A brother can be difficult
a blessing and a curse
but living life without one
is something far worse.
Together in fraternity,
a sentence set for life,
laced with petty rivalries
and ready for a fight.
Where nothing's ever left unsaid,
and the battle lines are drawn.
Promises are broken;
attack and get it done.
Weapons drawn and ready,
and who will fire first?
Hands, strong and steady,
hit exactly where it hurts.
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.
Oh, you put on a happy face
for every body 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 how the life we share,
remember how the life we share
is nothing but a song.
Ahh Ahh Ahh Ahh
Ahh Ahh Ahh
Ahh Ahh Ahh Ahh
Ahh Ahh Ahh
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.
Ahh Ahh Ahh Ahh
Ahh Ahh Ahh
Ahh Ahh Ahh Ahh
Ahh Ahh Ahh
