Grandfathers are here to tell you about what happened before you were born

 

Grandmothers are here to make you laugh when you can’t even smile

Grandmothers are here to teach you the lessons she had learn on her own

 

Mothers are here to be there when you arrive

Mothers are here to pick you up when you’re down

Mothers are here to wipe your tears away

 

Fathers are here to spin you around when you’re stuck on the ground

Fathers are here to wipe away tears from a broken heart

Fathers are here to hug you when you can’t stand

Fathers are here to lean on when you get dizzy

 

Sisters are here to tease you

Sisters are here to give advice

Sisters are here to make you smile when you’re about to cry

Sisters are here to wipe the stupid tears away

Sisters are here to give you strength

 

Brothers are here to lock you out

Brothers are here to toughen your skin

Brothers are here to beat up the guys that break your heart

Brothers are here to hug you when your fish runs away

Brothers are here to talk to you when they need advice

Brothers are here to tell you what’s what until you can figure it out on your own
