Nothing But A Song

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

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

Oh, it's nothing but a song.
