Sister
Eleven Thirty Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Just by the tone of your voice
You have been with me
Right from the start....even now
You're right by my side
There is no deeper love
Funny how I always know
You're part of me and I'm proud
Just to be with you I'm with you
I wish you the world
Every night
I'd lay down my life
With no ifs, ands or buts
Tell you all my secrets
And you tell me yours
You're my best friend
Sister, HO!, sister
Look at you and I see me
It's a strange kind of comforting
Knowing you're always there for me
Protecting, and I'm watching
Ho! you're my soul
Ho! I'm your soul
We could reach out and hold on
Just by the touch I know how you feel
I'm with you, yes, I'm with you
You are strength I need
And you are my wings
And I will always be
Right by your side when you call
