Hey Little Brother

Yeah

whoa

whoa

when we were growing up

i said a lot of things that i didn't mean

i tried to make you tough

but instead i left you crying and lonely

with the heart that's beating

inside of you

it's too good to be true

you're more beautiful than anything i've seen

hey little brother

i was cruel and mean to you

but hey little brother

i need to say i love you

i just want you to know that

want you to know that

want you to know that

i just want you to know that

want you to know that

want you to know that

when we were little

i did a lot of things

that i regret now

i was your hero

i always found a way to hurt you somehow

but the man you've grown up

and you have become

since you were young

(i'm blown away)

you're more beautiful

than anything i've seen

hey little brother

i was cruel and mean to you

but hey little brother

i need to say i love you

i just want you to know that

want you to know that

want you to know that

i just want you to know that

want you to know that

want you to know that

yeah

whoa

whoa

yeah

and the tables have turned now

i'm wishing i could be like you

hey little brother

i just want you to know

i'm so proud

i'm so proud of you

so hey little brother

i was cruel and mean to you

but hey little brother

i need to say i love you

i just want you to know that

want you to know that

want you to know that

i just want you to know that

want you to know that

want you to know

kiddo
