Song of Solomon 8:1 - The Message

I wish you’d been my twin brother, sharing with me the breasts of my mother,
Playing outside in the street,
   kissing in plain view of everyone,
   and no one thinking anything of it.
I’d take you by the hand and bring you home
   where I was raised by my mother.
You’d drink my wine
   and kiss my cheeks.
