Gerardo - Brother To Brother lyrics

Brother to Brother (Gerardo Mejia/Alfred Rubalcava) Tired from working overtime you clear your mind Trying to figure out how much more You must climb to find a way to reach happiness Cannot settle for less you're stressed You think back in your youth trying to soothe the pain Cuz down memory lane it don't rain But a hurricane swept away your dreams and plans Your last chance to glance, you're a victim of circumstance There's no one to blame but yourself You spend your nights in a lousy motel Where the personnel never cares to card To see how old you really are What's done is done you must be strong So just hang on you gotta move on and live on You're young and bright close your eyes turn off the light Don't forget to give my niece a kiss goodnight BRIDGE: Asi es la vida Brother to Brother Aunque nadie me lo crea Brother to Brother Baby's crying mom's asleep, she's overworked Her part-time job as a clerk will have to do Till that tax refund comes through You claimed eight instead of two But your wife can't take it and she's tired of faking it She packs her bags and leaves you, just ain't making it You're not the husband that she thought you would become But leaving her kid don't make her much of a mom Well, now that your wife walked out of your world How do you plan on raising your girl Being a dad you've brought home the bread But you've never made a bed So you're hanging by the phone near the door Looking out the window as the wind blows But she's never coming back She's much too smart for that CHORUS: Well little brother you weren't prepared For what life had in store But there's much to live for Cuz life is full of surprises And when it brings you down you just gotta keep rising So I'm still beside you bro 24/7 To still remind you why a brother is worth having Hermano, you've been there for me And there's nothing I wouldn't do for my family
