lyrics

I know that you were ready, brother.
Your course was set and steady, brother.
I know you’d do great, brother.
I know that I’m late, but brother
Wait for me to say what I’m thinking.

Even the slightest of winds
Put in your back
Would carry you in

Those times it blows in your face,
Close your eyes.
You don’t have to play,
But please stay.

It feels like you’re sinking, brother.
I know what you’re thinking, brother.
How badly you want to be drinking, brother.
I know that you’ve been shrinking, brother.
How does that make you feel?
Tell me ‘bout your mother.

Even the slightest of winds
Put in your back
Would carry you in

Those times it blows in your face,
Close your eyes.
You don’t have to play,
But please stay.
