Goodnight, Sarah-Jane Lyrics by Talis Kimberley

2011

I shall take my daughter out tonight
The moon's past full but the sky's still bright
And we'll say: Goodnight, Sarah Jane
And I'll talk about the women we've been
I was an awkward girl, you were a star on-screen for me
Goodnight, Sarah Jane
And you wouldn't stay quiet and hold your tongue
Nor stay where you were put
No token girl to be talked down to
Hanging 'round underfoot
And against all odds you came back, carrying
A series of your own
You inspired me at my daughter's age
And again, as a woman grown...
I shall hope that time's a gentle place
For a well-loved woman of charm and grace —
That's you. Goodnight, Sarah Jane
You were smart and strong and you made us proud
And I'm crying now, but I'll say it aloud anyway:
Goodnight Sarah Jane...
Goodnight Sarah Jane...
With a blue box missing a few spare parts
We’re carrying you, in all of our hearts now
[whispered:] Rest well
So I shall take my daughter out tonight
I'll tell her of Cady Coleman's flight
And you — and say, goodnight Sarah Jane
And we'll both say: goodnight Sarah Jane...
Goodnight, Sarah Jane...
