Drew Holcomb - Sisters Brothers lyrics

It happened to me on the balcony I heard someone singing in the key of C Goodbyes and love and freedom and tragedy It got me singing like a carousel I had to take a vacation to the wishing well To pound all the drums and ring all the bells Sisters, brothers, fathers, and mothers We've got to stand up for each other Sisters, brothers, fathers, and mothers We've got to fight for one another Now promises made and debts were paid We tell ourselves we are not afraid Fear only goes where its invited to stay An eclectic electric hopeless romantic Telling tale-tales to keep your interest Trying to understand the lonely heart of man Sisters, brothers, fathers, and mothers We've got to stand up for each other Sisters, brothers, fathers, and mothers We've got to fight for one another Oh oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh oh yeah Life's not a joke Not a cloud of smoke It's not to be mocked It's a tickin clock Countin down the days Livin on borrowed time Sisters, brothers, fathers, and mothers We've got to stand up for each other Sisters, brothers, fathers, and mothers We've got to fight for one another
