Sisters we used to be by Terin Lyrics
Verse
Our dad building a watermill on a river by the cabin
We were playing pirates, sailing overseas
We would splash him with the water he would stand there like a captain
We were hiding in the fields and among the trees
Prechorus
We were climbing high, reaching for the sky
Feeling warm breeze on our cheeks
Ain’t no reason to mourn, though our shirts were torn
We had bruises on our knees
Chorus
I’ve been thinking constantly about the days we used to play and
I’ve been kicking walls in sleep, dreaming about sistеrs we used to be
Sistеrs we used to be (3x)
Verse
Our mom sitting in a rocking chair, solving crossword in the paper
We were jumping on the rocks down by the lake
She would drink her sweetened coffee from a cup that we all gave her
Summer sun was shining bright on our happy life
Prechorus
She would call her girls, we would come to her
We had tonnes of stories to tell
‘bout the pirates and sails, all the hidden wells
And the caves where monsters dwell
Chorus
I’ve been thinking constantly about the days we used to play and
I’ve been kicking walls in sleep, dreaming about sisters we used to be
Sisters we used to be (3x)
Outro
But the time took it all away
We have no more stories to say
Four of us grew apart
We are west, east, north and south
Memories are in the past
Little women who grew up too fast
I’ll always love you three
Just one look and I see sisters that we used to be
Our dad building a watermill on a river by the cabin
We were playing pirates, sailing overseas
We would splash him with the water he would stand there like a captain
We were hiding in the fields and among the trees
Prechorus
We were climbing high, reaching for the sky
Feeling warm breeze on our cheeks
Ain’t no reason to mourn, though our shirts were torn
We had bruises on our knees
Chorus
I’ve been thinking constantly about the days we used to play and
I’ve been kicking walls in sleep, dreaming about sistеrs we used to be
Sistеrs we used to be (3x)
