Brother Lyrics

He grew and drew and you smiled
He built a glider in our living room,
Taught my brother to fly
He was smart
He was beautiful to you
To me
That’s why we couldn’t bear it
Though he’d never share it,
We heard him cry himself to sleep.

Chorus:
How His hands move
How the wheel turns
How clay softens
How exquisite

He left, you never stopped aching
He married, you gave disappointed congratulations He was twice a father, two lovely daughters
And you glowed
You glow.
Until again, he will be a father
And you took a walk that night
You cried, “He’s unprepared!”
And you were scared,
So you took a walk that night
But his sister knows in her heart it will be all right

His sister knows in her heart it will be all right
And I do.
I know in my heart it will be all right.

Chorus x2
