Sisters |
When all are dizzy and happy from too much wine |
I leave the party behind |
To walk alone with my thoughts and this spinning mind |
Through this cold night |
But there she stands |
And she walks like you |
And she smiles almost like you |
A child of the wild just like you |
(Yes) |
For a second, I think I get a glimpse |
Of the real her behind |
She’s warm and fragile with smiles that reach to her eyes |
For just this moment |
A change so sublime |
And if she’d looked me deep into my eyes and softly asked me to |
I’d be in her bed and in her flesh and waste the life I knew |
So I hold my breath and close my eyes and focus on the wine |
Let this trembling moment pass us by, so I could say goodnight |
But then, on impulse, I almost touch her face |
Before I pull back my hand |
And we get nervous, we laugh and she spills her wine |
Both so awkward |
For what’s on our mind |
And she talks like you |
And she smells almost like you |
A child of the wild just like you |
But she’s not all you |
Even strives not to be you |
Just like every sister would do |
And perhaps it’s the wine |
Or that you’re in her eyes |
But I want her this one single time |
(just this one time) |
And if she’d look me deep into my eyes and softly asked me to |
I’d be in her bed and in her flesh and waste a life I knew |
So I hold my breath and close my eyes and focus on the wine |
Let this trembling moment pass us by, and then we’ll say goodnight |
And if I’d look into her eyes and softly asked her to |
She would give herself and give her flesh, and waste the life she knew |
So we hold our breaths and close our eyes and take a sip of wine |
But this thirst has emptied every glass, and we should say goodnight |
God, help me say goodnight |
