Brother At Five Years Old

[Verse 1]
You held my hand when I was five
Didn’t know then how you’d shape my life
Cartoons on
You’d let me steal your fries
You’d say “I got you” every time I cried
[Verse 2]
Years rolled on
We both grew up
Still you showed when the road got rough
On the line or right there by my side
You’d pick up on the very first try
[Chorus]
God gave me a brother like you at five years old for a reason
Knew that I would need you through every changing season
You were there when I had my first baby
Holding me steady
Making me brave
One of the best big brothers in the world
You’re the answer to the prayers I didn’t know how to pray
[Bridge]
From scraped knees to sleepless nights
You’ve been my constant
My quiet light
If I had to live this life again
I’d still choose you as my first best friend
[Chorus]
God gave me a brother like you at five years old for a reason
Knew that I would need you through every changing season
You were there when I had my first baby
Holding me steady
Making me brave
One of the best big brothers in the world
You’re the answer to the prayers I didn’t know how to pray

Warm midtempo pop ballad with acoustic guitar and soft piano, subtle shaker and relaxed drums; male or female vocals deliver intimate story verses that build into a soaring, harmony-laced chorus. Bridge strips to guitar and voice for a heartfelt moment before a final, fuller chorus with light pads and a gentle, lingering outro., world
