[Verse 1]
We knew we were special growing up,
Shared the same room, shared the same face.
Even in a house full of brothers,
We had our own kind of place.
When Mom called out, "Where are the boys?"
We never had to wonder who she meant.
The whole world knew us as the twins,
A title better than money ever spent.
[Chorus]
We were the boys, side by side,
Running through those younger years.
Shoulder to shoulder, back to back,
Through laughter, trouble, dreams, and tears.
More than two kids growing tall,
We were a team from the very start.
And I'll always say my childhood was the best,
Because my twin brother shared every part.
[Verse 2]
We went everywhere together,
To the swimming pool and friends' backyards.
Watched television late at night,
Turned ordinary days into adventures large.
People stopped and stared sometimes,
Just because we looked the same.
But being twins was more than faces,
It was a bond no words could fully name.
[Chorus]
We were the boys, side by side,
Running through those younger years.
Shoulder to shoulder, back to back,
Through laughter, trouble, dreams, and tears.
More than two kids growing tall,
We were a team from the very start.
And I'll always say my childhood was the best,
Because my twin brother shared every part.
[Verse 3]
If one of us was in a corner,
The other somehow found a way.
We may have lost a fight alone,
But together we never gave away a day.
Nobody could break that partnership,
Nobody could pull us far apart.
Two sets of hands, one stubborn will,
And one unshakable heart.
[Chorus]
We were the boys, side by side,
Running through those younger years.
Shoulder to shoulder, back to back,
Through laughter, trouble, dreams, and tears.
More than two kids growing tall,
We were a team from the very start.
And I'll always say my childhood was the best,
Because my twin brother shared every part.
[Bridge]
Now the years have rolled like rivers,
And those little boys are gone.
The model ships and airplanes faded,
The toy wars carried on in memory alone.
But I can still see that space between our beds,
Covered with kingdoms built upon the floor.
And for a little while we're children again,
Dreaming up battles and so much more.
[Final Chorus]
We were the boys, side by side,
Growing up beneath the same sky.
Learning how to stand our ground,
Learning how to laugh and try.
Life may carry us different roads,
But time can't change what we were then.
I'll always think I had the best childhood ever,
Because I got to share it with my twin.
[Outro]
Shared the same room, shared the same face,
Shared a thousand ordinary days.
And looking back across the years,
Those ordinary days were the greatest days
