I HEARD A MELODY DEEP IN MY DREAM LAST NIGHT
THE MUSIC WAS YOU
WEAVING YOUR MYSTERY INTO THE SONGS THEY WRITE
WITH EYES THAT SPOKE BLUE

YOUR SONG WAS LUSH AS THE MIDNIGHT
YOU HELD THE FIRE THERE TILL DAWN
BUT WITH THE FIRST SIGN OF DAYLIGHT YOU WERE GONE,

SING IT SASSY, SING IT SARAH
MY SWEET SARAH, SASSY SARAH
SING IT SASSY, SING IT SARAH

THE FIRE'S STILL BURNING,
YOU KEEP RETURNING
YOU LIVE IN MY DREAM.
YOUR MEMORY'S FLOATIN
YOUR SPELL'S UNBROKEN
SWEET SASSY QUEEN.

YOUR SONG WAS LUSH AS THE MIDNIGHT
YOU HELD THE FIRE THERE TILL DAWN
BUT WITH THE FIRST SIGN OF DAYLIGHT, YOU WERE GONE

SING IT SASSY. SING IT SARAH
OH MY SARAH, SASSY SARAH
SING IT SASSY, SING IT SARAH

LOVINGLY, LAUGHINGLY YOU SHARED YOUR SOUL THAT NIGHT
YOU GAVE ME THE KEY
LYRIC AND MELODY CANNOT BE CHAINED NY FRIEND
YOU GOTTA SET THEN FREE, SET THEM FREE

YOUR SONG WAS LUSH, LUSH AS THE MIDNIGHT
WE HELD THE FIRE THERE TILL DAWN
NOW THAT YOU'RE GONE WITH THE DAYLIGHT
I'LL SING ON.
I'LL SING ON FOR YOU SARAH.
YOU GAVE ME A SONG
WANT TO THANK YOU SARAH

SING IT SASSY SING IT SARAH
I'LL SING ON FOR YOU SARAH
