my own

if you were my father

if you were my own

you would speak

all the wisdom known

if you were my mother

any problem that comes

you would fix

and leave it better when you're done

and i would cry for reasons

i won't tell anyone

if you were my sister

you'd already know

everything that's ever made me low

low

and you would tell me words that'd heal

anything i broke

oooooooooo

if you were my brother

even though i've none

you would still

protect me when i'm grown

grown

and you would make this place

feel a little more like home
