Brothers

It still cuts me so bad
That day has haunted me
My heart stopped beating
My world was spinning
I’ve never heard Mum
Cry like she did that day
We were waiting, hoping, praying

Don’t you
Give up
Don’t you quit on me
O God save his soul now
Hear my desperate prayers, God
Please just
Wake up
Don’t you quit on me
Don’t you quit on me

I sat by your side
Stayed with you through the night
Fighting for you, clinging on to
I played you your songs
Recall when we were young
Reliving and reminiscing

Don’t you
Give up
Don’t you quit on me
O God save his soul now
Hear my desperate prayers, God
Please just
Wake up
Don’t you quit on me
Don’t you quit on me

Listen to your father’s voice
Feel your mother’s hand on yours
See your wife clutching your ring
Hear your kids playing

Listen to your father’s voice
Feel your mother’s hand on yours
See your wife clutching your ring
Your sister’s still crying

Don’t you
Give up
Don’t you quit on me
O God save his soul now
Hear my desperate prayers, God
Please just
Wake up
Don’t you quit on me
Don’t you quit on me
