Sisters

I remember wanting something greater.

We would play out on the porch 'til the sun went down, and they'd call us inside for dinner. Push your hair back, silky at the sound of your name.

That's the name that our mom gave us. That's the magic that they both gave us.

That's the luck that all of us made up when none of us were sure if we'd ever get here in the limelight, dancing in the moonlight, yeah.

Kerosene hearts and I'm both burning bright. Sharing our money at the mall, get high on the downtown.

Nothing's ever like that feeling, but it lasts our life 'cause we keep it in our minds.

All the way 'til we see that final light, yeah, right then and there we might realize everything's a lie. Nah, except for you and I 'til we die. And. . .

So hard when they're waging their wars, but without you, I'll never go far.

It's another thing, love, still I've never been higher than when me and you built a fort from the rubbish bins. Just us, limitless through the thick and thin.

California, oh, when you gave me that haircut, black dye in the basin.

Life is just like a merry-go-round. You are a light that will never go out.

Shine no matter where you ever go now. But you never knew how to erase that part.

I don't even know that you can ever let go.

Something in the middle so suddenly, it puts you in my heart. Falling leaves forgotten in the yard.

Pick it up now, yeah, what you want from me? Remember my face saw so suddenly.

Crushes the room in the phase of the moon, it's always you and me.

The two of us, driving down a road and found life again.

It's the two of us, sister.

Sister, sister, sister, sister, sister.

French children dance!

Do you wanna. . . ?

Turn around and get what you need. Got whatever took you from me.

Turn around and face me, sister.

Sister, sister, sister, sister.
