Lately I’ve found I can’t be unwound I love him and he loves me Somewhere it seems I gave up my dreams to love him now where is me? I’m gardening from the ground up, but I can’t pull this weed I’m gardening from the ground up, but I can’t pull this weed It will come back, it will come back I can’t just move, I can’t just move It will come back, never again It will come back, never again It will come back, never again, never again, never again I’m gardening from the ground up, but I can’t pull this weed I’m gardening from the ground up, but I can’t pull this weed Lately I’ve found I can’t be unwound I love him and he loves me Somewhere it seems I gave up my dreams to love him now where is me?

Writing in the daylight brings me shining words Laughing like the first time brings to life these chords And I want to sing you this song cause I love you And I want to read you my words cause they’re for you And you are the one that I dream, I dream of And I know I’ll be with you somehow, but I’m missing you now Late at night alone I sing as though you’re here Imagining that somewhere you can hear me dear And I want to sing you this song cause I love you And I want to read you my words cause they’re for you And you are the one that I dream, I dream of And I know I’ll be with you somehow, but I’m missing you now Cause you are the one that I wake up and I look for And I think of you and I could just die...happy And I want to sing you this song cause I love you And I want to read you my words cause they’re for you And you are the one that I dream, I dream of And you are the one that I dream, I dream of I know I’ll be with you somehow; I’ll be with you somehow But I’m missing you; I’m missing you now

Wake Up 03:44
It’s daylight and I didn’t even realize cause my curtains never open to the sun It’s daylight but it’s dark inside these walls and I never have to leave when there’s food delivery It’s daylight and the people go outside and they do the things they do while I’m stuck inside this room It’s daylight and I didn’t even realize cause my curtains never open to the sun It’s daylight but it’s dark inside these walls and I never have to leave when there’s food delivery It’s daylight and the people go outside and they do the things they do while I’m stuck inside this room Wake up little girl Stop covering your eyes There’s a life for you to live And a family who loves you and some friends who want to see you smile It’s nighttime the time that I should sleep, but I’m longing for the day I left behind It’s nighttime, but it’s light inside these walls and the TV shows the happiness I want It’s nighttime and I’m sad because I’m tired, but it might be that I’m tired cause I’m sad Wake up little girl Stop covering your eyes There’s a life for you to live And a family who loves you and some friends who want to see you smile Give them what they want little girl, don’t be so afraid It’s just one bad day little girl It’s just one bad day Wake up, wake up, wake up please oh please Wake up, wake up, wake up please Won’t you wake up Won’t you wake up Wake up little girl Stop covering your eyes There’s a life for you to live And a family who loves you and some friends who want to see you smile Give them what they want little girl, don’t be so afraid It’s just one bad day little girl It’s just one bad day

Ooo, ooo There are planks of wood holding up this house And there are stones that pave your way Won’t you visit me? Won’t you step inside? I’ve made some tea it’s your favorite kind and I have all the time Won’t you be with me? Won’t you take my side? Wash me like a baby Touch me softly till I sleep Whisper everything you love about me Oh be my friend, oh be friend my friend always Ooo, ooo There are planks of wood holding up this house And there are stones that pave your way Won’t you visit me? Won’t you step inside? I’ve made some tea it’s your favorite kind I have all the time Won’t you laugh with me? Won’t you stay awhile? Wash me like a baby Touch me softly till I sleep Whisper everything you love about me Oh be my friend Oh be my friend always Oh be my friend always Oh wash me like a baby Touch me softly till I sleep Whisper everything you love about me Oh be my friend, oh be my friend always Oh be my friend always, oh be my friend always

Sarah Elizabeth Foster New York

New York City is now home to Sarah Elizabeth Foster, a 5' 3" striking slice of authenticity. Even in her youth in Houston, Texas, Sarah could spot the diamonds in the rough.
