lyrics

JOSEFIN (Be My Sister)
If you could see me now, I would tell you how
It's gonna be better
Wish I could write you a letter ...
But this will have to do for now.

And I could be the man I am supposed to be
I wanna be set free; wanna send you a selfie
But this will have to do for now.
Josefin, I will try my best
But I have to beat all the rest, and I hate it
Gotta pass this test somehow, the rest will have to wait for now

But I'll tell you when this is not the end
Win or lose, I know what I must choose -- my new-found friend,
And my sister -- I know I'm taking a risk here
I will try not to let you down
I'm more than just a silly clown from a tiny and backwards town
... But I will have to do for now.

And if I fail, I hope you will forgive me
I wanna know you somehow
But this will have to do for now
This will have to do for now
This will have to do for now
... but you'll always be my sister.
