Lyrics

"My Brother's Wife"
by Eric Kaye

Well, I know, we can't have everything
The things we want and the things we get are often never quite the same
It's a fact of life I can't get used to, a part of life I despise
And its twice as bad when what you cant have is right before your eyes

I saw her walking down the aisle, Looking like the Queen of Denial
A goddess fully dressed in white, man, I never saw a more beautiful sight
And she's gonna be his tonight

I want her, I want her, I want her, I want her
But I can't have her, she's my brother's wife
I want her, I want her, I want her, I want her
But I can't have her, she's my sis for life

Well they look so cute together at the family affairs
When I see them holdin' hands and kiss, it's more than I can bear
If she'd just give me a chance, I'd know what to do
Cause I taught him everything he knows, you know that it's true

The bible says its a sin, But Lord only knows the shape I'm in
Maybe if she only knew, She'd say she wants me too
What am I gonna do?

I want her, I want her, I want her, I want her
But I can't have her, she's my brother's wife
I want her, I want her, I want her, I want her
But I can't have her, she's my sis for life
