After the Last

I saw your daddy ache in his skin
None could redeem
What was his fury? Only the grace
To be a dream

Newspaper said the "American Queen"
Down at Beale Street
Saw you wash up
Father of Waters
Song incomplete

After the last,
Dream brother,
Give me the first,
Dream brother

After the King, who else could hold
That microphone
And do it live? Children, take care
Of flesh and bone

All of the years, under the moon
Go down the stream
Music is fire, and I can hear
Only in dreams

After the last,
Dream brother,
Give me the first
Dream brother

La la la la

Wait now, wait now

All of the years, under the moon
Go down the stream
Music is fire, and I can hear
Only in dreams

You-ou-ou

After the last,
Dream brother,
Give me the first
Dream brother

After the last,
Dream brother,
Give me the first,
Brother
