Pain of Salvation - Sisters lyrics

When all are dizzy and happy
From too much wine i leave the party behind
To walk alone with my thoughts
And this spinning mind
Through this cold night but there she stands

And she walks like you
And she smiles almost like you
A child of the wild just like you yes

Ah, ah ah, ooh, ah

For a second I think I get a glimpse
Of the real her, behind
She's warm and fragile with smiles
That reach to her eyes for just this moment
A change so sublime

If she'd looked me deep into my eyes
And softly asked me to
I'd be in her bed and in her flesh
And waste the life I knew
So I hold my breath and close my eyes
And focus on the wine
Let this trembling moment pass us by
So I could say goodnight

But then an impulse
I almost touched her face
Before I pulled back my hand
And we get nervous
We laugh and she spills her wine
Both so awkward for what's on our mind

And she talks like you
And she smells almost like you
A child of the wild just like you
But she's not all you
Even strives not to be you
Just like every sister would do

And perhaps it's the wine
Or that you're in her eyes
But, I want her this one single time
Just this one time

If she'd looked me deep into my eyes
And softly asked me to
I'd be in her bed and in her flesh
And waste the life I knew
So I hold my breath and close my eyes
And focus on the wine
Let this trembling moment pass us by
And then we'll say goodnight

And if I'd look into her eyes
And softly asked her to
She would give herself and give her flesh
And waste the life she knew
So we hold our breaths and close our eyes
And take a sip of wine
But this thirst has emptied every glass
And we should say goodnight
God, help me say goodnight
