sister
Sam Burchfield Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I must be a brave man
to stand by your side
and shelter your love
when its cold at night
if your staying with me
baby I'll treat you right
we can keep on dancing 'til the morning light
I don't wanna be alone
if i'm not alone with you
people say that there's a silver lining
now I know its true
so i'm trading in my silver
gonna buy a diamond ring
it ain't wintertime, no
so it must be spring
it must be spring
you must be a brave woman
to stay here with me
cause I aint got much money darling
and if you need to leave
i'm not afraid to follow down the darkest streets
so i'm not giving up 'til you marry me
I dont wanna be alone
if i'm not alone with you
people say that there's a silver lining
now I know its true
so i'm trading in my silver
gonna buy a diamond ring
It aint wintertime, no
so it must be spring
spring
spring
spring
I don't wanna be alone
if i'm not alone with you
people say that there's a silver lining
and I know its true
so I traded in my silver
and I bought a diamond ring
it ain't winter time, love
so it must be spring
ooohh it must be spring




it ain't wintertime, love
so it must be spring.
