Twins from Findlay
words and music by Angela Sheik

I met a pair of twins when I was down in Findlay,
Even all their friends could not tell them apart.
I’m sure that as we talked, my face was tense with envy.
I’m sure I felt a jealous prick inside my heart.

Oh, to have a friend that’s closer than a twin.
Oh, to have a friend that’s been there from the beginning.
To have a friend, a friend that never ends
Who’s always known your name.

Hey, remember all the times we were asked if we were sisters?
How we’d laugh aloud, tickled by the thought.
But now that you’re gone, the question chafes my memory.
Now that you’re gone, and sisters we are not.

Oh, is there a friend that’s closer than a twin?
Is there a friend who’s been there from the beginning?
Is there a friend, a friend that never ends,
And do you know his name?

If I go, will you go with me? If I stay, will you be near me?

Girl, you’d read me books and I’d laugh at all your voices.
Girl, I pinned your hair the day you were a bride.
We’d spend sunny days in a closet swapping dresses.
Girl, I feel one-legged without you by my side.

Oh, is there a friend that’s closer than a twin?
Is there a friend that’s been there from the beginning?
Is there a friend, a friend that never ends,
And do you know his name?

Yes, there is a friend that’s closer than a twin.
Yes, I have a friend, he’s been there from the beginning.
I have a friend, a friend who never ends
And Jesus is his name.
