While passing by a nightclub in Harlem, the now-fully-radicalized Coalhouse sees a young couple dancing to gentle ragtime music and remembers his own first dance with Sarah.

Sarah Brown Eyes Lyrics

[COALHOUSE, spoken]
What's your name?

[SARAH, spoken]
Sarah.

[COALHOUSE, spoken]
I'm Coalhouse.

[SARAH, spoken]
I know.

[COALHOUSE]
There was no music
In my heart tonight
Melodies kept refusin' to flow
One look at you
Now every note feels right
Comin' out all sweet and slow

[SARAH]
You tell stories
Like your hands play tunes

[COALHOUSE]
Sweetest tune I know
Is Sarah Brown Eyes
Don't be shy, now
Sarah Brown Eyes
Oughta take a chance
The stars are silver notes
Across that sky now
Sarah Brown Eyes
Come, let's dance

[SARAH]
I never heard no music
Quite like yours
Where'd you learn
How to play it that way?
Was I smart
I'd walk right out those doors

[COALHOUSE]
Then I've got to make you stay

[SARAH & COALHOUSE]
Nothing for it but a ragtime tune
On that piano
Sarah Brown Eyes
Don't be shy now
Sarah Brown Eyes
Oughta take a chance
The stars are silver notes
Across that sky now
Sarah Brown Eyes
Come, let's dance

Silver notes
Across that sky now
Sarah Brown Eyes
Come, let's—

[SARAH]
Dance

[COALHOUSE, spoken]
I said no music!

[COALHOUSE FOLLOWER, spoken]
He's here.

[COALHOUSE, spoken]
Bring him in.
