Hey Brother Songtext / Lyric

Hey brother

get yourself together

don't you wait

Can't you see

i'm waiting in the shadows

to take your place?

There is a chance

that i'll keep tryin'

to tell you the truth

but end up lyin' to you

You said you were late

and i planned my escape

such a happy thing

just another one of my mistakes

So you held your breath

and you cursed the west

said you had no choice

you're moving back east where men are men

Your mother never had a reason to hesitate

now you're waiting for a warmer welcome in colder states

You said you were late

and i planned my escape

such a happy thing

just another one of my mistakes

So you held your breath

and you cursed the west

said you had no choice

you're moving back east where men are men

Love's got no border

why don't you feel free

to cross my state line

and bring yourself to me?

It's a hell of a struggle

been grounded for years

the words that i use up to, oh

for your ears
