Sara made the big time
Just the other night
She never lost her beauty
She somehow lost her sight
I knew that we were falling
We didn't stand a chance
Oh, why did you go?
I stood and watched it happen
There was nothin' I could say
I didn't have the right to
I'm runnin' the same race
If you bet upon the dark horse
Someday you're gonna pay
Oh, it should've been me
It was always, "One more time
Then I'll leave it all behind"
I'm scared of bein' alone
Oh, Sara, come back to me
Spread your wings and fly away
You were too tired to run
You were too scared to stay
Couldn't make it through another day
Whoa, Sara, goodbye
Sara was my savior
She pulled me off the street
In the day, she was my shelter
In the night, she was my heat
Through all the nights of hell
She never let me go
Why, why was it you?
Sara was a lover
I always counted on
A candle in the darkness
The calm inside the storm
And when I reached to touch her
I turned and she was gone
Oh, why did you go?
It was always, "One more time
Then I'll leave it all behind"
I'm scared of bein' alone
Oh, Sara, come back to me
Spread your wings and fly away
You were too tired to run
You were too scared to stay
Couldn't make it through another day, oh
There was somethin' about her
Somethin' money never buys
Was a song in her laughter
There was magic in her eyes
We were good together
We could've made it if we tried
But you can't hold back an angel
An angel when it's time to fly
(Spread your wings and fly away)
(Ooh, ooh)
You were too tired to run
You were too scared to stay
Couldn't make it through another day, oh
(Ooh, Sara, goodbye, ooh)
Spread your wings and fly away
(Ooh, ooh)
Too tired to run
You were too scared to stay
Couldn't make it through another day, oh
(Sara, goodbye)
Sara, goodbye
Spread your wings
(Ooh, ooh)
Spread your wings and fly away, oh
(Couldn't make it through another day)
(Ooh, Sara, goodbye)
(Spread your wings and fly away)
You were too tired to run
(Ooh, ooh)
You were too scared to stay, oh
(Couldn't make it through another day)
(Ooh, Sara, goodbye)
(Spread your wings and fly away)
(Ooh, ooh)
(Couldn't make it through another day)
(Ooh, Sara, goodbye)
(Ooh, ooh)
(Ooh, Sara, goodbye)
(Ooh, ooh)
(Ooh, Sara, goodbye)
(Spread your wings and fly away)
(Ooh, ooh)
(Couldn't make it through another day)
(Ooh, Sara, goodbye)
(Spread your wings and fly away)
