Sister Beams
Sister Beams: Love's Betrayal Unveiled
Lyrics
Sister beams with girlish pride and a smile worn ear to ear
Sister expresses happiness and pride with a wide smile as her wedding day approaches.
A lifetime's dream, a wedding scene, her precious day draws near
Her lifelong dream of a wedding scene is about to come true, a day she cherishes.
An empty home and a life alone, that's all she's ever feared
She fears the prospect of an empty home and a life alone, a deep-seated concern.
Yesterday her fiance, he made his plans real clear
Her fiancé, as of yesterday, has made it clear that he is not committed to their relationship.
He said, "golden-haired, your sister's fair and she's been so good to me
The fiancé acknowledges Sister's goodness but rejects a lifelong commitment, citing a need for freedom.
But a lifetime bound and tied down, that's one I just can't see."
He emphasizes that being bound and tied down in a lifelong commitment is not something he envisions.
Then he said he must have lost his head when it struck him to agree
He admits to possibly making an impulsive decision and losing his rationale in agreeing to the engagement.
He said, "you're a man and you should understand a man has certain needs."
The fiancé asserts that as a man, he has certain needs that Sister may not understand.
Now every day is just the same
The narrator reflects on the monotony of everyday life since the revelation.
And the hours move by so slow
Time seems to pass slowly as the narrator grapples with the aftermath of the broken engagement.
Every day is like the day before, like every day but I know
Every day feels repetitive, except for the knowledge that a significant change is imminent.
It won't be like the one I leave behind me when I go
The narrator anticipates that the upcoming day will be different from the ordinary ones left behind.
Sister, she don't talk too loud now that things are through
Sister, now subdued, doesn't speak loudly, seeking advice that may never come true.
She's waiting on some old advice but it'll never come true
She awaits guidance but faces the harsh reality that the advice she desires may not materialize.
And she asks me if I'll stay with her but I've got some things to do
Despite Sister's plea for companionship, the narrator has other obligations and cannot stay.
You see, now he's dead, he must have lost his head when I struck him
With the fiancé now deceased, the narrator reflects on the impulsive act that led to his demise.
With what to do
The narrator is left grappling with the consequences of their actions and deciding what to do next.
Now every day is just the same
Similar to earlier, the narrator reiterates the monotony of everyday life post-engagement.
And the hours move by so slow
Time continues to pass slowly, emphasizing the lingering impact of recent events.
Every day is like the day before, like every day but I know
Each day feels repetitive, except for the anticipation of a distinct future departure.
It won't be like the one I leave behind me when I go
The narrator expects that the day of departure will differ significantly from the routine.
