Lyrics
[verse]
Well I've been thinking about the way you laugh
Like sunlight breaking through a photograph
I know I've been the kind to hold back too
But lately all I think about is you
[chorus]
Sister with the honey-colored hair
Would you believe I still get shy somewhere
I ain't the marrying kind, at least I thought I wasn't
But now I'm second-guessing every promise
[verse]
You said you're leaving on the morning train
I stood there like a fool out in the rain
Too scared to say the simple word "stay"
Watching all my chances fade away
[chorus]
Sister with the honey-colored hair
Would you believe I still get shy somewhere
I ain't the marrying kind, at least I thought I wasn't
But now I'm second-guessing every promise
[bridge]
Maybe I'll grow up before the sun goes down
Maybe I'll chase you clear across this town
Some things take a little while to learn
But I'm ready now for love to turn
[chorus]
Sister with the honey-colored hair
Would you believe I still get shy somewhere
I ain't the marrying kind, at least I thought I wasn't
But now I'm second-guessing every promise
