Can't stay the same, think that everything
Gonna change around you (brothers and sisters)
Not too far down the wrong road
To turn around (brothers and sisters)
Gotta find a way not to fade away

We belong to each other
Brothers and sisters (brothers and sisters)
So be strong for each other
Brothers and sisters (brothers and sisters)
Got to be brave in a scary world
Brothers and sisters (brothers and sisters)

Too far to be lost (brothers and sisters)
So many bridges
Yet, oh, yet to cross (brothers and sisters)
I'm waiting on you
Like a message from God (brothers and sisters)
