Melted My Heart

You were the sister I never had The sister I wanted bad The one that got 
grounded with me

You were the sister that made me glad The sister that made me laugh You were 
everything I wanted you to be

You were my hope My joy Healed me when others thought my heart was a toy 
Next to me you would sleep

You never seemed to have misery that wanted company You practically walked in 
my shoes All me struggles you knew For me there was nothing you wouldn't do 
My sister how you were a dream come true

Opened up my world to you more than anyone else You lifted me up all the times 
I fell You kept my secrets when everyone else would tell You knew who I was and 
loved it There was nothing I had to sell

How broken I am because of you How what was deep is now shallow How the 
friendship we had turned out to be a friendship to lose How what was solid and 
together is now soft Soft and drifted apart  How the person that gave me love 
Took it away  Melted my heart
