Sister
Sanctum Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I took a ride up in the sky
Came back with something I desired
To share with you tonight
When I´ll hold you tight
Don´t take up the fight
Just stay a while

Can you imagine how it feels
When you find the one go (greens)
Don´t move me out on sight
Come back to my light
Use to dance all night
I love your smile

Before the magic makes your way
We must (strong) the dark today
Falling back to grace
Hide behind our fate
Dance the night away
It feels so right

Sister, sister
I know what´s on your mind
Sister, sister
You feel you´re wasting time
Sister, sister
I see it in your eyes
Sister, sister
Spirits in the night

Sister, sister
I know what´s on your mind
Sister, sister
You feel you´re wasting time
Sister, sister
I see it in your eyes
Sister, sister
Spirits in the night

Sister, sister
I know what´s on your mind
Sister, sister
You feel you´re wasting time
Sister, sister
I see it in your eyes




Sister, sister
Spirits in the night
