First there's a pain like whisky,
Burns your heart,
Burns your heart.
Then tehre's a pain like hunger,
Empty as your soul,
Empty as your soul.
When you smiled at me that time on Sara's beach,
I knew you were forever out of reach.
When you dance with the devil you can run but you can't hide,
You can only raise the stakes to stem the tide.

On Sara's beach,
On Sara's beach,
Sara's beach,
On Sara's beach.

Flames turn into embers,
If you damp them down,
If you damp them down.
And pain is all that's remembered,
When you dont make a sound,
No not a sound.
When you cast the stones to catch the seventh wave,
You were only trying to catch the best of these last days,
When you dance with the devil you can run but you can't hide,
You can only raise the stakes to stem the tide.

On Sara's beach,
On Sara's beach,
Sara's beach,
On Sara's beach.
