Murder Ballad: A New Musical (World Premiere Cast Recording)
Sara
She's gonna walk through that door
The one she slammed ten years before
And I won't hesitate
It's all so long ago and late
The one who got away
Things got turned around
Fucked-up mistakes that broke us down
Sara said "I know you Tom,
Knew I was doubting all along"
The one who got away
Didn't even try to make her stay
Sara
Say yes
Sara
You erase the rest
Tom and Narrator:
Man don't be a fool
She's not coming back to you
She's just stopping by
One quick drink "Hello, Goodbye"
The one who got away
Didn't even try to make her stay
But Sara
Say yes
Sara
You erase them
Sara
Say yes
Sara
You erase them
I had a dream of us in our sixties
Was a cold winter night in New York City
Walkin' down a cobblestone street
Empty, but you were holding my hand
Smiling at me and
Tom, Sara, and Narrator:
Snow was fallin' down
And covering the ground
And Sara
there's another but she's not you
Sara
Girl, I need you
Sara
Come on, say yes
Sara
You erase the rest
You erase the rest
And I can hope, and want, and dream
But she's taken and it's not going to be
The one she slammed ten years before
And I won't hesitate
It's all so long ago and late
The one who got away
Things got turned around
Fucked-up mistakes that broke us down
Sara said "I know you Tom,
Knew I was doubting all along"
The one who got away
Didn't even try to make her stay
Sara
Say yes
Sara
You erase the rest
Tom and Narrator:
Man don't be a fool
She's not coming back to you
She's just stopping by
One quick drink "Hello, Goodbye"
The one who got away
Didn't even try to make her stay
But Sara
Say yes
Sara
You erase them
Sara
Say yes
Sara
You erase them
I had a dream of us in our sixties
Was a cold winter night in New York City
Walkin' down a cobblestone street
Empty, but you were holding my hand
Smiling at me and
Tom, Sara, and Narrator:
Snow was fallin' down
And covering the ground
And Sara
there's another but she's not you
Sara
Girl, I need you
Sara
Come on, say yes
Sara
You erase the rest
You erase the rest
And I can hope, and want, and dream
But she's taken and it's not going to be
