My Sister Lyrics

Love has bloomed, ambition rages

We move away, we take our places

We do it all without a single word

But I think we missed the moment, we forgot to freeze the screen

Didn't know it was the last time

That things would be how they've always been

And in the night we used to say things that couldn't live in the light of day

But we don't have those nights anymore

We're happier than we ever were

Everything is falling into place

But I didn't know our childhood had slipped away

Until I woke up one night and I realised

My sister isn't on the other side of the room anymore

The city is loud and I'm loving it all

I walk down to the water almost every night

And this is my own place

But do you remember when my life was yours

You'd paint me pictures of a brand new world

Places only we held the keys to

And yours was the only voice that I would believe

Gazing up adoringly

And taking in everything you told me

And in the night we used to say things that couldn't live in the light of day

But we don't have those nights anymore

We're happier than we ever were

Everything is falling into place

But I didn't know our childhood had slipped away

Until I woke up one night and I realised

My sister isn't on the other side of the room anymore

It's almost like we shared a soul

We've seen each other through it all

You're the closest thing there is to me

Even when you're not so close to me

Through the dark of the room or a hundred miles away

In our new places

Your voice is what I'm chasing

And in the night we used to say things that couldn't live in the light of day

Now we don't have to say a word

Everything is falling into place and I smile looking back at it all

As I watch our childhood fall away

Watch it fall away
