Virginia Wing – A Sister lyrics
Each way we can speak of pain
We make it less, at least more contained
Watched it all with calm despair
Came as close as I could bear
Kept you near so we could hold
And hope that more would then follow
You and I
Carved our name into a larch
To keep the time
Just as a good guest
Who knows when to depart
The table of life
Keep it together
Sisters with a broken heart
Just keep it together
We fall with a broken branch
Because we are together
Every step and fatal path
Just keep it together
Hoping only to advance
I want you to know
That I read everything you wrote
I spent every morning
And every afternoon
Memorising this for you
You and I
Hide the past in gentle ground
And say goodbye
When you make a choice to leave
A coil is tightly wound
Let it break apart
I know the price of love is cruel
And the weight is a strain
From an open wound
I want you to know
That I read everything you wrote
I spent every morning
And every afternoon
Memorising this for you
We make it less, at least more contained
Watched it all with calm despair
Came as close as I could bear
Kept you near so we could hold
And hope that more would then follow
You and I
Carved our name into a larch
To keep the time
Just as a good guest
Who knows when to depart
The table of life
Keep it together
Sisters with a broken heart
Just keep it together
We fall with a broken branch
Because we are together
Every step and fatal path
Just keep it together
Hoping only to advance
I want you to know
That I read everything you wrote
I spent every morning
And every afternoon
Memorising this for you
You and I
Hide the past in gentle ground
And say goodbye
When you make a choice to leave
A coil is tightly wound
Let it break apart
I know the price of love is cruel
And the weight is a strain
From an open wound
I want you to know
That I read everything you wrote
I spent every morning
And every afternoon
Memorising this for you
