Brother why'd you have to go

You left us all so soon

Remember that song I wrote about your family years ago

Well they're waiting for you to come home

What do I do

What do I say

And dad tells me to pray

So I prayed and prayed but the hurt won't go away

The pain gets worse it never stops

And I've asked the lord for us to swap

I beg and plead' cause you have kids to feed

Why is it always stormy weather

And brother tell me if it all gets better

Why did you leave

Why did you die

You finally made your brother cry

I know you're watching over us tonight

And I hope you're watching over us tonight

I'm sorry I missed your call

I wasn't there for you at all

And now I've thought it through maybe if

I answered you that you'd still be here all along

Now no more calls

Can't you see

I took for granted family

And once they're gone you'll never get that back

No more laughs

No more hugs

So hold on to the ones you love

Your soul is free

I love you anthony

And why is it always stormy weather

And brother tell me when does it get better

Why did you leave

Why did you die

You finally made your brother cry

I know you're watching over from above

So hold on to the ones you love
