Hey you give up the ghost that's haunting you now
Shout it out don't let it stay inside and eat you alive
Make up your mind don't you understand this side of the line

Hang on till tomorrow I don't wanna hear you're late
Dance little sister don't give up today
Hang on till tomorrow don't give up your stay
Say say say now share the weight and lay your cross down
And let the long reaching arm of hope bring you around

🔥last fire will rise behind those eyes
Black house will rock, blind boys don't lie
Immortal fear, that voice so clear
Through broken walls, that scream I hear
Cry, little sister thou shall not fall
Come, come to your brother thou shall not die
Unchain me, sister thou shall not fear
Love is with your brother thou shall not kill
Blue masquerade, strangers look on
When will they learn this loneliness?
Temptation heat beats like a drum
Deep in your veins, I will not lie
Little sister thou shall not fall
Come, come to your brother Thou shall not die
Unchain me, sister Thou shall not fear
Love is with your brother Thou shall not kill
My ShangriLas
I can't forget
Why you were mine
I need you now
Cry, little sister Thou shall not fall
Come, come to your brother Thou shall not die
Unchain me, sister thou shall not fear
Love is with your brother thou shall not kill🔥

Nope still in 2019 sorry dude
@carolinetarrant2486
No but half yes. Suddenly found myself stirring supper, over-singing crrrryyyyy little sister..
Haven't seen the film in a gazillion years nor even relate to the song
Sometimes songs come to find you, you don't choose them
Now I'm listening to it on purpose I feel a tiny dot of pride, soul and a bit dollop of embarrassment incase my boyfriend comes home early
@ZapRowsdower47
