Over seas, through the air...
Touched your heart down with care
All the thoughts left behind...
Soon will catch you in time...
Well, if I could you know
I would let salvation reign on you...
So, won't you push away
All this pain that you've been through?
[Chorus]
Said, Sister don't cry
Sister don't cry no more
Sister dont cry any more (repeat)
While all the scenes shuffle 'round
Let your world anchor down...
Pull your heart from your sleeve
First react, then believe...
You won't always get thunder
To warn you of storms ahead...
So bury all this pain
And get on with your life again...
[Chorus]
Conquer some serenity
Lay yourself in fields of poetry
Close your eyes to all you see
Lay your weary head here with me
[Chorus] ...Sister don't cry any more, (x2)
Touched your heart down with care
All the thoughts left behind...
Soon will catch you in time...
Well, if I could you know
I would let salvation reign on you...
So, won't you push away
All this pain that you've been through?
[Chorus]
Said, Sister don't cry
Sister don't cry no more
Sister dont cry any more (repeat)
While all the scenes shuffle 'round
Let your world anchor down...
Pull your heart from your sleeve
First react, then believe...
You won't always get thunder
To warn you of storms ahead...
So bury all this pain
And get on with your life again...
[Chorus]
Conquer some serenity
Lay yourself in fields of poetry
Close your eyes to all you see
Lay your weary head here with me
[Chorus] ...Sister don't cry any more, (x2)
