Brother

Brother, why'd you have to go?
You left us all so soon
Remember that song I wrote
About your family years ago?
Well, they're waiting for you to come home.

What I do? What do I say?
And dad tells me to pray,
So I've prayed and prayed.
But the hurt won't go away.

The pain gets worse it never stops,
And I've asked The Lord for us to swap
I begged him please
Cause you have kids to feed

Why is it always stormy weather?
And brother, tell me if it all gets better?
Why did you leave? Why did you die?
You finally made your brother cry.

I know you are watching over us tonight..
And I hope you're watching over us tonight.

I'm sorry, I missed your call
I wasn't there for you at all.
And know I thought it through
Maybe if I answered you
That you would still be here, all along.

Now no more calls, can't you see?
I took for granted family
And once their gone you'll never get that back.

No more laughs, no more hugs
So hold on to the ones you love
Your soul is free, I love you Anthony!

And why is it always stormy weather?
And brother, tell me if it all gets better?
Why did you leave? Why did you die?
You finally made your brother cry
I know you are watching over from above.

So hold on to the ones you love.
