Sara Jane

Sarah Jane

Tis' well I do remember, our childhood years together
When every day, we used to play in sunshine or in rain
But little did I know then, my heart it would be broken
With only just a hurting word from you, Sara Jane

From when she was a baby, I watched her grow into a lady
And at sixteen, she was the fairest maiden ever seen
It would lift your heart to see her; she was pretty as a flower
With eyes of blue, it's easy loving you, Sarah Jane

Through meadow fields in summer, 'tis often we would wonder
We'd reminisce and hug and kiss, where once we used to play
But the love that Sarah gave me, now it's only just a memory
A memory is all I have of you, Sara Jane

It was in the cold of winter; sure the snow lay on the heather
My love took ill, and caught a chill, and now she's in the clay
Though she's no longer with me, there's our little girl so pretty
With eyes of blue, just like you, Sara Jane
