Lyrics

Your baby's born He looks like you Ain't that a miracle, my friend Today you know All things were possible again, whoa... And it's so good Workin' the way it should 'Cause you can't You can't break that family love affair And they're so real All of the things you feel Oh, you can't You can't shake that family love affair No, you can't You're hand in hand You won't let go 'Cause you've got someone on your side, mm-hmm And we all know That life is good when love is right And what love has joined together May it never fall apart Just be there for each other Care for each other with all your heart In this world of instant coffee People want that instant love But isn't love what you make it Reciprocated Nothin' less You'll be blessed It's so good Workin' the way it should 'Cause you can't You can't break that family love affair And it's so real All of the things you feel Oh, you can't You can't shake that family love affair, whoo! If things get rough Try it again, try it again Keep looking up, try it again No, don't stop now Try it again, try it again You'll work it out, try it again And what love has joined together May it never fall apart Just be there for each other Care for each other with all your heart In this world of instant coffee People want that instant love But isn't love what you make it Reciprocated Nothin' less You'll be blessed It's so good Workin' the way it should Oh, you can't You can't shake that family love affair And they're so real All of the things you feel Oh, you can't Oh, you can't shake that family love affair Brother to brother (You can't break that family love affair) Sister to sister (You can't shake that family affair) Father to mother (You can't break that) (You can't shake that family affair) It's a family thing It's a family thing Why is it the ones that are so close Seem to be the ones you hurt the most I guess 'cause it's a family thing And even if your heart feels the pain It doesn't mean that love can stand the strain It's a family thing, yeah
