Little Sister Leaving Town Lyrics - Tanita Tikaram

As always I stop to speak 

Some girls like to say their piece 

As always I turn to you 

Don't understand what you're doing and 

 

Light up this town 

Grow weary and back down 

It's such an amazing sight 

To be found, little sister leaving town 

 

Says the poet, "I won't grass" 

Some things are better left and not taken to task 

I guess I knew she was a Rose 

She knows what hurts and how to hold 

 

If your daddy he turned round 

Let the grass around him scream the sound 

I'm so sorry for these tales you're telling 

Sometimes you can't account 

 

Light up this town 

Grow weary and back down 

It's such an amazing sight 

To be found, little sister leaving town 

 

And sometimes it's absurd 

A minor triumph when you hear the words 

"I'm just trying to stake my place 

No real fears upon this face" 

 

And my wishes, nobody says 

All the signs when I cross the days 

I'm just holding back for you 

Sometimes that helps too 

 

Light up this town 

Grow weary and back down 

It's such an amazing sight 

To be found, little sister leaving town
