Overseas through the air
And touched your heart down with care
All the thoughts left behind
But soon will catch you in timeAnd if I could, you'd know that I wouldn't
Let salvation reign on you
So, won't you push away
All this pain that you've been through and saySister, don't cry
Sister, don't cry no more
Sister, don't cry anymore
Sister, don't cry
Sister, don't cry no more
Sister, don't cry anymoreWhile the scenes shuffle 'round
Let your world anchor down
And pull your heart from your sleeve
And first react, then believeWhen you won't always get the thunder
To warn you of storms ahead
So bury all this pain
And get on with your life again and saySister, don't cry
Sister, don't cry no more
Sister, don't cry anymore
Sister, don't cry
Sister, don't cry no more
Sister, don't cry anymoreYou conquer some serenity
Lay yourself in fields of poetry
Close your eyes to all you see
Lay your weary head here with me
Oh let meSister, don't cry
Sister, don't cry no more
Sister, don't cry anymore
Sister, don't cry
Sister, don't cry no more
Sister, don't cry anymore
Sister, don't cry anymore
Sister, don't cry anymore
