Hey, remember when I stole dad’s credit card?
God, I was such a shit at seventeen
You told me it was crazy still I ordered that guitar
and the xbox, and and the eighty-inch flatscreen
and it’s wasn’t pretty when mom found out
but you being, well, you - of course you came through
and you said somebody must’ve hacked into dad’s account,
then you got up and made a call, reversed the charges, returned it all,
We were only kids but you already knew
How to make it right
you’ve always had a way of
showing up to save the day
when I least deserve it,
You make it right
Every stupid thing I’ve done
You’ve had this super power, this second sight,
To take the mess I’ve made and make it right
Or what about the time I had a whim and spent
A summer getting drunk in Monterrey (oops!)
Just didn’t go to work and I was three months late on rent,
but when I got back, somehow all my bills were paid
And I know you’d never admit you wrote that note to my fiancee, after I walked away
Saying I was sorry, and all the reasons I had to go
You know I’ve started losing count
Of all the times that you’ve bailed me out
‘Cause even when I run, I know you’ll stay
And you’ll make it right
You’ve always had a knack for
for knowing how to have my back
when I don’t deserve it,
You make it right
Every selfish stunt I’ve pulled
Here comes your super power, your second sight
To take the mess I’ve made and make it right
And I don’t know what’s wrong with me,
Why is it so hard to thank you?
I’ve taken for granted the fact you’ll always be there
Saving me from myself when I don’t know how to
Little brother, I don’t know what I would do without you
The nurse just left, she said that you’ve been out for quite a while
So I don’t know if you’re listening to me
The doctors aren’t sure if you’re responding to the trial
I guess we’ll wait and see
But I can’t help feeling
Now it’s my turn to fix this for you
But I don’t know what to do
Waiting for an answer, or some sign that I still might learn
the magic words I'm supposed to say, to make this go away
I swear there’s nothing that I wouldn’t do
If I only knew
How to make it right
Take your burden, make it mine
It should be my life on the line
God knows I deserve it
You’d make it right
If it were me there in that bed
There isn’t any battle you wouldn’t fight
Well I don’t have your superpower, no second sight,
But I’ll stay right here
As many days and nights
As it takes
To make it right
