I'm i to this for some reason...

Sara:

I had met my match
he was singing, and undoing the laces, the laces..

and he was just like a great dark wing

and dreaming and the wind became crazy

and lastly,
all I ever wanted was to know that you were dreaming..

SOTM:

One's in my sgnature: We listen to their voices, ignoring our own voice

the opening:

intense silence as she walks in the room
her black robes trailing sister of the moon

Dreaming...and the wind became...crazy...there's a heartbeat, and it never really died.

AND

I'd like to wrap her in velvet, does anyone know her name

"There's a heartbeat and it never really died." -- no contest there for me :nod:

and

"So we make our choices when there is no choice."

In Sara, you've already mentioned all of them.

In Sisters Of THe Moon, all the first verse:
"Intense silence
As she walked in the room
Her black robes trailing
Sister of the moon
And a black widow spider makes
More sound than she
And black moons in those eyes of hers
Made more sense to me
Heavy persuasion
It was hard to breathe
She was dark at the top of the stairs
And she called to me"

and:
"The people, they love her
And still they are the most cruel"

The perfect way to describe any fandom in two lines, IMO.

OMG! How could I forget that line?!?!?!? I <3 it so.....
Me, too. I love it, but i had to put it also cause i couldn't really think of a line from Sara i loved, cause i don't love Sara, i just like it. just barely.
However, I did also just edit my post to put in the correct word to SOTM :rolleyes:

SARA:

"Wait a minute, baby
Stay with me awhile
Said you'd give me light
But you never told me 'bout the fire"

I can so relate to that part...

SISTERS OF THE MOON:

Okay, everyone *loves* this song, and I like it, but I don't think it blows me away the way it seems to do others.

So, nothing really resonates with me, lyrically...

I guess it's the obvious choice, but my number one pick from "Sara" is, "All I ever wanted was to know that you were dreaming."

Heartwrenching.

I also love, "I'd stay home at night... all the time... I'd go anywhere... anywhere... anywhere.... Ask me and I'm there."

And from "Sisters Of The Moon"... "the people say they love her, but still they're the most cruel."

Anyone around here ever feel a twinge of guilt when they hear that line? ;) :laugh:

Of course: "All I ever wanted was to know that you were dreaming" but I also like on the Tusk doc when just cuts the line to "All I ever wanted was to knooooooooooooooooooow!"

Also, "Dreaming, and the wind became crazy, as you reached up gently...and listen for that crazy wind, you know it will make you smile"

From Sisters: "And when the people who gather around you, do you remember that they were the most cruel" -- Kind of reminds me of us sometimes. :lol:

"I think I have met my match, he was sinnngggiinn and undoing...and undoing...the laces" (love that one so much)

"and the starling flew for days"

"I'd go anywhere, anywhere, anywhere, just ask me and I'm there" (another great one)

From Sisters:

"I'd like to wrap her in velvet, does anyone even know her name???!!!???"

"and those black moons in those eyes of hers made more sense to me"

I know this probably doesn't count, but everything about Sara is perfect in my book. I love the music, expecially John's bass and the lyrics are the best.
And my first born child will be named Sara. :nod:

As for SOTM: "Heavy persuasion, it was hard to breathe..."
"And the people gather around her, why are they so cruel?"

"Sara"
"I think I had met my match..."

"Hold on
The night is coming and the starling
flew for days..."

"SOTM"
"Some call her sister of the moon
Some say illusions are her game
Wrap her in velvet
Does anyone, ah, know her name"

Really, some of her best lyrics, I think.

I'm just going to imagine Sara isn't part of this thread. :P

But for Sister Of The Moon, I dig when she busted out Cecelia during some live show:

Where have the white birds flown?
Have they flown so very far?
No, they're just asleep
Therein, therein!

Good lyric choices for "Sara," Justin. Gosh, I just love that song with all of my heart, too. :)

So We make our choices
When there is no choice
We Listen to their voices... ignoring our own voice

It don't get no better.

SOTM:
"Intense Silence as she walked in the room
Her black robe trailing, sister of the moon
And a black widow spider makes
More sound than she
And black moons in those eyes of hers made more sense to me."

Sara:
"Hold on, the night is coming and the starling flew for days."

I LOVE that line!
