sister, no wonder

you won't raise your head

to the sky

you're afraid of thunder

it makes you cry

and you don't know why



there's a place that i know

you can see

the face of the earth

that's where i wanna go

on the wind of my birth

the wind of my birth



i'm not afraid of dyin

it's just a setting sun

on the rise

come take these wings and try

it's a world full of butterflies



well i'd like to take you

where the light

of the day began

where the sun

always breaks through

shinin down like a friend



i felt you shaking

awake from your dream

like a child

take your heart

from its' breaking

and lean on a smile



i'm not afraid of dyin

it's just a setting sun

on the rise

come take these wings and try

it's a world full of butterflies



sister, no wonder

you won't raise your head

to the sky

you're afraid of thunder

but it's the fourth of july
