[Verse 1]
Saw her across a crowded room
And she looked so good
Memories came rushing into my head, mmm
There was a sparkle in her eyes
Was it for me
Or just my imagination running wild? Oh, yeah...

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I see the more things change
The more they stay the same
Thought I was past the pain
But one thought of you (thought of you)
And it's back again

[Chorus]
Sarah, Sarah
What happened to you and I? Sarah...
Sarah, Sarah
How did the fire die? Sarah...

[Verse 2]
This time I said I would be strong
Though emotions rush in
Swore that I wouldn't fall apart, no way
[Pre-Chorus 2]
How could we watch our dreams
Crumble into dust? Baby...
There's so much more life has in store (in store)
For the two of us

[Chorus]
Sarah, Sarah
What happened to you and I? Sarah...
(Sarah, Sarah)
Oooh, how did the fire die? Sarah...

Yeah, girl...

[Bridge]
I must admit, baby
That love never died (love never died)
'Cause deep in my heart, girl
A bit of you still survived

[Sax Solo]

[Pre-Chorus 2]
How could we watch our dreams
Crumble into dust, girl (ooh)
There's so much more life has in store (in store)
For the two of us
[Chorus]
(Sarah, Sarah)
Oooh, what happened to you and I? (Sarah)
Tell me, tell me... tell me, baby!
Sarah, Sarah
How did the fire die, baby? (Sarah)

[Fade out]
Yeah, yeah
I'm crying out for you
Said I love you, baby
I'm strong out on you, baby
Girl, don't walk away
Don't turn away
I need you, honey
