Sara Smile [Live/Greatest]
Hall And Oates · Greatest Hits Live [2001]
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
saraa smile
won't you smile a while for me
if you feel like leaving you know you can go
but why don't you stay until tomorrow?
and if you want to be free, all you have 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
saraa smile
won't you smile a while for me
Sara Smile [Live/Greatest]
Sara Smile remains one of the most enduring tracks in the Hall and Oates catalogue, originally released in 1975. The song serves as a tender tribute to Sara Allen, the artist's wife at the time, and stands as a defining example of their early soft-rock sound. This live recording from the 2001 Greatest Hits Live album captures the duo's dynamic stage presence, showcasing the polished harmonies and rhythmic precision that characterized their performances during that era. While the studio version is widely celebrated for its smooth production, this live rendition highlights the band's ability to connect with audiences through emotional delivery. As a staple of their discography, the track exemplifies the songwriting partnership that propelled them to international fame, bridging the gap between pop sensibilities and soulful rock instrumentation.
