Oh, my sweet sister Dew, what have I done?
All my life I've only loved the one
I was taught to be tolerant and plain
I was taught a million things I can't explain
It must have been the hatred in her eyes
It must have been the power to her lies
Tell me, sister, there's a place where I can hide
Oh, my sweet, this is how it did unfold
No, my body never felt so calm and cold
All around us there were people in the park
No, my senses never felt so clear and stark
And I know that she saw it in my way
And I'm sure that she heard it in my voice
Tell me, sister, please, I didn't have a choice
And I enjoyed to see her being idle
She never had no worries, nothing vital
From the day I met her to the final
Afternoon
There was something there, I can't describe it
We were kicking ass, we, we didn't fight it
She never once suspected, that she had it
Coming soon
Oh, my sweet sister Dew, what have I done?
All my life I've only loved the one
I was raised with compassion and they said
I was loved for the loving that I spread
Now the only thing remaining is this chill
And the only emptiness I need to fill
Is understanding what it is that made me kill
Please forgive me if I, I keep on smiling
But every sad story has a funny side in
From that moment on I, I felt like crying
Every day
As all around us there were people screaming
For half a second I thought I was dreaming
My baby looked at me, her, her eyes were beaming
I walked away
Oh, my sweet sister Dew, what have I done?
All my life I've never loved no one
So it dawned on me this should be the place
Now the only thing I crave is an embrace
So let your tender wisdom be mine
And let me come to you like a child
I'd like to stick around here for a while

| ivq | Posted: Jun 01, 2007 - 04:22 Quite some Belgian music on RP lately: Deus, Admiral Freebee, Hooverphonic, Gabriel Rios, to name but a few. Keep it up, says this Belgian expat ;-) |

Yes, you should play more form dEUS. One of the most interesting bands of the 90s. The sideprojects of the band are also worth a listen..  |

There are radio rippers that allow you to create mp3 streams, haven't tried them out yet but seems you could play them on a ipod. |

I for one remember PLASTIC BERTRAND. He was a household name. Legitimized Punk I feel. |
