Oh, Sister
(„Desire”, 1976 Columbia)
G Bm C (b Am ) G
Oh, sister, when I come to lie in your arms
G Em C G
You should not treat me like a stranger.
G Bm C ( b Am) G
Our Father would not like the way that you act
G Em C G
And you must realize the danger.
Oh, sister, am I not a brother to you
And one deserving of affection?
And is our purpose not the same on this earth,
To love and follow His direction? *
F C
We grew up together
G
From the cradle to the grave
F C
We died and were reborn
G D (C-b-a)
And then mysteriously saved.
Oh, sister, when I come to knock on your door,
Don't turn away, you'll create sorrow.
Time is an ocean but it ends at the shore
You may not see me tomorrow.
