Brother

Your mother's only son

If she had-a had one, if she had-a had one

Your mother's only son

My sisters born together

Whispering soldier

Winters getting colder, winters getting colder.

Yeah you watch me getting older.

It was not a lonely summer

Absence love is manufactured

I was ready to be captured

Oh but hearts are made to fracture

I was waiting by the phone

For July Talk conversation

Oh my love you were so patient

Running still intoxication

Your mother's only son

She's not the only one

That watched me tell a lie

No, he's not the only one

That would leave me to die, leave me to die

By the river side

Leave me to die

Make your little sister cry

There was romance in the waiting

Short phone calls understated

Secrets created

We made our homes in different places

Ecstasy ain't hard to come by

I met her in the month of may

Time came you went away

History remain

Your mother's only son

She's not the only one

That watched me tell a lie

No, he's not the only one

That would leave me to die, leave me to die

By the river side

Leave me to die

Make your little sister cry

It's time to leave this to die by the river side

Leave this to die by the river side

Leave this to die

Make our little sisters cry
