Sister Named Desire

Music and Lyrics by Tori Amos


Got a sister named Desire
they don't let you light those
little boy's backs [?]
on the back hand swings.
know a vicar who coughs a lot
thought we told some little sweet stories
in the parking lot

they say the girl lost her sway
they say the girl lost her sway
that day

God, I'd like to take him for a long way
cause maybe I
then I just cry a little tear
near to that sleepy safe place
and I'm gonna take it by myself if I've got to go
don't let you, let you know
where she goes to with those meows and her fear

the girl lost her sway
they say the girl lost her sway
that day

teach me about them old old words
big brother man
In an elevator where
somebody can get out without sound
Say that girl lost her sway
just watch it
just watch it
slip through my hands, boy
watch it go
what you know, hey, yes

just see
cause she still can sway
