Sixpence None the Richer — Sister Mother

[Verse 1] My life is plagued By mistakes, broken love Slaps in the face But I'm trying to care To dare to embrace Your face [Chorus 1] Hug him like a brother Kiss her like a sister Let her be my mother for now [Verse 2] I want to find Where the maid in the street Is pouring her wine I heard she takes you in And gives you the words You need said [Chorus 2] If you'll be her brother She'll kiss you like a sister She'll even be your mother For now [Instrumental Break] [Bridge] Hug him like a brother Kiss her like a sister Let it be my mother Let it be my father [Chorus 3] I will be her brother Kiss her like a sister Come and be my mother Forever [Instrumental Outro]
