Daddy knew it he always dressed you pretty | B |
He was so proud of you he would show you off anywhere | C |
But I never was jealousy anyway | D |
All I knew is I had a big brother | E |
- | |
I always wanted to be like you | F |
I competed with you to be you | F |
We fought you always beat me | B |
In the fury the rage I knew I would never beat you | F |
But in death you didn't have to beat me | B |
- | |
I remember the school days | G |
The small twins we were the center of attention | H |
But only me knew what a big brother I had in you | F |
You would always be my big brother no matter what | I |
I shunned the attention I could have loved you more | J |
- | |
Strange how much I loved you | F |
But never would show a clue about it | K |
We grew up and so did the distance | L |
The river between us grew wider | E |
But you always had my back still my big brother | E |
- | |
I ignored the adoration I had for you | F |
Always knew nothing would come between us | M |
Ours was unbreakable cast in diamond | N |
It was the best thing I had for keeps | O |
That was a dear and loving brother | E |
- | |
I let the waters of the river rise too high | P |
I took it for granted they would subside | Q |
Never thought I could run out of time | R |
To walk to you when the flood went down | S |
But when it did I got stuck in the mud | T |
- | |
I regret every day those opportunities I let go | U |
I should never have waited that long | V |
To show you the love I always knew I had for you | F |
I now hold it in shame can't find a you to give it to | F |
- | |
It's such a heavy burden to bear | C |
If only you could give me another chance | W |
I promise I will never let you out of my sight | A |
Remember me telling you | F |
That for as long as you lived your position I wouldn't take | X |
You never would have known how sweet it was to be a little brother | E |
I wouldn't see my big brother cry for help | Y |
Because I always thought it was my preserve | Z |
For that I pay dearly my heart cries for you daily | B |
- | |
I wish and wish everyday | D |
I could live the same life again | A2 |
I would give you my love every minute of my life | B2 |
I would never imagine | H |
How empty life would be without you | F |
