Sarah y yo mi mejor amiga
Me and Sarah my best friend
Medias rayadas y alas de hadas
Stripy tights and fairy wings
(Tan seguro como seguro puede ser)
(As safe as safe can be)

Nos bebimos la ginebra que habíamos colado
We drank the gin we'd snuck in
Bailó a Ben Folds Five
Danced to Ben Folds Five
Me di la vuelta a Sarah
I turned around to Sarah
No podía verla en ningún lado
Couldn't see her anywhere
(Tan seguro como seguro puede ser)
(As safe as safe can be)

Oh, Sarah
Oh, Sarah
No quise decepcionarte
I didn't mean to let you down
Pero me dejaste sola, Sarah
But you left me on my own, Sarah
¿Por qué no gritaste?
Why didn't you scream?

Fui a todas las etapas
I went to all the stages
Y a la tribuna de San Juan
And to the St John's stand
El hombre dijo: Acabas de echarla de menos
The man said: You just missed her
Quédate, tal vez vuelva otra vez
Stay, maybe she'll come back again
Me senté y vi a las multitudes
I sat and watched the crowds

Mi padre vino a medianoche
My father came at midnight
Buscamos hasta las cuatro y media
We searched til half past four
Estaba medio histérica
I was half hysterical
Mi padre no estaba seguro
My father wasn't sure
Llamó a la policía
He called for the police

Oh, Sarah
Oh, Sarah
No quise decepcionarte
I didn't mean to let you down
Pero me dejaste sola, Sarah
But you left me on my own, Sarah
¿Por qué no gritaste?
Why didn't you scream?
¿Por qué no gritaste, Sarah?
Why didn't you shout, Sarah?

Odio que te defraudé
I hate it that I let you down
Pero me dejaste sola, Sarah
But you left me on my own, Sarah
¿Por qué no gritaste?
Why didn't you scream?
¿Por qué no gritaste?
Why didn't you shout?
¿Por qué no gritaste?
Why didn't you shout?

Al día siguiente el sargento
The next day the sergeant
Encontró su vestido azul en un arroyo
Found her blue dress in a creek
Sus padres estaban tan enojados
Her parents were so angry
Me echaron la culpa
They put the blame on me

Y luego una quincena más tarde
And then a fortnight later
Sarah llamó a su puerta
Sarah knocked upon their door
Su madre le preguntó: ¿Dónde has estado?
Her mother asked her: Where've you been?
Y ella dijo: No lo sé
And she said: I don't know

No lo sé
I don't know
No estoy seguro
I'm not sure
No estoy seguro
I'm not sure
No recuerdo nada en absoluto
I can't remember anything at all

Oh, Sarah
Oh, Sarah
No quise decepcionarte
I didn't mean to let you down
Pero me dejaste sola, Sarah
But you left me on my own, Sarah
¿Por qué no gritaste?
Why didn't you scream?
¿Por qué no gritaste, Sarah?
Why didn't you shout, Sarah?

Odio que te defraudé
I hate it that I let you down
Pero me dejaste sola, Sarah
But you left me on my own, Sarah
¿Por qué no gritaste?
Why didn't you scream?
¿Por qué no gritaste?
Why didn't you shout?
