I was just a girl who fell in love with Judy

Everything was red it was never just her shoes

I was a girl overcome with envy

Everything was gold if it belonged to you

Oh to be open and willing to begin anew

Oh to be open and willing to be a sister to you

Oh to be open and willing to let the ghost be gone

Oh to be open and willing to be the wiser one

You were just a girl when momma was afraid

She would leave us both well before her time

Everything would change when you found your soul mate

Then you went away and I felt left behind

I spent a lifetime looking over my shoulder

For the one who was older to carry me down

To the river where we used to skip stones

Before we skipped chapters to unwritten tomes to begin a new and be a sister to you let the ghost be gone

Oh to be open and willing to be the wiser one
