Sing my sister down by The henry girls Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 2011

Down, down we went down
Down, down, we went down
Down from the higher ground
Oh to sing my sister down
Oh my dear sister, what have you done?
Everyone was watching as you walked out

Out in the midday sun
I can tell by your eyes that you're frightened
But I know you did what you had to do
When you picked up that axe handle you were in charge
Of what was gonna happen to you

And we went…Down, down we went down
Down, down, we went down
Down from the higher ground
Oh to sing my sister down

I wish I had more time to say goodbye
Glaring at the bonfire light
Singing songs for putting baby to sleep
And to soothe broken hearts at night
No coming unstuck from this one
You couldn't let that handle lie
We knew you'd be angry once the glitter wore off
We knew that he had to die

Then we went. Down, down we went down
Down, down, we went down
Down from the higher ground
Oh to sing my sister down
