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
