lyrics

Lovely sister, paint your
World of wonder
Starlit, scarlet rolls of
Aching thunder

There is a world that’s hidden
In your eyes
Apple skies
Soothing sighs
Secrets dawning
You’re like an ancient well
Cast a spell
I can tell
That it’s Amy

So we’re leaving, we’ll be
Breathing far away
Paint the pain and love
Surrounding you each day




And when you’re lonely you just
Think of me
And I’ll be
Endlessly
Waiting for you
The lines upon your hand
Trace a land
Understand
Know it, be true

It’s no chance that we’ve been
Bonded at the heart
Over distance you’ll be
With me every part

Don’t be afraid of falling
Dare to blush
Lift your brush
Heave and hush
Tender colours
Reveal your ageless sun
Shock and stun
Everyone
Lovely sister
