"Sara's Beach" lyrics

First there's a pain like whisky
Burns your heart
Burns your heart
Then there's a pain like hunger
Empty as your soul
Empty as your soul

When you smiled at me that time on Sara's beach
I knew you were forever out of reach
When you dance with the devil you can run but you can't hide
You can only raise the stakes to stem the tide

On Sara's beach
On Sara's beach
Sara's beach
On Sara's beach

Flames turn into embers
If you damp them down
If you damp them down
And pain is all that's remembered
When you don't make a sound
No not a sound

When you cast the stones to catch the seventh wave
You were only trying to catch the best of these last days
When you dance with the devil you can run but you can't hide
You can only raise the stakes to stem the tide

On Sara's beach
On Sara's beach
Sara's beach
On Sara's beach
