Miss Sarah's a dancer And she steps quick and light When she spins through my dreams Like a thistle each night And she touches my shoulder And she smiles in my face But she don't guess the power of her grace She was barefoot in pigtails In the silk april dawn She was skippin' in circles On the neighbor's front lawn And the grey fog was liftin' When she blew me a kiss And a woman stepped out Of the mist Sarah turn 'round You're a fine young goddess It's a sweet morning in may Sarah turn 'round It's my indian summer And the last light of my day Sarah turn 'round And I've grown older Sarah turn 'round And I've gone grey And you're standin by my grave And the sun goes down Sarah turn 'round I'm a coward for leavin' I'm a fool if I stay I'm a loser in love 'cause it's simpler that way And I never would hold her 'cause she's too good for tears Or the weight of these many years Sarah turn 'round You're a fine young goddess It's a sweet morning in may Sarah turn 'round It's my indian summer And the last light of my day Sarah turn 'round And I've grown older Sarah turn 'round And I've gone grey Then you're standin by my grave And the sun goes down Sarah turn 'round They will tell you it's gospel But they won't tell you why How love conquers all In the sweet by-and-by So we flutter like snowflakes And we twirl in the air And we melt in our moments of prayer Sarah turn 'round You're a fine young goddess It's a sweet morning in may Sarah turn 'round It's my indian summer And the last light of my day Sarah turn 'round And I've grown older Sarah turn 'round And I've gone grey ... then you're standing all alone And the sun goes down Sarah turn 'round
