Brother (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Ramblers in the wilderness we can’t find what we need
Get a little restless from the searching
Get a little worn down in between
Like a bull chasing the matador is the man left to his own schemes
Everybody needs someone beside em’ shining like a lighthouse from the sea

Brother let me be your shelter
I’ll never leave you all alone
I can be the one you call
When you’re low
Brother let me be your fortress
When the night winds are driving on
Be the one to light the way
Bring you home

Face down in the desert now there’s a cage locked around my heart
I found a way to drop the keys where my failures were
Now my hands can’t reach that far
I ain’t made for a rivalry I could never take the world alone
I know that in my weakness I am strong, but
It’s your love that brings me home

Brother let me be your shelter
I’ll never leave you all alone
I can be the one you call
When you’re low
Brother let me be your fortress
When the night winds are driving on
Be the one to light the way
Bring you home

And when you call and need me near
Sayin’ where’d you go?
Brother I’m right here
And on those days when the sky begins to fall
You’re the blood of my blood
We can get through it all

Brother let me be your shelter
I’ll never leave you all alone
I can be the one you call
When you’re feelin’ low
Brother let me be your fortress
When the night winds are driving on
Be the one to light the way
Bring you home

Brother let me be your shelter
I’ll never leave you all alone
I can be the one you call
When you’re low
Brother let me be your fortress
When the night winds are driving on
Be the one to light the way
Bring you home
Be the one to light the way
Bring you home

Brother (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

When it’s all said and done
And you’re a little worse for wear
And it hurts having someone take care of you

Never let you go
Never let you go
Even when the madness has broken you apart
I used to believe
That all the absence of color
Would make a difference to my red, red heart
But my perspective has changed
Since I drove you away
But baby everybody’s gotta move
Everyone’s gotta move sometimes
And I won’t see it
Even if I know it’s there
Never let you go
Never let you go
Even when the madness has broken you apart
But I’ll never let you know
I’ll never, I’ll never
But I’ll never let you know
I’ll never let you know
I used to be free
Of any fear of emotion
But these skeletons got ways of coming out
I used to believe
That someday you’d see
That baby you got devotion in every little motion

And I won’t see the storm
When the rain’s coming down
Never let you go
Never let you go
Even when the madness has broken you apart
Even when the madness has broken you apart

But I’ll never let you know
I’ll never, I’ll never
But I’ll never let you know
I’ll never let you know

I will wait
For the day you come home
And it hurts to see you all over again
Never ever let you go
Never let you go
Even when the madness has broken you apart

We had howl

We had run around
In the summer in the nighttime
We made no sound
And deep in the forest we get lost
Whistle to the birds as they call
Go on trips
Moving with weather as it shifts
We took to the seas and let it drift
How many islands could we hear?

I’d follow you
To the end of the world if only you would ask me to
On and on we go, my brother
I’ve got you
Nothing to stop us now
Because we found in life what’s true
Oh, my brother I’d follow you

In my faded truck
We shot across the country to find our luck
And the youth inside would scream and shout
Like a dagger in the heart we ripped it out

And we had laugh through the night
Call the star’s
By the fire shining on
Through the night
We will run
To the rising life and on
Through the night
Burn the flames
The world will know our names

And I’d follow you
To the end of the world if only you would ask me to
On and on we go, my brother
I’ve got you
Nothing to stop us now
Because we found in life what’s true
Oh, my brother I’d follow you

I’d follow you
To the end of the world if only you would ask me to
On and on we go, my brother
I’ve got you
Nothing to stop us now
Because we found in life what’s true
And I will follow you!

Lyrics by: glen phillips

I find my brother in there
Deep in my heart
I find my brother in there
Hold in my arms
I love you
And if i seem too quiet now
There are no words
To tell you how
I love you

I often feel
Like the prodigal son
Take all i need
Giving back none
Our beauty shows
In such different ways
You’re like the light behind the fog
So soft
But still you burn my eyes away

I find my brother in there
Deep in my heart
I find my brother in there
Hold in my arms
I love you
And if i seem too quiet now
There are no words to show you how
I love you

So much has changed
And so much has happened these years
But still i find that you
Are waiting here
We have a bond
That nothing can change
And still i find
A peace of mind
Whenever i hear your name

And if i seem too quiet now
There are no words to show you how
I love you

Whoa!whoa!whoa!

Brother (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

You should be happy with what you got…
You should be hard to be a brother…
You should be happy with what we give you…

Hand over my face. I am related to my enemy.
My house on fire,
And my big brother come put the blame on me.

He’s a-pushin’…I’m being pushed from above.
Oh, and a brother, back to back to back,
Better back off of him.

You should not questioh at all his authority…

Use a flag as a bandage.
Stick ‘em up, show us your pocket hypocrisy.
In the closet, my pleasures
‘Cause my big brother don’t want to just let me be.

