Lyrics

The media player is loading... It wasn't long ago that I was all alone
I never had anyone, anyone to call my own
I knew where I was going, but I never had a clue
What my life would really be until I found you


You pulled me from the loneliness, you made me feel at home
You taught me about brotherhood, now I know I'll never roam
We started out as strangers, but now we're more than friends
We've become a family that I know will never end


Chorus:
You're my brother, you have always been there
You're my brother, in my time of need
You're my brother, I would follow you any where
You're my brother, no matter where life leads


You've always stood beside me, every step of the way
We do that for each other, yeah, we do that day by day
If we stand together, united as one
We can do anything that we need to get done


Chorus


I put my life in your hands, I've laid it on the line
I know you will never let me down
And I will come running if ever you should call
Even though I may not always be around


Chorus


You're my brother, for a lifetime guaranteed
