lyrics

Wrecked like a ship, broken like a dream
Empty as the net of a desperate hockey team when you left
I wrote a lot of words, I hummed a lot of tunes
I threw ‘em all out ‘cause they were all for you, now you’re gone
And it’s a clear and quiet dawn

Your lies have long since passed away
My eyes have seen the light of day
Sweet Sarah, Sweet Sarah
Your lies have long since passed away
My eyes have seen the light of day
Sweet Sarah, Sweet Sarah
You took me down a notch

I have to admit you star in all my dreams
Dramas I direct from the safety of sleep, I’m impressed
With this evening’s party dress
Your bright eyes shine through a Coca-Cola haze
Our lips intertwine and I’m shot wide awake to recall
I don’t love you at all

Your lies have long since passed away
My eyes have seen the light of day
Sweet Sarah, Sweet Sarah
Your lies have long since passed away
My eyes have seen the light of day
Sweet Sarah, Sweet Sarah
You took me down a notch

Your lies have long since passed away
My eyes have seen the light of day
Sweet Sarah, Sweet Sarah
Your lies have long since passed away
My eyes have seen the light of day
Sweet Sarah, Sweet Sarah
You took me down a notch
