We were flipping through a photo album
|
at a low branch on the family tree
|
I said, "you look just like him"
|
this one looks like me
|
doesn't she?
|
|
Oh and we really are a mixture
|
as we drew closer to the picture
|
gathering our traits
|
and how they touched each one
|
of our fates
|
|
and I took a moment
|
and thought to myself
|
|
Chorus:
|
Well it's alright, momma
|
cause at least I've got your head upon my shoulder
|
and father
|
the hands you gave me are capable and strong
|
but our love is stronger
|
sister and brother
|
love is stronger
|
|
If I'm standing with my back against the wall
|
I'll remember what this sense I have is for
|
and I'll be in that moment
|
but not by myself
|
I'll have help
|
you will all be with me
|
pulling me along
|
|
And I'll be alright, momma
|
cause at least I've got your head upon my shoulder
|
and father
|
the hands you gave me are capable and strong
|
but our love is stronger
|
sister and brother
|
love is stronger
|
|
And if the world should fall apart
|
I'll not fear
|
love is here
|
love is here
|
|
Chorus
|
(sister and brother part repeated a few times)
