OH BROTHER OF MINE

Oh, brother of mine,
Seems we became lost
in time.
Faces fading in memories'
eyes.
Oh, brother of mine.
I tried to knock on your
door.
Many years ago....before.
Now the age has come.
Time beats the drum.
Oh, brother of mine.

Are you the same soul
I knew?
So many colors and hues?
Is there a sadness on your
face,
No one can erase?
Oh, brother of mine.

I never left this place.
Still abiding in this sister's
space.
People crowding my mind,
Let's go back in time.
Oh, brother of mine.

We'll run in the night,
Chasing those fiery flies.
Laughter will come.
Time beats the drum.
Oh, brother of mine.
You are at my heart's door.
Just as always before.
Reach out to me,
Set your soul free.
Oh, brother of mine.
