Brother O' Brother

Oh, how my weary arms
Ache for my brother’s embrace
A year has passed
Since I have seen his face

Golden haired boy
A man tried and true
Sensitive, kind and a joy
Without him I am blue

For I, the eldest
Was charged with his care
Our perils were endless
And he so innocent and fair

Forgive me my many trespasses
As my heart has been true
So many setbacks
I miss you
