I Went Dancing with My Sister

Sufjan Stevens

    Continues after the ad

    We were, we were, we were lovers
    We had nothing but above us

    We were touching, we were turning
    We were eighteen, get to learning

    Saw your mother at the river
    Washing ribbons, saw her sip, saw her sip there

    I've seen laymen up and walking
    I've seen deaf and dead men talking

    And I have had enough of trouble
    I've been paid in full and double

    Continues after the ad

    Break a glass against the table
    Break a promise if you're, if you're able

    I went dancing with my sister
    Call her madam, call me mister

    She wore dresses, nice and something
    Underneath her dress was nothing

    She did curse it, she did keep it
    She said she did something stupid

    I said who's the master idol
    I can kill or catch a fly dead

    Point me in the right direction
    Point me to the middle section

    And I have had enough of trouble
    I've been paid in full and double

    Break a glass against the table
    Break a promise if you're, if you're able

    Break a glass against the table
    Break a promise if you're, if you're, if you're able
