Me and Sarah Jane

The fires are burning in another land

Don't start counting, don't start counting

Colder and colder, the ice is moving closer

And it gets me down

Going round and round

And down the same old track

Pack on my back, going swiftly nowhere

Heart in my ear beating like a drum

Where will you go?

All by yourself

(Hah, hah, hah, hah, hah, hah)

And now I'm standing on the corner

Waiting in the rain

But then in sunlight without warning

I invent a name

Me and Sarah Jane

We had a special thing going

Me and Sarah Jane

It was a time of love and laughter

It wouldn't come again

We had our round of joy, but after

Then began the pain

Me and Sarah Jane

We had a special thing going

Me and Sarah Jane (Sarah Jane)

(Ahh) Searching for a clue

Traces on the sand

First, I'm flying, going round, round, round

Then, I'm sliding, going down, down, down

Doesn't matter where I start, I always end up

Crawling through those same old crowded rooms

Me and Sarah Jane, we had it coming, all the pain

Walkin' down the streets and finding nothing is the same

And now the city lights are dimming one by one

It costs too much money to keep them on

Me and Sarah Jane, in silence, walk along the shore

Tears of joy and mocking laughter, words lost in the wind

The tide was rising, but there we stayed

We had no fear of dying, we weren't afraid
