Baby hair with a woman's eyes

I can feel you watching in the night

All alone with me, we're waiting for the sunlight



When I feel cold you warm me

And when I feel that I can't go on you come and hold me

And it's you and me forever



Sara smile

Why don't you smile awhile for me

Sara smile

Why don't you smile awhile for me



If you feel like leaving you know you can go

But why don't you stay until tomorrow

If you want be be free, you know

All you got to do is say so



When you feel cold I will warm you baby

When you feel you can't go on I'll hold you

It's you and me forever

Original version:



Baby hair with a woman's eyes

I can feel you watching in the night

All alone with me and we're waiting for the sunlight



When I feel cold you warm me

When I feel I can't go on you come and hold me

It's you and me forever



Sara smile

Won't you smile awhile for me



If you feel like leaving you know you can go

But why don't you stay until tomorrow

If you want be be free, you know

All you got to do is say so



When you feel cold I'll warm you

And when you feel you can't go on I'll come and hold you

It's you and me forever
