"Your big sister" by David Wilhelm

Preferred Band/Artist: BlackByrd

You love your big sister
She's always looking out for you
And if you were stronger
You could be protecting her too

She brushes your hair
And carries you to your bed
She kisses you on the cheek
And you ask her if you can sleep with her instead

Please keep the lights on
To keep the monster away
To keep the monster away

This morning you looked so sad
You heard your sister crying last night
She knows what you're thinking
That everything is not alright

You paint a picture
Birds and flowers cover the page
So you can feel happy
Something that should be easy at your age

'Can we go out tonight?'
But your question falls on deaf ears
She turns to you, smiles
And gently wipes away your tears

Please keep the lights on
To keep the monster away
To keep the monster away

You love your big sister
She's always looking out for you
And if you were stronger
You could be protecting her too
