Lyrics
LITTLE SISTER
Words & Music by Arlin Godwin / 1993
I'm doing time,
In this world,
That I am trapped in,
I count the days,
'til I go home,
Wherever that is,
Take me back to my mother,
Take me back to my father,
Little sister,
Won't you hold me close,
And let me dream of blue skies,
Over fields of green,
Where we played as children,
In the summer sun,
I won't forgive you,
If you don't forgive me,
And forget the things we said,
Under the screaming tree,
I'm growing old,
Much too old,
To be forgiven
I'm growing tired,
Of this skin,
That I was born in,
Take me back to my mother,
Take me back to my father,
Little sister,
Won't you hold me close,
And let me dream of blue skies,
Over fields of green,
Where we played as children,
In the summer sun,
I won't forgive you,
If you don't forgive me,
And forget the things we said,
Under the screaming tree,
Little sister, little sister, little sister...
I won't forgive you,
If you don't forgive me,
And forget the things we said,
Under the screaming tree,
Little sister,
Just remember.
