Brother Sister - The Brand New Heavies

Don’t let your young life get you down

It always had a certain mystery

Many changes come to everyone

About the time that they turn seventeen

Grandma said at times you’ll feel a sting

There’ll be sharp turns and uphills and closed doors

Then she said hold onto your faith

'Cause in this world you’ve got to go and get yours

So you stand up Be strong go out there

Hold on to the real thing that matter

'Cause no one’s gonna hand it to you on a silver platter

There’s no need to feel you’re on your own

Just let your intuition guide you through

Take one step toward what you believe

Don’t be afraid to make your move

In my head those words remind me what

Grandma said — at times you’ll feel a sting

There’ll be sharp turns and uphills and closed doors

Then she said hold on to your faith

Don’t be scared go out there

Stand up Be strong go out there

Hold on To the real things that matter

'Cause no one’s gonna hand’em to you

On a silver platter

Just stand up Be strong go out there

Hold on To the real things that matter

'Cause no one’s gonna hand 'em to you

On a silver platter

Don’t be scared go out there

Just stand up my brother sister

Hold on To the real things that matter

'Cause no one’s gonna hand it to you

On a silver platter

Stand up my brother sister

Hold on to the real things that matter

'Cause no one’s gonna hand 'em to you

On a silver platter
