(Yeah, some of this stuff at the beginning I might, you know, wanna keep. 'Cause this kind of talking in the background, it's kind of cool. 1 3 3 4...)

Just to see you tells me things are changing
You've become something more than real
Someone we kept here as our secret
She spreads her wings and flies
Smiling, laughing, you've remained so trusting
You've become something more that real
More than special, something more that different
Something truly rare
I see you standing there
Wind blows in your hair

And I try to think of the words I'd speak at her graduation. . . for you
I think how good it is to see you
A sister's love and a woman's wisdom
Lives inside your eyes, lives inside your eyes
And I won't say goodbye

Little sister, how I love you
I watch these things inside you grow
I watch in awe-struck admiration
???????????????????????????
Grace and beauty: your companion
All your ????? is love and life
Now precious, precious, now it's your turn
Nightingale spreads her wings and flies
????????????????????????????
And oh, it's gonna be alright for you


And I try to think of the words I'd speak at her graduation. . . for you
I think how good it is to see you
A sister's love and a woman's wisdom
Lives inside your eyes, lives inside your eyes
And I won't say goodbye

Weaving stream or a pool of kindness
They need you true and you remain
I have to say all these things that surface
Even if I tried
No, I just couldn't get it right
I know it'll be alright
I know you'll be alright
No, you'll never be alright

Words I'd speak at her graduation. . . for you
I think how good it is to see you
A sister's love and a woman's wisdom
Lives inside your eyes, lives inside your eyes
And I won't say goodbye
To you, to you

And I try to think of the words I'd speak at her graduation. . . for you
I think how good it is to see you
A sister's love and a woman's wisdom
Lives inside your eyes, lives inside your eyes
And I won't say goodbye
To you, I'm not gonna go
