Sister

We used to fight for the front seat

Trade bruised knees for the last slice

Borrowed shirts, borrowed secrets

You’d roll your eyes, then we’d both cry

You’re my sister, my first home, my first friend

From bad hair, broken hearts to laughing at 3 a.m

When the whole world turns its back

I know exactly where to run

You’re my sister, my day one, my only one

I still hear you down the hallway

Singing wrong words way too loud (so loud)

You stitched stars in my dark days

With cheap tea and stubborn vows

You’re my sister, my first home, my first friend

From bad hair, broken hearts to laughing at 3 a.m

When the whole world turns its back

I know exactly where to run

You’re my sister, my day one, my only one

If we move, if we change, if the maps all fade

I’m still yours, you’re still mine, that will never age

We can fall, we can fail, we can lose our way

But if you call, I’m already on my way

You’re my sister, my first home, my first friend

From bad hair, broken hearts to laughing at 3 a.m

When the whole world turns its back

I know exactly where to run

You’re my sister, my day one, my only one
