lyrics

look at that red dress, fading to pink
time to revive you, with a splash of fresh ink
for the next girl, waiting in line
baby, baby little sister of mine

we’re gonna sort you, right by the hems
the fraying cotton, waving in rows of ten
before the morning comes, before the school bus runs
baby, baby little sister of mine

send you out with the family jewel
forty years in its crimson loom
checkered linings of stories passed
hidden perks of knowing not of the past
a skirt that flares up above your knees
the palest things that i’ve ever seen
a spitting image of mother dear
before she left her home and landed us here

look at that red dress hanging on you
a fitting armour for your first day of school
a precious treasure carried forward anew
baby sister with your pretty eyes blue

i struggle for words that she would’ve said
a damn crying shame that she never met,
this precious creature you’ve grown to be
baby sister now it’s just you and me
