Unknown Brother Lyrics

Though I never met you
And we spoke not a word
Ill never forget you
From the stories Ive heard
For you unknown brother
My baby's mothers pain
Cause your soul is in heaven
But your memory remains

Unknown
Unknown brother
Ill meet you...

    obviously this song is not about abortion if he speaks of the childs bright eyes and about how his sister loved him and all that he did. How can they have seen his eyes and loved what he did if he was aborted or miscarried?!

    Miscarriage, abortion, and stillbirth.
