"Sweet Sarah" lyrics - CYNTHIA ERIVO

Sarah's an honest person
She wouldn't ask you for a thing
Sarah, she's always searching
Looking for who she is

Together feels so far away
That's what they're all saying
Forever it goes on and on
Feels like she won't make it

[Chorus:]
Sweet Sarah has been home so long she's lost the will to move
I can't blame her, as the music plays I can only feel the gloom
Oh I only feel the gloom

Picture of all that's perfect
Sarah was made for stars at night
She gave the world warmth and laughter
Bright as the moon that hugs the night

It seems she's hiding
Eclipse that stole the light
She needs reminding
Of what's behind her eyes

[Chorus:]
Sweet Sarah has been home so long she's lost the will to move
I can't blame her, as the music plays I can only feel the gloom
Oh I only feel the gloom

[Bridge:]
If only she knew she carried the sun inside her hands
Like drops of pure heaven, they slip through her fingers to the sand
What I wouldn't give to be the vessel I'd catch them before they land
I'd give them back to her, 'cause I understand

[Chorus:]
Sweet Sarah has been home so long she's lost the will to move
I can't blame her, as the music plays I can only feel the gloom
Oh I only feel the gloom
Sweet Sarah
Sweet Sarah
Sweet Sarah
Mmm
