"Sarah" lyrics - RAY LAMONTAGNE

When we first met we were kids,
We were wild, we were restless
After a while, I grew coarse,
I grew cold, I grew reckless

I hold this memory,
I've pulled you so close to me,
Whispered "will we always have this?"

Lately it feels like I'm sleeping
And I just can't wake up
Pacing the floor, want to call, but I can't
So I hang up

Sharing a seat on the train
With a lady who's crying
Has ruined her make up

Now I see just how young, how scared I was
My eyes closed tight, throwing punch after punch
At the world

Sarah, is it ever gonna be the same?
Sarah, is it ever gonna be the same?

Said goodbye to all the places I used to go
I said goodbye to all the faces I used to know

Nothing lasts forever

I guess by now I should know
I should know

There ain't a thing I can say
That will ever repair it
And you who had so much advice
And yet couldn't share

Maybe someday we will look back
On this and we'll smile
But right now I can't bear it

Now I see just how young, how scared I was
Eyes closed tight, throwing punch after punch
At the world

Sarah, is it ever gonna be the same?
Sarah, is it ever gonna be the same?
