Sister

Go to sleep, sister, go to sleep

Within the deep, dry, well of my whisper, go to sleep

You have been coming for a while to my different rooms

You're one big Hollywood anthem to my groan

Is it you, is it me, is this how you'll appear

You know I never understood your cry

And I guess I never tried



Go to sleep

Sister

Go to sleep



Another day will soon be rising from the ground

With another distant whisper carried at the speed of sound

Go to sleep

Points me back to the far provinces of our past

Ah, there were crying sleepless centuries

But never like this

And as it appears

I never understood your cry

And I guess I never tried



Sister, are you still awake?

Yes I'm still awake

I've been walking in the sidewalk sun

Sidewalk, sidewalk sun



Go to sleep

Sister

Go to sleep



I've been out walking in the sidewalk sun
