Family ties start in a home
Gargle up deeper than blood,
skin and bone
Stronger than sunshine
and older than Rome
Invisible family ties
It's raining Manchester February
I miss the hot days and
the crisp clean nights
I like working here but
not checking out flights
To renovate those family ties
As the years pass the family grows
The circle it rides like rings in a pool
How large it will get, nobody knows
But the wider the stronger, that is the rule
My brother who runs a
cafe in London
Writes, I'm happy and
settled in Camden
Speaks a new tongue,
but he'll never abandon
All of those family ties
My daughter has settled
with kids in Vienna
Once every year she re turns to Siena
To share her contrada and
always remember
Unbreakable family ties
As the years pass, as the family grows
The circle it widens like rings in a pool
How large it will get, nobody knows
But the wider the stronger,
that is the rule
As the years pass, the family grows
The circling white inside brings in a clue
How large it will get, nobody knows
But the whiter, stronger, that is the rule
My uncle and sister,
who we don't mention
Nearly a year has been held in detention
One of our kin, but beyond redemption
Still we have family ties
Family ties start in the home
Got a love deeper than blood,
skin and bone
Stronger than Samson
and older than Rome
Invisible family ties
As the years pass, as the family grows,
The circle it widens like rings in a pool,
How large it will get, nobody knows,
The wider the stronger, that is the rule.
As the years pass, as the family grows,
The circle it widens like rings in a pool,
How large it will get?
Nobody knows
But the wider the stronger
That is the rule as they get
As the family grows
The circle gets wider
Not ready to prove
How large it will get?
Nobody knows
But the wider the stronger
That is the rule you
