For My Brother

Trying

to reach you

foamy waves draw us apart

and you aren't here right now

but you are still in my heart

Can't say the words

you want to hear

because i've been there before

Babe, i'll stand by you

even when it starts to pour

Yes it will be hard

But babe be brave

For me, baby, try

to not be swallowed up in the wave
