“Sarah Come Home” is the fourth track off Allie X’s sophomore album Cape God. It’s about a friend who has ran away and disappeared. Allie X has said that it hasn’t actually happened to her, but she put her feelings for her friends in the song.
[Verse 1]
You can't change her, I never tried to
I wanna save her, but what can I do?
[Pre-Chorus]
Follow the train tracks into the next town
Look for a bookstore, somewhere to sit down
I know you've got places that you run away to
Leave little traces so I can find you, ha, ha
[Chorus]
I left a light on for you
Sarah, won't you come home?
I'll just hold my breath 'til you hold me again
I'm talking to you so you know you're never alone
I'll just hold my breath 'til there's nothing left
[Post-Chorus]
So come home
Come home
So come home
Come home
[Verse 2]
I know you told me, I didn't believe it
For that, I'm sorry, 'cause now I see it, I see it
[Pre-Chorus]
Follow the train tracks into the next town
Look for a bookstore, somewhere to sit down
I know you've got places that you run away to
Leave little traces so I can find you, ha, ha
[Chorus]
I left a light on for you
Sarah, won't you come home?
I'll just hold my breath 'til you hold me again
I'm talking to you so you know you're never alone
I'll just hold my breath 'til there's nothing left
[Post-Chorus]
So come home
Come home
So come home
Come home
[Bridge]
I left a light on for you
Sarah, won't you come home? (Come home)
I'll just hold my breath 'til you hold me again (Come home)
I'm talking to you so you know you're never alone (Come home)
I'll just hold my breath 'til there's nothing left, ooh
[Chorus]
I left a light on for you
Sarah, won't you come home?
I'll just hold my breath 'til you hold me again
I'm talking to you so you know you're never alone
I'll just hold my breath 'til there's nothing left
[Post-Chorus]
So come home (So come home)
Come home
So come home (So come home)
Come home
[Outro]
Sarah, come home
Sarah, come home

There’s a songwriter, Sarah Hudson, who’s known for writing ‘Dark Horse’ for Katy Perry.
