Oysterband - Little Brother lyrics

Every path will hit a brick wall Every space is just a box First he's happy Like a puppy Then he's hurting Like an ox Tips the scales at ninety kilos Seventeen and six foot two Little brother runs his mother down Just pa**ing through Tender-minded, oh so kind He Loves to be with you Anywhere you go he'll stick like glue Does he love me, does he know me? Smacks me in the head to show me Living for the moment but the never comes Living for the moment but the moment… Never comes She lays her head down in the kitchen All the things she's thinking of Mother sighs and wonders why She's stuck with everlasting Love Any awkward time or place His eyes'll start to drift Then he bites his lip and will not shift Does he love me, does he know me? Smacks me in the head to show me Does he know me, does he hear me Even when he stands so near me? Living for the moment but the moment never comes Living for the moment but the moment… And he's watching the birds They're swooping in clouds, like words They come to rest in someone else's tree And I'm down on my knees Give me the patience please Not to fly away and think I'm free Does he love me, does he know me? Smacks me in the head to show me Does he know me, does he hear me Even when he stands so near me? Living for the moment but the moment never comes Living for the moment but the moment never comes He's living for the moment but the moment never comes Living for the moment but the moment… All that hunger, Love and anger bottled up in eyes of blue That can't see someone else's point of view
