A brother can be difficult
|
A blessing and a curse
|
But livin' life without one
|
Is something far worse
|
|
Together in fraternity
|
A sentence set for life
|
Laced with petty rivalries
|
And ready for a fight
|
|
When nothing's ever left unsaid
|
The battle lines are drawn
|
Promises are broken
|
Attack again at dawn
|
|
Weapons drawn and ready
|
And who will fire first
|
Hands strong and steady
|
Hit exactly where it hurts
|
|
But you never leave a love so rare
|
You never leave a love so long
|
Remember that the life we share
|
Is nothing but a song
|
|
So you put on a happy face
|
For everybody new
|
But the closest to your heart
|
So rarely get the best of you
|
|
A moment's contradiction
|
And the bickering's begun
|
Daughters after mothers
|
And fathers on their sons
|
|
But you never leave a love so rare
|
You never leave a love so long
|
Remember that the life we share
|
Remember that the life we share
|
Is nothing but a song
|
|
But you never leave a love so rare
|
You never leave a love so long
|
Remember that the life we share
|
Remember that the life we share
|
Remember that the life we share
|
Is nothing but a song
|
