My Brother & Me

Im flying home this weekend
The first time since the Christmas after you left
Not sure there's anything left for me
I only used to go to keep you company
And our mothers they'll get older
While you stay the same

You never got to write a book
You never saw New Orleans
I wish we knew what it took
To settle for my brother and me
You settled for my brother and me

In the end it seemed you had some regrets
About the way your life unfolded
But I think you always did your best
And onto that I will be holding

Everyone is fighting it for their whole lives
Always forging on their own path
But we are all simply the rolling tides
Breathing life until our very last

You'll never get to write a book
You'll never see New Orleans
I should've known what it took
To settle for my brother and me
You settled for my brother and me

We'll never live the lives we've always wanted
All we've got is today
Find the smiles wherever you can get them
Go out and find your sun ray because

You'll never get to write a book
You'll never see New Orleans
We're going to figure out what it took
To settle for my brother and me
You'll never get to write a book
You'll never see New Orleans
We're going to figure out what it took
To settle for my brother and me
You settled for my brother and me
