Brother You Are
From the day I was born
You were always there
You're always interested
From my studies to my hair
Sixteen years of laughter
Mixed in with a fight or two
Even when you were angry
I could always count on you
During every difficult situation
That night with tears not a few
I'll never forget the words you said
"I will never let anyone hurt you."
Even when I was a rebellious kid
You never stopped caring about me
I was more than just an idiot sister
You saw potential of what I could be
On your wedding day, I stood there
As you married the love of your life
I was so proud to be part of that day
I'm here through happiness and strife
I know I don't say it nearly enough
And for that mistake I truly apologize
You always cared, even when I didn't
Understand things, I never realized
You've always had my back every day
It doesn't matter how close or how far
Life is brutal, but I can get through it all
Thanks to the kind of Brother You Are
