Brother, I'm in need of a friend
for I am drowning in disarray
And brother, it is on you I depend
to pull me out of this misery
Like a hero I've always seen you
even though I would never say
And through the years
the laughter and the tears
it's you who were strong
in the right and the wrong
a tribute to the world that
blood is thicker than water
I'm tryin' to say that I love you
I'm tryin to say that I need you,
Brother
And father, I'm in need of your hand
so I can face the world bravely
and father, do you understand
what it is you mean to me
Like a warrior you always conquered
every battle you had to face
And through the hard times
when life was a bitter fight
it's you who would give
so unselfish you lived
A tribute to the world that blood
Is thicker than water
I'm tryin' to say that I love you
I'm tryin' to say that I miss you
Oh, father
for I am drowning in disarray
And brother, it is on you I depend
to pull me out of this misery
even though I would never say
And through the years
the laughter and the tears
it's you who were strong
in the right and the wrong
a tribute to the world that
blood is thicker than water
I'm tryin to say that I need you,
Brother
so I can face the world bravely
and father, do you understand
what it is you mean to me
every battle you had to face
And through the hard times
when life was a bitter fight
it's you who would give
so unselfish you lived
A tribute to the world that blood
Is thicker than water
I'm tryin' to say that I miss you
Oh, father

This song means alot to me because I hardly tell my father or brother how much they mean to me or how much they've changed my life. I know I wouldn't be the person I am today if I had no brother, or a different one, or father for that matter. This song is all about that love for your family. And saying it to them.
