My Sister and I

My Sister and I - Vera Lynn

My sister and I remember still

A tulip garden by an old Dutch mill

And the home that was all our own until

But we don't talk about that

My sister and I recall once more

The fishing schooners pulling into shore

And the dog-cart we drove in days before

But we don't talk about that

We're learning to forget the fear

That came from a troubled sky

We're almost happy over here

But sometimes we wake at night and cry

My sister and I recall the day

We said goodbye and then we sailed away

And we think of our friends would had to stay

But we don't talk about that

My sister and I remember still

A tulip garden by an old Dutch mill

And the home that was all our own until

But we don't talk about that

My sister and I recall the day

We said goodbye

And then we sailed away

And we think of our friends

Would had to stay

But we don't talk about that
