Miss Sarah's a dancer
And she steps quick and light
As 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 and pigtails
In the silk April dawn
She was skipping in circles
On her neighbour's front lawn
And the grey fog was lifting
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
Then you're standing by my grave when the sun goes down
Sarah turn 'round
I'm a coward for leaving
I'm a fool if I stay
I'm a loser in love
'Cause it's simpler that way
And I never will hold her
'Cause she's too good for tears
And the weight of my 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 standing by my grave when 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
'Til we melt in our moment 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 by my grave when the sun goes down
Sarah turn 'round
