Ragtime the Musical - Sarah Brown Eyes Lyrics

"Sarah Brown Eyes" is a song from musical Ragtime performed by Coalhouse and Audra McDonald (Sarah).

Coalhouse
What's your name?

Sarah
Sarah.

Coalhouse
I'm Coalhouse.

Sarah
I know.

Coalhouse
There was no music
In my heart tonight.
Melodies kept refusin' to flow.
One look at you,
Now every note feels right.
Comin' out all sweet and slow.

Sarah
You tell stories
Like your hands play tunes.

Coalhouse
Sweetest tune I know
Is Sarah Brown Eyes.
Don't be shy, now.
Sarah Brown Eyes
Oughta take a chance.
The stars are
Silver notes
Across that sky now.
Sarah Brown Eyes.
Come, let's dance.

Sarah
I never heard no music
Quite like yours.
Where'd you learn
How to play it that way?
Was I smart,
I'd walk right out those doors.

Coalhouse
Then I've got to make you stay.

Both
Nothin' for it but a ragtime tune
On that piano...
Sarah Brown Eyes,
Don't be shy now.
Sarah Brown Eyes,
Oughta take a chance.
The stars are
Silver notes
Across that sky now.
Sarah Brown Eyes,
Come, let's dance...
Silver notes
Across that sky now.
Sarah Brown Eyes,
Come, let's...

Sarah
Dance...
