I speak the truth, though harsh the words may seem,
A broken wrist, a fractured wedding dream.
No garland placed, no vows to softly bind,
Oh sister, how can I be left behind?
Oh sister, how can I be left behind?
A broken wrist, a fractured wedding dream.
A broken wrist, a fractured wedding dream.
No garland placed, no vows to softly bind,
Oh sister, how can I be left behind?
Oh sister, how can I be left behind?

The world will whisper, judgments ever near,
The sister's hurt, the brother’s falling tear.
For you, my sister, every slight I'd brave,
Oh sister, how can I be left a knave?
Oh sister, how can I be left a knave?

If you should turn, then I too turn away,
No secrets kept, I speak the truth this day.
If you should turn, then I too turn away,
No secrets kept, I speak the truth this day.
I'll find your love, though shadows start to fall,
Oh sister, how can I be left to stall?
Oh sister, how can I be left to stall?

A smile now dawns, then fades with subtle grace,
A wedding's song, a joy I can't embrace.
A wedding's song, a joy I can't embrace.
Some darkness lurks, a twist within the tale,
Oh sister, how can I be left to wail?
Oh sister, how can I be left to wail?
A broken wrist, a fractured wedding dream.
No garland placed, no vows to softly bind,
Oh sister, how can I be left behind?
Oh sister, how can I be left behind?