Oh, and I’m pushin’…oh if I could get above…
Oh, and a brother back to back back,
Keep your back off.
Oh, and I’m pushin’…I’m being pushed from above.
Oh, and a brother, back to back to back,
Better back off of him…

Face down…brother…
Face down… [3X]

In my mind there’s a clearing.
Black clouds flow through grey still skies.
And the birds don’t even whisper.
I’m flying out…I’m flying…

Back to back back, better back off…
Back to back to back, a better, better, better…
Back to back to back, back to back back…brother…
Face down…brother…
Face down…
Face down…brother…
Face down…almost…fired…
Face down…I got a gun…
Face down…
I got a gun…I got a gun…
Face down…I got a gun…
Face down…

Aah, fuck it, I’m just gonna go home, turn on the fuckin’ TV…
Watch the nightly news and drink a beer…
Like I could even change the world, yeah right…

[Verse 1:]

When we were young,
Life was so unjust,
At times I felt it was just us,
Mama working hard to put food on the table.
All on her own she sacrificed,
Even when my sisters and brothers died,
Some how she stayed strong,
I never saw her cry.
I was the oldest and responsibility was so immense,
The tension,
We’d disagree,
So I left, at the time I felt she hated me.
Told me to be strong,
Told me to hang on,
Hugged Me tight,
And said “Big Sister It’ll be alright”…

[Chorus:]

Brother, I love ya,
Little brother,
I thank God for ya every day,
Little Brother,
I Love Ya,
And I pray he’ll never take you away.

[Verse 2:]

When my soul withered and I lived in the dark,
An emptiness it filled my heart.
U Never stopped holdin’ me,
Never stopped tryin’ to open me up.
The days and nights I spent stressin’,
The years I spent In depression,
This is my confession.
Thought about ending it sometimes,
But the second you crossed my mind,
I knew, I could never leave you.
Made me believe,
You set me free,
To this day, all I say and do, I owe it all to you.

[Repeat Chorus]

[Verse 3:]

Ooh,
I would lie for you,
Cry for you,
Ride or die for you,
Touch the sky for you,
If you asked me to
There’s nothin I wont do
I took this life for joke
I would drink or smoke
To ease away the pain
And forget the memories up in my brain
But you helped me to stop the rain
Oh brother brother…

Brother (Letra)

Brother are you really here?
The package i received is gone
Are you a phantom detective
Can you read my soul backwards?
I will glide with you
If you are a backwards ghost
I will hire you

Brother are you really home
Holy as a blessed worm
Paradise ambassador; bring me to your room
And i will throw you rocks today
"watch them pass right through" you say
"this is not a game or test
We both have done some grievin’"

Brother with your vast reward
Treasury who can’t afford
Surgeries in innocence abounds
And i have read in paper books
My eyes are glands on twisted hooks
Never have i felt or looked
So sorry for you now

Brother are you trained to spy
One eye open, one eye dry?
When i die will you be my neighbor?
Tell me things i’d like to know
Dress it up from head to toe
Let them know to and fro,
From here and tomorrow

Brother are you really here?
The message i received is gone
Are you a phantom detective?
Can you read my soul backwards?
I will glide with you
If you are a backwards ghost
I will hire you

I’ve got to tell you something
You may just disagree
But always time
If you’re in need of assistance
Hold on to me
On to me
This season change your sanity
I’d help you on your feet
On your feet.
Oh brother
My brother’s gone
Oh brother
My brother’s gone
I wanna show you something
Just put your trust in me
Trust in me
I shout and scream and i try
You turn your face from me
You just turn away from me
Oh brother
My brother’s gone
Hold on to me
Oh brother
My brother’s gone
Hold on to me
Oh brother
My brother’s gone
My brother’s gone
My brother’s gone
My brother’s gone

Frozen in the place i hide
Not afraid to paint my sky with
Some who say i’ve lost my mind
Brother try and hope to find

You were always so far away
I know that pain so don’t you run away
Like you used to do

Roses in a vase of white
Bloodied by the thorns beside the leaves
That fall because my hand is
Pulling them hard as i can

You were always so far away
I know that pain and i won’t run away
Like i used to do

Pictures in a box at home
Yellowing and green with mold
So i can barely see your face
Wonder how that color taste

You were always so far away
I know the way so don’t you run away
Like you used to do
Like you used to do

So I can barely see your face
Wonder how that collar tastes

You were always so far away
I know the way so don’t you run away

The world’s goin’ crazy and
Nobody gives a damn anymore.
And they’re breakin’ off relationships and
Leavin’ on sailin’ ships for far and distant shores.
For them it’s all over,
But i’m gonna stay.
I wouldn’t leave anyway.
I know that someday we’ll find a way.
We’ll be o.k.

‘cause i’m your brother,
Though i don’t even know your name.
I’ve discovered that,
Deep down inside, you feel the same.
Our friends are leavin’.
Now they seem so far away.
But we shouldn’t feel afraid.
There’s so much that we can say.
You’re my brother,
Though i didn’t know you yesterday.
I’m your brother.
Together we can find a way.

The world’s goin’ crazy and
Nobody gives a damn anymore.
And they’re breakin’ off relationships and
Leavin’ on sailin’ ships for far and distant shores.
The old world’s fadin’.
Now it seems so far away.
Well, i’m not goin’ anywhere.
There’s so much that we can share.
I’m your brother.

The world’s goin’ crazy and
Nobody gives a damn anymore.
And they’re breakin’ off relationships and
Leavin’ on sailin’ ships for far and distant shores.
You’re my brother,
Though i didn’t know you yesterday.
I’m your brother.
Together we can find a way
