Brother
This song is about losing a brother.
When I finished the lyrics to this song I realized “Brother” is a term of endearment men often use when they feel bonded to a member of a group they belong to, someone they shared time with in the armed forces, even a close friend. Although this song was written with a specific Brother in mind it could apply to anyone you consider to be your Brother.
The story in this song is a simple conversation with a brother who is greatly missed.
The first verse is about disbelief. He can’t believe his Brother is really gone.
The second verse describes the pain he feels in his Brother’s absence and tells him they will hug again some day but not yet. In verse three he comes to grips with the loss of his Brother. He still can’t believe he’s gone but he knows he is in a better place.
The chorus for this song recently took a turn in a better direction. Thx Steve Marinaccio (Green Chapel Studios) We repositioned a few words from a fourth verse which no longer exists and dramatically change the vocal inflections. The chorus is the real power behind the song but still stays on point with the story line. The chorus message is “I know you’re watching over me. I can feel you by my side”
LYRICS
"Brother"
Brother doesn't seem that long ago
Brother you’re all I need cause you know
You’re my brother, you were my heart my home
and I still feel you deep down in my soul
Brother all the memories kept inside
oh brother I can feel you by my side
Brother I'm gonna stay a while
Brother wish you could see what I've got
I miss you brother you’re on my mind- woooah
The thing I'd wish for is to have more time
Brother all the memories kept inside
Oh Brother I can feel you by my side
Brother you were so many things to me
Oh Brother you've got wings and now you’re free
Brother you didn't want to leave
Bother you wouldn’t want me to grieve
Where are you brother, are you with friends and family
I know you’re gone but I still can’t believe
Chorus 2X
