Analysis of Just Between Brothers



We grew up together, and have not grown apart,
We both had dreams to follow, and our own families to start.
Two comrades in crime, on this you could depend,
When one was in trouble, the other would defend.
Our lives have become different, some dreams yet to be found,
Yet all of the secrets we shared, are still solidly bound.
Together we've laughed, and together we've cried,
Through all of life's trials, we've stood side by side.
So down life's road we'll travel, from Beginning to end,
Not only as brothers, but each others best friend.
The love that we have, is like no other,
It's a love that is shared, Just Between Brothers.
