Don't know what you were thinking 

when you looked at me and smiled. 

Should've seen this boat sinking 

but my heart was beating wild. 

Don't know what I was doing 

it's not like I'm unattached. 

When you asked me for my number should've 

just shook my head and laughed. 



Say a prayer for me Sara ‘cause I've got it good 

And if I could I would go back in time 

And I would spare you this fickle heart of mine 



Don't know what you were thinking 

When you asked me for a dance 

Should've just turned my back on your 

Figments of fine romance 

Can't say what kept me talking 

When I should've held my peace 

Could've just kept on walking 

Pheonix upon her knees now 



Say a prayer for me Sara ‘cause I've got it good 

And if I could I would go back in time 

And I would spare you this fickle heart of mine. 



Tragedy makes you stronger 

Poetry breaks it down 

Wisdom was a surprise I never 

Counted on from this town 

You to me speak in rhythms 

And I hear your music loud 

Oceans of necessity - bandaging up my doubt 



Don't know what you were thinking 

when you looked at me and smiled. 

Should've seen this boat sinking 

but my heart was beating wild. 

Don't know what I was doing 

it's not like I'm unattached. 

When you asked me for my number should've 

just shook my head and laughed 



Say a prayer for me Sara ‘cause I've got it bad 

And if I had the chance I would 

And I would spare you this fickle heart of mine
