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

Drowning in the sea of love
Where everyone would love to drown
But now it's gone
It doesn't matter what for
When you build your house
Then call me home

And he was just like
A great dark wing
Within the wings of a storm
I think I had met my match
he was singing and undoing
And undoing, ooh, the laces
Undoing the laces

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 is coming
And the starling flew for days
I'd stay at home at night all the time
I'd go anywhere, anywhere, anywhere
Ask me and I'm there, yeah, ask me
And I'm there because I care

In the sea of love
Where everyone would love to drown
But now it's gone
They say it doesn't matter any more
If you build your house
Then please call me

Oh, Sara, you're the poet in my heart
Never change, and don't you ever stop
Now it's gone, no
It doesn't matter any more
When you build your house
I'll come by

Ahh, Sara, ahh
Ahh, Sara, ahh
Ahh, Sara, ahh

All I ever wanted
Was to know that you were dreaming
There's a heartbeat
And it never really died
