about

Mark Stanley 'Brother'

lyrics

Brother why do you look so strong through my eyes
The cooling in my bones sinks slowly
Storming my selfish pride
Instead you left with nothing but fortune in your heart
Took it out West and made the best of it
Trying for a brand new start

But ooh I've been waiting
For you to come and take my hand

And be my brother, my brother
My brother, brother

The barren salts feel lonely dry as the Colorado recedes
A fickle man has only so much strength to count
And so much soul to plead
Down the road from virtue freedom could not be here
But there's an everlasting statue
Of my brother with no fear

But ooh i'll be waiting
For you to come and take my hand

And be my brother, my brother
My brother, brother

A shadow dressed in winter covered us all in black
My thoughts became like splinters
And they only hold me back
I wonder what he needed but i was too afraid to ask
An empty shack in the wilderness
Full of everything I lack

But ooh i'll be waiting
For you to come and take my hand

And be my brother, my brother
My brother, brother

My brother, my brother
My brother i've been waiting
My brother, my brother
My brother i've been waiting
