You want to know how it will be
Me and her, or you and me
You both stand there, your long hair flowing
Your eyes are alive, your mind still growing

Saying to me what can we do now
That we both love you
I love you too and I don't really see
Why can't we go on as three?

You are afraid, embarrassed too
No one has ever said such a thing to you
Your mother's ghost stands at your shoulders
A face like ice, a little bit colder

Saying to you, you cannot do that
It breaks all the rules, you learned in school
But I don't really see
Why can't we go on as three?

We love each other, it's plain to see
There's just one answer that comes to be
Sister lovers, water brothers
And in time maybe others

So you see what we can do
Is to try something new
If you're crazy too and I don't really see
Why can't we go on as three?
