The lyrics to "Sister Sister Theme" by Tia & Tamera Mowry express the loneliness and heartbreak felt by someone who is separated from their loved one. The opening lines set the tone for the song, conveying a sense of emptiness and aimlessness that the singer feels without her partner: "Time on my hands since you've been away boy, I ain't got no plans." The sound of the rain tapping against her windowpane only amplifies this feeling of despair, which is further emphasized in the chorus: "I'm goin' down, I'm goin down, cuz you ain't around baby, my whole world's upside down."

The second verse is more plaintive and emotional, with the singer explaining how difficult it is for her to fall asleep without her lover by her side: "Sleep don't come easy, boy please believe me, since you've been gone everything's been going wrong." The chorus is repeated a second time, with even greater intensity, as the singer's tears fall freely and she appears to be on the verge of a breakdown. The song ends with a repeat of the chorus, underscoring the sense of loss and desperation that the singer feels.
