You're Getting Like Your Sister - Bill Ryder-Jones

I never meant for anything to get this far,

I didn't mean to hurt you, thats just how things are.

Listen to me my dear, thats what you said.

I tipped the table over, on your promises,

I threw a candle at you.

Christina you were so pretty when we went to school,

The other girls just wanted to be pretty too,

And when they turned against you, I was there.

But now I'm turning over, on your promises,

I'm piling rocks upon you.

You didn't have to run,

I wasn't gonna keep you, for very long.

You had to make a sum and dance our target,

I lost my patience, then things went bad.

I never meant for anything to get this far,

I didn't mean for anyone to come to harm.

But when I want to see you, I know where you'll be,

Past the country horses, by an apple tree,

I could bring you roses.

Christina I saw your sister on the road this week,

I asked after your mother and she smiled at me.

I don't know how to tell you but I think she's sweet,

I think I'm falling for her, I think she's falling for me.

But I'll keep coming for you.

Why did you take so long? You're getting like your sister.

You say the ones the one, but I get so lonely,

When you stay out.

And it gets me angry, the things go by.

I never meant for anything to get this far,

I didn't mean for anyone to come to harm.

But when I want to see you, I know where you'll be,

Past the country horses, by an apple tree,

I'll keep it tidy for you.

Christina now that your sisters playing games with me,

I wish you could have seen her carry on this week.

It all just makes me miss you a little more,

But you're just like each other, so you belong together.

So I'll stop coming for you.
