Wait a minute baby,
Stay with me awhile...
Said you'd give me light
But you never told me about the fire.

Drownin', in the sea of love
Where everyone would love to drown.
But now it's gone, it doesn't matter what for.
So when you build your house, then call me home.

Oooooooo..
And it was just like a great dark wind
Within the wings of a storm.
I think I had met my match.
He was singin'
And undoing and undoing
Oooooooo, the laces, undoing the laces.

He said "Sara, you're the poet in my heart,
Never change, never stop..."
But now it's gone, it doesn't matter what for,
But when you build your house, then call me home.

Hold on, the night [bad word] 
And the starling flew for days.
I'd stay home at night all the time,
I go anywhere - anywhere - anyway...

Ask me and I'm there, yeah,
Ask me and I'm there, 'cause I care.
In the sea of love, where every woman would love to drown.
But now it's gone, they say it doesn't matter anymore.
If you build your house, then please call me home.

"Sara, you're the poet in my heart,
Never change, and don’t you ever stop..."
But now it's gone; no, it doesn't matter anymore.
When you build your house, [bad word] by.

Ooooooooo, Sara
Ahhhhhhh, Oooooooo

Oh...Oooooooo, Sara, baby
There was a heartbeat and it never really died,
Yes it never really died.
Oh will you swallow your pride?

All I ever wanted was to know that you were dreaming...
