lyrics

I took the train to see you
Stepped off the platform maybe 4 or 5 years later than you asked me to
You came along at a time my life was changing
Maybe a hundred times faster than I wanted to

All these visions of our goodbyes
Live in here in my mind forever

I owed you a letter
So I’ll give you this song
Thank you for being a brother
Even though the house we would live in is gone

The face of God comes sometimes when I am listening
To the people who breathe music like it’s oxygen
I see that in your eyes everytime they’re passing mine
But it’s hard to make the words fly right in between them

All these visions of our goodbyes
Live in here in my mind forever

I owed you a letter
So I’ll give you this song
Thank you for being a brother
Even though the house we would live in is gone

I owed you a letter
So I’ll give you this song
Thank you for being my brother
Thank you for being a brother
Even though the house we would live in is gone
Even though
Even though
Even though...
