Sighing For Sarah Sighing for Sarah once again and every now and then I lose myself in misty visions of filling her heart with joy oh poor smitten little boy you've fallen in love she's just what you've been dreaming of once more it begins sighing for Sarah once again Dreaming in decibels 3,2,1 her eyes like midnight suns she brings me a smile sweetly then I awaken to ever alone shivering to the bone I'm so madly in love she's just what I've been dreaming of once more it begins dreaming of Sarah once again And every time she walks this way my heart goes boom and every time she looks my way I'm shot to the moon yeah I sigh because I found what I was looking for but I am much too shy never felt quite like this before Longing for love all the time my heartbeat stops on a dime when I see her eyes glow amber dark, pretty and wise can she see through my disguise and into my inner war she's just what I've been longing for once more my heart opens longing for Sarah once again 'Cause every time she smiles at me I feel high, so high and every time I find myself sighing alone in the night yeah I'm sighing just for Sarah and I wonder what we could be Cupid, send her love care of this one who just longs to be living for Sarah and dreaming a dream to share and softly touching her heart with care yes I know that in all this world oh girl I only want to be there with you "Hey, it's me, I'm dynamite and I don't know why" -- Van Morrison, 'Sweet Thing' |

so, I took some liberties here and just slipped a "susan" in where there was a "sarah" just so I could feel it, just for a breath... Thank you. Your words filled me with a bittersweet inner smile. "too bad ignorance isn't painful" |

Beautifully expressed yearning, burning desire for Sarah ~ and ever so sweet and tender. May she return the love that you so generously offer! (Lucky girl!) EA |

I had to chuckle at Susan's reply. But you have some nice lines in here, Zach, though I felt the "heart goes boom" line to be quite weak. Good to read you again. |

This is a love song, for sure! Now, if you were to sing it to her, Wow! |

It is a song. Nearly everything I write that rhymes is a song. There's just no melody, no music, yet. Still, I'm much too shy to sing it to her. Like Ronnie Van Zandt once said, "all I can do is write about it". Many thanks to everyone for their kind comments. "Hey, it's me, I'm dynamite and I don't know why" -- Van Morrison, 'Sweet Thing' |
