For My Sisters
Your little hand in mine
And your big green eyes
They called us twins when
We were the same height
Sometimes Christina
Stay home from school
Sometimes her face turned pale
And her lips turned blue
She'd shake so hard
When her world stopped
I'd climb into her hospital bed
We'd watch Barbie and Dora
From your bed spread
Now your heads at my shoulder
We're a decade older
Remember when you said
You hated French fries
Remember the bad days
Maria screamed so hard she'd cry
We fit three on a seesaw
Til Christina went and told mom
Maria kept my secrets
While we played polly pockets
We try on all seven pairs
Of her old glasses
Her brown eyes would stare
And she'd shake her head
As she always said
I will always be the big sister
I always be older
You
You can be the baby
Me
I'll never be the baby
Remember the girls
That said the things
You didn't know what they meant
Remember sharing bunk beds
Remember watching our sister
Leave in an ambulance
Me
I'll never be the baby
Please
I want to be the baby
God
Why'd you make me the baby
God
I'll never be the baby
And your big green eyes
They called us twins when
We were the same height
Sometimes Christina
Stay home from school
Sometimes her face turned pale
And her lips turned blue
She'd shake so hard
When her world stopped
I'd climb into her hospital bed
We'd watch Barbie and Dora
From your bed spread
Now your heads at my shoulder
We're a decade older
Remember when you said
You hated French fries
Remember the bad days
Maria screamed so hard she'd cry
We fit three on a seesaw
Til Christina went and told mom
Maria kept my secrets
While we played polly pockets
We try on all seven pairs
Of her old glasses
Her brown eyes would stare
And she'd shake her head
As she always said
I will always be the big sister
I always be older
You
You can be the baby
Me
I'll never be the baby
Remember the girls
That said the things
You didn't know what they meant
Remember sharing bunk beds
Remember watching our sister
Leave in an ambulance
Me
I'll never be the baby
Please
I want to be the baby
God
Why'd you make me the baby
God
I'll never be the baby
