25 to Life
25 to Life is what he said he'd be doing when he left here
Oh when he left here
I recall that day on the corner when they took my brother away
He showed no fear, oh he showed no fear
By and by, he was on my side, and only on him could I rely
He was younger, oh but tough as steel
Well, she fell in love with the wrong one
Little did I know what it'd cost us
We wouldn't heal, no we wouldn't heal
Broken dreams on mended seams
It don't last long by any means
You've gotta hold on to what you've got
Wasted years, I'm fighting fears, I've held onto all my tears
Oh honey, that's all I've got
Some say sweet, I say naive, oh he wore his heart out on his sleeve
He was tender, but not afraid to bleed
Couldn't bear the pain in his mind
Oh, it caught up with him over time
I was losing him, but I was blind
Broken dreams on mended seams
It don't last long by any means
You've gotta hold on to what you've got
Wasted years, I'm fighting fears, I've held onto all my tears
Oh honey, that's all I've got
Well she fell in love with the wrong on
Little did I know what it cost us, we wouldn't heal
No we wouldn't heal
Broken dreams on mended seams
It don't last long by any means
You've gotta hold on to what you've got
Wasted years, I'm fighting fears, I've held onto all my tears
Oh honey, that's all I've got
25 to Life is what he said he'd be doing when he left here
Oh when he left here
Oh when he left here
I recall that day on the corner when they took my brother away
He showed no fear, oh he showed no fear
By and by, he was on my side, and only on him could I rely
He was younger, oh but tough as steel
Well, she fell in love with the wrong one
Little did I know what it'd cost us
We wouldn't heal, no we wouldn't heal
Broken dreams on mended seams
It don't last long by any means
You've gotta hold on to what you've got
Wasted years, I'm fighting fears, I've held onto all my tears
Oh honey, that's all I've got
Some say sweet, I say naive, oh he wore his heart out on his sleeve
He was tender, but not afraid to bleed
Couldn't bear the pain in his mind
Oh, it caught up with him over time
I was losing him, but I was blind
Broken dreams on mended seams
It don't last long by any means
You've gotta hold on to what you've got
Wasted years, I'm fighting fears, I've held onto all my tears
Oh honey, that's all I've got
Well she fell in love with the wrong on
Little did I know what it cost us, we wouldn't heal
No we wouldn't heal
Broken dreams on mended seams
It don't last long by any means
You've gotta hold on to what you've got
Wasted years, I'm fighting fears, I've held onto all my tears
Oh honey, that's all I've got
25 to Life is what he said he'd be doing when he left here
Oh when he left here
