lyrics

"Sara"

Sara stood up out of bed
it was as high as she could get
but the limit was the sky
way back when she was a kid
but now she's hooked on the casino
cause it's always an open window
that keeps the wind in her sails
while everything in life just fails

she used to be a swan
now that bird is long gone
flown from a property
with no equity

Sara buys a Sunday paper
she likes to read wedding announcements
was he the son of a doctor
well if so
I bet that choice pleased her father
but it's not the sanctity of vows
nor the white picket fence house
but inevitable parting
the ending of the dream
starting

the medication she's on
keeps her moving along
but she's still afraid to sing
afraid that she will be seen
and look like a fool
like she did in '82
when he finally told the truth
"I've found someone new."

and you may think it is pathetic
sadness must be genetic
but if someone shot you through your window
yeah, you may live to feel the wind blow
but will you be able to stand up
walk around or throw your hands up
and if those bullets fly again
what the hell will you do then?
