SISTER SISTER


My sweet sister She took care of me in my early years Loving me, teaching me, caring for me One day everything changed 'Sister, don't be scared' Alone in a foreign land Inexperienced she was Struggled she did All to make a quid 'Sister you're gonna be alright' To make it she endured years of hardship Living in harsh conditions Taking care of her family Even from a thousand miles 'Sister you're a survivor' Now, now she is free Now everything is better Now we can be together Together at last After so many years 'Sister you're gonna be okay' Now she can do what she wants to do Be who she wants to be Now our family can be whole again Because our jewel is coming back home 'Sister you're gonna be alright'
