
    I will come running to you.

    But if you hurt me, tease me, leave and deceive me,
    I will come running,
    I’ll still come begging,
    Down on my knees back to you.

    A Sara’s a beautiful child,
    I still see perfection when I see her smile
    But I won’t beg her back I refuse,
    Waited too long, withstood too much abuse.

    No more abuse,
    Got no more pride left to lose..and I’m tellin’ you...

    C Sara, Sara I’ve realized
    I know now for sure that it’s true
    You could give me the world and a thousand times,
    I won’t take notice of you.

    Sara, Sara I’ve realized
    I’ve opened my eyes now I see,
    I could search this world just a single time,
    I’ll find a thousand better than you
