For Sara

It's a poem of love and blues.

Baby, I know how much I hurt you.

I know because it felt so wrong.

And I see the sadness I’ve caused you.

But, darling, please don’t leave me in so much sorrow.

Don’t make me pay for the rest of my life.

Sara, come home to me this minute.

Come home where my love is waiting.

Just come home and let me love you like before.

 

My heart would stop beating if I never see you anymore.

The last time I kissed you felt like a lifetime ago.

One more day without you here would be too much to bear.

Sara, you know I couldn’t stand it.

And the way my tears are falling,

My blues just can’t hide.

I’ve never felt like this before.

Baby, don’t stay away any longer.

If you do, I would go insane.

 

My words may not be enough to convince you.

I know you’ve heard this before.

And you might not want to hear it again.

But this is all I want to say.

And I’ll say it one more time.

Sara, come home to me this minute.

Come home, for I’m slowly dying.

Just come home and let me love you like before.
