Sister

Couple of traveling folk, sister
I’d buy you a taxi cab if you’d take me with you
We’ve got a father from a broken home
With a head and a heart of gold
Mama went and dug it up, melted it into her mold
Made golden little hearts and bones
Now we’ve got
Love to give cause
Love’s within us
It was the beginning and
Love will be the end of us
On my way to grandma’s house
I see mountains (X2)
Your voice came soft
Like they cut silk when they made your voice box
Mine was probably getting in your way
But someone’s got to get up and yell and
Make way for truth to undress itself
Walk softly in and say what it’s got to say (something simple like)
We’ve got
Love to give cause
Love’s within us
It was the beginning and
Love will be the end of us
On my way to grandma’s house
I see mountains
Take a picture when I’m gone
Send it right back to where we come from
I see her wrinkles in the ripples of this river
Running toward the sea
I see your pictures in the ripples of this river
Running toward eternity
Both of you’ve got
Honey dripping eyes that
Sweeten up my morning
