Buckley Jeff Dream Brother Lyrics

Dream Brother Lyrics

there is a child sleeping near his twin

 the pictures go wild in a rush of wind

 that dark angel he is shuffling in

 watching over them with his black feather wings unfurled

 

 the love you lost with her skin so fair

 is free with the wind in her butterscotch hair

 her green eyes bloom goodbyes

 with her head in her hands and your kiss on the lips of another

 dream brother

 with your tears scattered round the world.

 

 don't be like the one who made me so old

 don't belie the one who left behind his name

 'cause they're waiting for you like i waited for mine

 and nobody ever came

 

 i feel afraid and i call your name

 i love your voice and your dance insane

 i hear your words and i know your pain

 your head in your hands and her kiss on the lips of another

 your eyes to the ground

 and the world spinning round forever

 

 asleep in the sand with the ocean washing over
