Jonah

Breathe

She's a lady you'll remember

Wrapped in mystery and style

She's just one of love's pretenders

On her heart you can't rely



When she's dressed to kill, have you the strength of will, to turn away

Don't you hunger boy, for she's no toy, or soon you'll pay...



Sarah, Sarah, my misfortune never looked so sweet

Just like Jonah, You bring me stormy seas with your deceit.



Now her charm just overwhelms me

Is my heart already sold!

I think of what my father told me

All that glitters is not gold



I'm in a cold, cold sweat and the more I fret, my fever will rise

It's a 'No Go Slow', I must leave this show before I'm her prize.



Sarah, Sarah, my misfortune never looked so sweet

Just like Jonah, you bring me stormy seas with your deceit.



You know I should be wise, I've seen through her disguise

She'll bring me stormy seas just like Jonah

You know I'm hooked on dreams, on all that may have been

She'll bring me stormy seas, just like Jonah.



Sarah, Sarah, my misfortune never looked so sweet

Just like Jonah, you bring me stormy seas with your deceit.



Jonah, Jonah, just like Jonah

Jonah, Jonah, just like Jonah.



Jonah tried to sail away,

Ah, ah, Jonah

Catch that boat to a brighter day, remember Jonah

Don't mock the Lord, don't take his word in vain

For Sarah, judgement day will come again.



Jonah rode those stormy seas, ah, ah, Jonah

For the Lord above he would not please, remember Jonah.



Jonah was swallowed by the whale, ah, ah, Jonah

He was soon to pray when he knew he'd failed.
