Lyrics You're Getting Like Your Sister - Bill Ryder-Jones

You're Getting Like Your Sister

I never meant for anything to get this far
I didn’t mean to hurt you, that’s just how things are
Listen to me my dear, that’s what you said
I tipped the table over, on your promises
I threw a candle at you
Christina you were so pretty when we went to school
The other girls just wanted to be pretty too
And when they turned against you, I was there
But now I’m turning on you, and your promises
I’m piling rocks upon you
You didn’t have to run
I wasn’t gonna keep you, for very long
You had to make a song and dance our target
I lost my patience, then things went black
I never meant for anything to get this far
I didn’t mean for anyone to come to harm
But when I want to see you, I know where you’ll be
Past the country horses, by an apple tree
I could bring you roses
Christina I saw your sister on the road this week
I asked after your mother and she smiled at me
I don’t know how to tell you but I think she’s sweet
I think I’m falling for her, I think she’s falling for me
But I’ll keep coming for you
Why did you take so long?
You’re getting like your sister
You said I was the one, but I get so lonely
When you stay out
And it makes me angry, the things go black
I never meant for anything to get this far
I didn’t mean for anyone to come to harm
But when I want to see you, I know where you’ll be
Past the country horses, by an apple tree
I’ll keep it tidy for you
Christina now it’s your sisters playing games with me
I wish you could have seen the carry on this week
It all just makes me miss you a little more
But you’re just like each other, so you belong together
So I’ll stop coming for you
