Eddie Mugavero: music

• MP3 play whole song, hi-fi (broadband)

A very special song BBBB never got around to learning. I loved Maureen and Rebecca, and knew they loved each other too. Many times, 'life' got in the way of their true affection for each other. But I was on the road with them, spent countless hours hanging and rehearsing and I KNOW the truth. They were sisters, wishers, dreamers, partners and friends. This song is dedicated to buddies everywhere, male or female.

SISTERS IN ARMS

WE’VE GONE TO THE WELL AND WE’VE OVERPAID DUES
WANDERED THROUGH HELL WEARING GASOLINE SHOES
WE SANK TO NEW LEVELS, WE DRANK SOME MORE WINE
FLIRTED WITH DEVILS, DESERTED OUR MINDS

WE RAIDED OUR CLOSETS AND TRADED OUR CLOTHES
WE MADE DEPOSITS WHEN OUR BALANCE WAS LOW
LAID IN THE SUN AND PLAYED UNDER THE MOON
BLAMED SOMEONE ELSE WHEN WE SANG OUT OF TUNE

NOW WE’RE STUCK ME AND YOU
SISTERS IN ARMS TIL THE END
YES WE’RE STUCK ME AND YOU
WISHERS AND DREAMERS…PARTNERS AND FRIENDS

WE FASTED TOGETHER AND VOWED TO SLOW DOWN
BLASTED OUR MEN WHEN THEY WEREN’T AROUND
WE WALKED IN THE PARK TIL WE RAN OUT OF BEERS
TALKED IN THE DARK TIL WE RAN OUT OF FEARS

(CHORUS)

WE FRONTED EACH OTHER AND COVERED OUR BACKS
PUT DOWN OUR TORCHES AND PICKED UP OUR SLACK
WE SHARED OUR ROLLERS AND WE DYED OUR HAIR
CRIED ON OUR SHOULDERS WHEN NO ONE WAS THERE

(CHORUS)

?????? ALL THE WAYS WE HAVE GROWN
AND I CAN’T IMAGINE HAVING DONE IT ALONE
YOU’RE PART OF THE REASON I AM WHO I AM…
WISHERS AND DREAMERS..PARTNERS AND FRIENDS

(CHORUS)
