Big Brother

At first I cried a teardrop, But then I cried a sea,
Then I took you in my arms and held you close to me,
The doctors said you'd gone, But I'd never let you go,
You'll always be with me in my heart though you'll never show,
You'll be in my every word, As you'll be in my every breathe,
And I will never forget you because of a little thing like death.

I see your face is darkness, I see your face in light,
I see your face when I wake up and I see it every night,
I see your eyes in my eyes, I see your nose as my own,
I see you in my face, In me you are shown,
I feel your love in my heart, I feel our bond grow,
I feel your smile that cheers me up, whenever I feel low.

My great older brother, I always miss you so,
But I know you've left me now, I knew you had to go,
I felt you leave my body, I watched you soar up high,
And then I stood there crying as you soared up to the sky,
My brother I'll always love you, I knew why you had to stay,
To check that I was coping and now you know it's all OK.

My brother you always watch me, I can feel you looking down,
I know you see my every tear, And try to stop my every frown,
I know you still look out for me, I know you make sure I'm alright,
I know that you enter my dreams, each and everynight,
I know that you some times hug me, And think that I don't see,
But I do big brother,I do,
I see that you're with me.
