Little Sister Leaving Town (The Sweet Keeper 1990)

Текст песни Tanita Tikaram - Little Sister Leaving Town (The Sweet Keeper 1990)

[Verse 1]
As always, I stop to speak
Some girls like to say their piece
As always, I turn to you
Don't understand what you're doing
And

[Chorus]
Light up this town
Grow weary and back down
It's such an amazing sight
To be found

Little sister leaving town

[Verse 2]
Says the poet, "I won't grass"
Some things are better left and not taken to task
I guess I knew she was a rose
She knows what hurts and how to hold

If your daddy he turned round
Let the grass around him scream the sound
I'm so sorry for these tales you're telling
Sometimes you can't account
[Chorus]
Light up this town
Grow weary and back down
It's such an amazing sight
To be found
Little sister leaving town

[Verse 3]
Sometimes it's absurd
A minor triumph when you hear the words
"I'm just trying to stake my place
No real fears upon this face"

And my wishes nobody says
All the [?] when I cross the days
I'm just holding back for you
Sometimes that helps to

[Chorus]
Light up this town
Grow weary and back down
It's such an amazing sight
To be found
Little sister leaving town
