Terri Hendrix - The Sister's Song lyrics

You had the left side and i had the right With a line down the middle so we wouldn't fight Two sisters sharing a room With desk in the middle of two twin beds I listened to every word you said And when I couldn't face the world I faced you instead I saw me It pulled me through when I saw me It pulled me through when I saw me From your point of view We twirled around in the breeze The years turned faster than the leaves The seasons stopped when you left home I remember that first night I was so alone i kept on the lights And stood in a half empty room on the line you had drawn When life picked me up and spun me around You never stopped and judged You showed me that the way through Was to do the best i could Did you know that every holiday When relatives mixed up our names I smiled to myself and pretended i was you When you were around there were so many words i never knew how to say I've got to let you know i said them all in my own way
