Sentimental

When I was home, Armour wanted me to listen to this song - we watched the Tim Reynolds/Dave Matthews acoustic version on DVD.

Those of you who know me know I'm pretty hard - but when Armour told me he wanted to learn how to play this for me, it about did me in.

If any of you out there have a sister or brother - you know what I mean. It's the kind of relationship that can never be untied - never taken for granted.

Here are the lyrics; you can listen to the song if you push the "play" button on the right column of the blog...


"Passing time with you in mind,
It's another quiet night
I feel the ground against my back,
Counting stars against the Black

Thinking of another day
Wishing I was far away
Wherever I dreamed I was,
You were there with me

Sister, I hear you laugh
My heart feels fuller -
Keep me please
Sister, when you cry, I feel your tears running down my face
Sister, Sister - keep me.

I hope you always know it's true,
That I would never make it through -
You can make the sun go dark,
Just by walking away

Playing like we used to play
Like it would never go away
I feel you beating in my chest,
I'd be dead without -

Sister, I hear you laugh,
My heart feels fuller
Keep me please
Sister, when you cry, I feel your tears running down my face
Sister, Sister keep me .

I hope you always know it's true
That I would never make it through -
You can make the heavens fall
Just by walking away - Just by walking away.

Sister, when you laugh,
My heart feels fuller
Keep me please
Sister, when you cry, I feel your tears running down my face
Sister, Sister - keep me."


"Sister" by Dave Matthews
