REST WELL MY BROTHER

I’ll never be lonely
I’ll always be free
‘Cause you are my brother
You’re right next to me
So sleep well my brother
So rest well my brother
So take heart my brother
You’re always with me

There is a song
There is a sadness
I’ve carried so long
But I know you’re okay
Cause you know I care
There’s people who love you
Although you’re not there

You carry the hearts and the souls and the minds
Of your brothers, your family, your friends, your lovers
You’ll never be lonely
You’ll always be free

Be safe my brother
So long my best friend
But I’ll never leave you
You’re here till the end

When I am travelling
Alone on the road
I know that you’re with me
You know you’re still loved

We’ve journeyed so far together
We’ve journeyed so long
And you’ll be right with me
When I sing this song

So sleep well my brother
Sleep well my best friend
Cause I’ll never leave you
You’re here to the end.

I’ll never be lonely
I’ll always be free
‘Cause you are my brother
You’re right next to me
So sleep well my brother
So rest well my brother
So take heart my brother
You’re always with me
