Lyrics
Liza and me, we were real good friends we could talk the night away. We made a pact unto the Lord to abstain 'til our wedding day. It meant we would have to be watching each other for debauchery. We would hold each other up in love. Now Liza called me on the phone, she would share her heart with me. It felt so good to have a friend, we could talk so sisterly. But then one day went by, I didn't hear from her, I wondered why? Mary said, "She's sleeping with her man." Oh, my sister, don't turn your back on me. Should I close my eyes and pretend not to see? You don't have to answer to me, I am not the One who will set you free. We just hold each other up in love. Liza moved away today, she left town without saying goodbye. I still remember the day I heard, how it made me start to cry. I hope she can hear my prayer, a broken promise doesn't mean I don't care. I will always hold her up in love. Oh, my sister, don't turn your back on me ... (chorus)
