Neil Leyton - Staring (At You, From Afar) Lyrics

Sister, don't die your hair
All I have is your memory from last Summer
When the leaves were green and you were free
Do you sit comfortably now, watching the sun rise again
And wondering how lives could have been?

Sister, don't change a thing
You made me feel alive again
Holding hands, made me almost believe in the impossible
Shook me up and I thank you for what you know, yeah

Oh, until then I'll admire you from afar
Your perceptions and all your beautiful scars
When I cannot fall sleep, I'll watch, I'll watch the sun rise
It'll rise again as it always does, yeah (ooh)

Sister, don't stay in tonight
When you know your place is outside shining bright
Star shining bright star (star, oh)

Until then I'll admire from afar
For a love almost dead before it started
When I can't fall asleep I've got my pills and refills
And pain to keep the checks clear, yeah (ooh)

Sister stay, just a word
I'm sorry I'm not bold, I might've run away with you
Ah, if you'd only asked me to

(C'mon)
