When the sisters spoke to me
I didn't have the ears to hear 'em
They were just motioning from up on the rise
When the sisters called to me, the sunlight was between us
I couldn't open my eyes

But there was a whispering, it sounded just like a lover
Every secret seconded by blue butterflies
Then across a broken morn, a deep and azure stillness
Sister, sing me alive
Sing me alive

Guess I'll take another look at my reflection
In the small pool gathering all my love, liquefied
Don't be afraid if you don't recognize me
Yeah, if you don't recognize me
I'm like the changing tide

Oh, I don't wanna cry
But I have to
We all gotta go to the other side
It's a dark road
Let the tears roll
Your life is what you make of it
You're a fighter
Mother eagle
Sing me alive
Sing me alive

I rub my sleepy eyes and see you're still beside me
The sound of tiny footsteps running down the hall
A sip of coffee, and I'll leave the dream behind me
But I'm right where they can find me, sisters all

We all gotta go to the other side
It's a dark road
Let the tears roll
To the other side
Oh, your life is what you make of it
You're a fighter
Mother eagle
Sing me alive, sing me alive
Sing me alive, sing me alive
Oh, I don't wanna cry
But I have to
We all gotta go to the other side
It's a dark road
Let the tears roll
Your life is what you make of it
You're a fighter
Mother eagle
Sing me alive
