My Brother, My Best Friend

I wrote a song for my best friend because I was feeling sappy and never good with expressing my feelings. So, this is for him.

[Verse 1]
They say when a door closes, a window opens
I guess that’s kind of what happened with us.
One friendship bond was ending,
While another bond was forming.

[Verse 2}
Like all friends do, we had our fights.
One lasted a couple years until one night.
You decided to reconnect,
Saying you’re in town, let’s hang out.

[Chorus]
You’re my brother, my best friend, the only one I turn to
I say we’re one big family, a place I call my home
For you, I’d move mountains, cross rivers wide and deep
Not all family is bound by blood, some bonds we choose to keep

[Verse 3]
I’ve been there for you through the heartache.
I was happy when you found your one, no mistake.
Proud to be the best man during your wedding day.
I’ll be here until we’re old and grey.

[Chorus]
You’re my brother, my best friend, the only one I turn to
I say we’re one big family, a place I call my home
For you, I’d move mountains, cross rivers wide and deep
Not all family is bound by blood, some bonds we choose to keep

[Bridge]
I’m not always the best at expressing how I feel.
I hope within this song it lets you know.
It’s where I stand, it’s where I am,
And always will be.

[Chorus]
You’re my brother, my best friend, the only one I turn to
I say we’re one big family, a place I call my home
For you, I’d move mountains, cross rivers wide and deep
Not all family is bound by blood, some bonds we choose to keep
