[00:00.43]They'd ask you what you'd like
[00:02.76]And you'd say "What my sister's having"
[00:04.80]Same new bike
[00:05.99]Same new shoes
[00:07.00]When you were 4 and I 6 or 7
[00:08.94]Always right in your eyes and
[00:11.16]Oh I led the way with pride those years ago
[00:17.36]It turned to night
[00:19.48]Close out the door
[00:20.50]Curl up in bed
[00:21.41]But leave on the light
[00:23.89]We'd read books
[00:25.06]You'd read yours and I'd read mine
[00:28.15]But I'd help you with the words you didn't know
[00:34.25]Oh I still see you at the edge of your bed
[00:38.91]With your freckles and those curls on your head
[00:44.89]I never thought I'd learn so much from you
[00:48.57]And for the most part I'm just proud
[00:54.17]But I guess a part of me
[00:56.15]Just thought it'd always be the other way around
[01:01.98]I never thought I'd learn so much from you
[01:05.92]I guess I thought I knew it all
[01:11.85]I'm sorry I'm just not as great as both of us
[01:15.00]Had thought when we were small
[01:19.41]They'd ask you "What's your name?"
[01:21.90]And you'd look at me and you'd stand behind
[01:24.09]See you were shy
[01:25.26]The year that you were turning 7 I was 9
[01:28.44]But you soon grew to be quite talkative
[01:31.03]And grew to be quite sure
[01:33.15]Doesn't seem all that long ago when were both sat on the floor
[01:36.87]When we drew pictures of the places that we'd visit in our dreams
[01:41.20]Turned in to stories
[01:42.42]Then to poems
[01:43.23]When you were 12 and I 14
[01:45.62]The year I realised I wasn't always right
[01:48.66]And that one hurt
[01:49.70]I always thought that I knew more
[01:51.99]And that was just the way it worked
[01:54.18]Because I still see you at the edge of your bed
[01:58.82]With your freckles and those curls on your head
[02:04.98]I never thought I'd learn so much from you
[02:08.69]And for the most part I'm just proud
[02:14.27]But I guess a part of me
[02:16.19]Just hoped it'd always be the other way around
[02:22.09]I never thought I'd learn so much from you
[02:26.01]I guess I thought I knew it all
[02:31.87]I'm sorry I'm just not as great as both of us
[02:34.94]Had thought when we were small
[02:39.25]Now I know I'm probably sounding selfish
[02:42.65]Oh I probably sound a fool
[02:44.73]'Cause of course I want the whole world wide and open for you too
[02:49.49]I was just much better as a younger older sister
[02:53.30]I hope that it's okay that for a moment I just missed her
[02:57.61]But I know how far you'll go
[03:01.41]I don't know it all
[03:06.20]But I know it's lovely who we are
[03:09.54]Though lovely who were when we were small
