I actually do shed a tear when I hear it.

The thought of that little boy wanting so desperately to make his sister happy again.

The nostalgia of his remembering those nights when he would sit and watch as his sister arrived at home and chaos would ensue.

The thought of his sister and what happened to her. The thought that they wanted to remember her and honor her.

Family. The song is about family.
