Intro

Verse 1

How can I repay you, brother mine?

How can I expect you to forgive?

Clinging to the past, I shed our blood

 And shattered your chance to live

Verse 2

Though I knew the laws, I paid no heed

How can I return your wasted breath?

What I didn't know has cost you dear;

 For there is no cure for death

Bridge

Beautiful mother, soft and sweet

Once you were gone we were not complete

Back through the years we reached for you

 Alas, it was not to be

Chorus

 And how can I make amends

 For all that I took from you?

 I led you with hopeless dreams

 My brother, I was a fool

Piano solo

Verse 3

Don't cry for the past now, brother mine

Neither you nor I are free of blame

Nothing can erase the things we did

 For the path we took was the same

Verse 4

How could I expect to call you wrong?

How could you be blamed for what we've done?

Both of us were fools in our desires

 As we flew too close to the sun

Bridge

Beautiful mother, soft and sweet

Once you were gone we were not complete

Back through the years we reached for you

 Alas, it was not to be

Chorus

 My dreams made me blind and mute

 I longed to return to that time

 I followed without a word

 My brother, the fault is mine

Piano solo

same again)

Chorus

 So where do we go from here?

 And how to forget and forgive?

 What's gone is forever lost

 Now all we can do is live...

Outro

Hope it worked out for you
