No one can blame you...
I do...You had no reason...
For walking away...
And leaving me behind...
But too much rejection,
No one's rejected you!
No love injection!
Barely even looked at me, even when I tried...I tried so hard to impress you!

Life can be easy!
Maybe yours is now.
It's not always swell...
I know mine isn't.
Don't tell me truth hurts, little girl!
Don't you think I'd know?
'Cause it hurts like hell!
My truth is my hell...

But down, in the underground,
You do want to come back and see me...right?
You'll find someone true!
I've never even mislead you...I'd never lie. To you.
Down, in the underground,
Please come back, my love!
A land serene, a crystal moon!
Nothing is beautiful here, anymore...

It's only forever!
Just come to me...
Not long at all!
Not too long for a desperate thing to wait...
Lost and lonely,
And I lead the lost and lonely...
That's underground!
All we are is lost and lonely!
Underground!
What use is the Underground to me without you?

Daddy, daddy, get me out of here!
Someone help me out!
I'm underground!
I can't stand it alone!
Heard about a place today!
I need somewhere new!
Nothing never hurts again!
I don't want to feel this anymore!
Daddy, daddy, get me out of here!
Who will help me?
I'm underground!
Please come back to me...
Sister, sister, please-take me down!
I'm asking, I'm begging, I'm pleading!
I'm underground!
I don't want to be alone!
Daddy, daddy, get me out of here
Someone bleeding help me! I can't do this!

Wanna live underground!
Only if it's with you!


Daddy, daddy, please!
I'm trying, I am!


Wanna live underground!
Come, Sarah, live with me forever...
Sister, sister, take me down!
She cared so much for Toby...
Sister, sister, take me down!
Never thought about me...
I've been playing around with this idea for a while. Most Labbies accept that the only songs that happened actually were the ones that Jareth or a cast sang, but I've always loved this song, too much to let it sit. So, I thought, maybe Jareth wrote and sang it when he first saw Sarah and fell in love with her. Now, this is him looking back later after she defeated the Labyrinth, and all the pain and angst! XD

P.S., yes, the title is Jareth's Underground, as in the Underground that is in Jareth's possession, not Jareth IS Underground.
