Sister

(album: Tight Knit - 2009)

Sister, come back home
Mom and dad are mad at me and
Gone looking for you
Sister, what did you do?
Folks say you're at that age,
Going through some kinda stage, but
It's safe now, the coast is clear
Come back,
I'm the only one here sister
Ooh ooh ooh ooh...
Sister, I need to know,
Why you're fighting this world so
Old enough to dare,
Too young to be treated fairly
Too bold to be told, sister
Oh oh oh ooh... sister, ooh, ooh, ooh...
I heard voices, high
Saw tears but did not ask why
You fought back with pride, sister
Some loves are bound to be
Much more than the world believes,
You locked the door and you left the key behind
I pray that you'll come to
Your senses, and when you do
Hear my plaintive moan
See how these strange minds grow,
Your feeling at home, sister
Ooh ooh ooh oh... sister
Ooh ooh ooh... Sister
Ooh ooh ooh... Sister...
