I always have a reason, if you have to ask
But it's not really reason to claw you back
You have slept on all your words
Now they taste so sour
Didn't I, didn't I, warn you?
Didn't I, didn't I, warn you?
I wish you were a stranger with an empty face
A funny little Sarah with a year to waste
I would wrap you up in silk and yarns of gold
I would never let you wander when you were bored
I would sleep on all your words, and take them as my own
Didn't I, didn't I, warn you?
Didn't I, didn't I, warn you?
So don't come running down that hill
Cause I'll be standing so very still
Oh it takes a long time, such a long time
Didn't I, didn't I, warn you?
Didn't I, didn't I, warn you?
But it's not really reason to claw you back
You have slept on all your words
Now they taste so sour
Didn't I, didn't I, warn you?
Didn't I, didn't I, warn you?
I wish you were a stranger with an empty face
A funny little Sarah with a year to waste
I would wrap you up in silk and yarns of gold
I would never let you wander when you were bored
I would sleep on all your words, and take them as my own
Didn't I, didn't I, warn you?
Didn't I, didn't I, warn you?
So don't come running down that hill
Cause I'll be standing so very still
Oh it takes a long time, such a long time
Didn't I, didn't I, warn you?
Didn't I, didn't I, warn you?
