Lyrics
Brother James
I don't really understand
The mechanics of this man
I see him self-destruct time again
Decision process flawed
Tells me it's because he's bored
I don't really know what to say
Brother James I feel sorry for you
Wish there was something I could do
Brother James I never see you smile
Drop down your guard let me hold you for a while
He's divorced with two kids
I'm not sure that they're his
He complains he's paying through the nose
Write songs of lost hope
Tells me it's how he copes
I watch his faith come and go
Brother James I feel sorry for you
Wish there was something I could do
Brother James I never see you smile
Drop down your guard let me hold you for a while
Brother James, take my hand
I don't claim to understand
Everything that you've been through
And the effect it's had on you
When you feel there no place to go
There's one thing I need you to know
I am here for you
He paints the morning sun
The light touches everyone
See it burning in his eyes
Talks of leaving his job
To do something that he loves
But he just can't seem to find the time
Brother James I feel sorry for you
Wish there was something I could do
Brother James I never see you smile
Drop down your guard let me hold you for a while
Let me hold you for a while, Let me hold you for a while
Let me hold you, Let me console you, Let me hold you for a while
