Heaven made a killing 

Well they're an angel more 

And we're an angel less 

Fate had made arrangements 

Playing a hand again 

Now the one I love's a mess 



Tell me mother when you cry 

Can she hear your sorrow sigh?



Sister sleeping in the breeze 

You are all she ever sees 



Laid to rest in tears 

Rained in time for May 

But a year's not time enough 

If she falls I'll catch her 

And though I may be weak 

I will hold her up with love 



Tell me mother when you cry 

Can she hear your sorrow sigh?



Sister sleeping in the breeze 

You are all she ever sees 



Tell me mother when you cry 

Can she hear your sorrow sigh?



Sister sleeping in the breeze 

You are all she ever sees
