Sarah

1997, Livid Festival
 Me and Sarah my best friend
 Stripy tights and fairy wings
 As safe as safe can be
 We drank the gin we'd snuck in
 Danced to Ben Folds Five
 I turned around to Sarah
 Couldn't see her anywhere
 As safe as safe can be
 Oh Sarah, I didn't mean to let you down
 But you left me on my own, Sarah
 Why didn't you scream?
 I went to all the stages
 And to the St. John's stand
 The man said "You just missed her
 Stay - maybe she'll come back again"
 I sat and watched the crowds
 My father came at midnight
 We searched til half-past four
 I was half hysterical
 My father wasn't sure
 He called for the police
 Oh Sarah, I didn't mean to let you down
 But you left me on my own, Sarah
 Why didn't you scream? Why didn't you shout?
 Sarah, I hate it that I let you down
 But you left me on my own, Sarah
 Why didn't you scream? Why didn't you shout?
 Why didn't you shout?
 The next day the sergeant
 Found her blue dress in the creek
 Her parents were so angry
 They put the blame on me
 Then a fortnight later
 Sarah knocked upon their door
 Her mother asked her "Where've you been?"
 And she said
 "I don't know, I don't know, I'm not sure.
 I'm not sure, I can't remember anything at all."
 Oh Sarah, I didn't mean to let you down
 But you left me on my own, Sarah
 Why didn't you scream? Why didn't you shout?
 Sarah, I hate it that I let you down
 But you left me on my own, Sarah
 Why didn't you scream? Why didn't you shout?
