Take me back to way back when....to hopes and dreams of lets pretend.
  To a childhood were I knew nothing else,
but that you were as much a part of me...as I was of myself.
I never even imagined a day without you and what I would do.
Because In my eyes there was no me without you.
  What ever the pleasure no matter the trouble,
We never did it alone cause we each had our double.
  Together we would co-conspire
to try and fulfil what ever our hearts might desire.
  What ever one of us was doing the other would try,
if one of us got hurt the other would cry.
  I you were laughing I knew it was funny,
who ever came for a show got two for their money.
  Together we were brave enough to try any thing
we never knew what adventure the new day would bring.
  Sure,there were times we'd fight and fuss.
But I pitty the fool who ever crossed one of us.
  People sometimes couldn't even tell us apart,
it was easy for me...I knew you by heart.
  Singing and laughing and all the fun things we did,
Then you had to go and become a big kid.
Your first day of school thats when I knew,
the days of me and you were through.
You were so excited getting ready and I was trying to understand.
It came time to go- big brother took you by the hand.
  My eyes welled with tears wondering what I would do,
I watched and waved from the window     till you were long out of view.
Then I wrapped my arms around mom's legs who was right there by my side.
We both laughed then when we noticed that the other also cried.
