Sandra
Sisters And Brothers Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sandra, full of anticipation
Counting the seconds down
You waited long to see them
Long to hear them talk
You gave them beautiful names
Names that you never called
Full of anticipation
Here at last

Close in, views of crystal seas
Sand under your feet
Call them by their names
Hear them at last

Feel them sitting beside you
Didn't I tell you
This was the time I saved them for?
If this is the moment
To get to know them
Why do you stare at me so much?

Sandra, endless satisfaction
A promise in me comes true
You held my hand in your sadness
Hold it in heaven too
Endless days together
Love like you never knew




Full of anticipation
Here at last
