I remember how she climbed the tree
to look at death
It was the day grandmother died
I remember hearing every word
beneath her breath
And the way our brother cried

One can't hide from time
One way to kill time
Did you ever have a sister?
Did you ever have a sister?
Dalton Ames

I hear time and flee time
but always seem to find time
Staring at me,
haunting me with change
I feel time, there was a time,
when we were there, a bright time
And we almost tried to end time

One can't hide from time
One way to kill time
Did you ever have a sister?
Did you ever have a sister?
Dalton Ames

Smother time beneath the liquid
door way to the past and future
The smell of water, dream of water,
only water where the time won't be.
Did you ever have a sister?
Did you ever have a sister?
