Emily Sparks Downtown Cafe
I saw her mother this morning
At the downtown cafe
Staring blankly Down in mourning
Had her cup of gourmet coffee
And she asked me What her baby'd been missing
And I shake my head
Can't think of nothing
But candy wrappers
Tucked into the folds of the bed
And how I don't see them around
Since Sarah left town
-Downtown café

Now people always think they know you
And they're almost always wrong
Tried to bend you till they broke you
So she moved along
And sometimes I see them around
Since Sarah left town
Trying to track her down
Sarah, Sarah
Sarah, Sarah
-Downtown café
She's chasing her soul
Not running away
If you'd just let her go
She'll know the way
And I saw her mother this morning
She looked me in the eye
She said: “Dyou know sometimes,
I think I hear her laughing
And all I can do is cry”
And it's a funny thing about people
How everyone has a song
And he sings it every moment
But we don't hear it until he's gone
And sometimes I see them around
Since Sarah left town
They're humming with heads hanging down
Sarah, Sarah
Sarah, Sarah
-Downtown café
Over...
