about

a song about a friend who was like a brother

lyrics

dear brother
where is the one i knew before
the stars are gone from your eyes
i've seen a brighter smile
cross your lips so long ago
i dream that i might have you back

you're hazy-eyed again my friend
it seems you've forgotten those vows we swore in youth
well i know that you've seen a lot in your life
just know i would die to take it all back for you

and i miss the way we talked of everything
laughed at everyone
but i can't find the humor in losing my best friend
i heard that time changes hearts
but yours got a jump-start
and i've been trying to keep up
but you keep leaving me behind

you think you're only hurting yourself
oh brother if you only knew
we've been watching you sink in deeper
we've been hoping you'd see it for yourself
i should have known it would not get better
[can] i blame myself
dear brother
