Baby sister
Hug me so tight
Afraid I'll leave
And not come back for you
Be just like me, you are
I am your idol they say
And I try hard not to disappoint
For I can't bear the thought
Of hurting your young heart

Little brother
Make a heart with your hands
And hold it up to the window for me
You want my attention
Call out my name
In your childlike voice
I promise to always answer
Because I cannot let you grow up
Without know how much I care
