Sister

(альбом: Etc. - 2002)

Seated by the wing
A little face inside a ring
Plane came in late
Run up the ramp into my arms, my arms

You're only thirteen
Wide-eyed and nervous, just like me
Don't grow too fast
There's a lot of little things to see, you see

It makes me crazy
To see you twice as big this time
I'm so happy
Just to catch you on your climb

Sister of mine
You live too far away now
Seems such a shame
To only know your name

Clear blue of eye
Smile hides a precious underbite
Angel in disguise
I've got you in my thoughts each night, tonight

Does it make me crazy
To worry about your bare walls?
Looks so vacant
Are you sleeping there at all?

Sister of mine
You live too far away now
Seems such a shame
To only know your name, name name

She thinks it's stupid
That we get paid to jump around
It's what I live for
I swear I'll never touch the ground

Sister of mine
You live too far away now
Seems such a shame
To only know your name, name name
Sister of mine
I'll meet you past halfway now
Throw me a line
Attach a cup and whisper, "Hey, hey hey."
