Drew Holcomb & The Neighbors - 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 spinning like a carousel I had to take a vacation to the wishing well To pound on the drums and ring all the bells Sisters, brothers, fathers, mothers We've got to stand up for each other Sisters, brothers, fathers, mothers We've got to fight for one another There were promises made and debts were paid We tell ourselves we are not afraid Fear only goes where it's invited to stay An eclectic, electric, hopeless romantic Telling tall tales to keep your interest Trying to understand the lonely heart of man Sisters, brothers, fathers, mothers We've got to stand up for each other Sisters, brothers, fathers, mothers We've got to fight for one another Life's not a joke, not a cloud of smoke It's not to be mocked, it's a ticking clock Counting the days living on borrowed time Sisters, brothers, fathers, mothers We've got to stand up for each other Sisters, brothers, fathers, mothers We've got to fight for one another
