A boy flies for freedom But dies for the peace In the clouds, he waits for an answer But there's no release It's strange here without you And it's so hard to see So brother up in heaven Please wait up for me Oh brother up in heaven Please wait up for me I still see his shadow His laugh lingers on When I dream, we're all back together When I wake, he's gone It's strange here without you This was not meant to be So brother up in heaven Please wait up for me And though we try to change the world A flower when it's cut will surely die So why do men with so much hate Destroy what they cannot create While we all stand by We will look back in anger But you helped us to see So brother up in heaven Please wait up for me Oh brother up in heaven Please wait up for me
