Sister

And now you're far away

And I can't hold your hand

Even though I never did when you were near

So here's a song for you my sister

To make believe I'm there though I am here....

        Now you're in a city crawling from its wreckage

        And its courage will sustain you through the cold

        You may be a grown woman on your own now

        But you'll still be my sister till we're old

If the fates are kind I'll soon be there to see you

But don't worry even if I can't real soon

We've got the rest of both our lives to see together

And the best of years gone by to see us through

       So though you're missing home

      And I don't seem to sympathize

      That's just a cover-up for how I feel

      So here's a song for you my sister

      A reminder that my love for you is real

Yes you may be a grown woman on your own now

But you're always my sister - that's the deal
