Unknown Brother
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Though I never met you
And we spoke not a word
I'll never forget you
From the stories that I've heard
For you unknown brother
My baby's mothers pain
Cause your soul is in heaven
But your memory remains
Unknown
Unknown brother
I'll meet you someday
Unknown
Unknown brother
We walk through fields
Where children play
Your eyes shined bright
When you were a kid
Your sisters love you
And all that you did
Big brother, big brother
Don't worry a bit
Your flame has not faded
Since the day it was lit
Your life was joy
Your momma's only boy
And when the skies are blue
Big brother
They're blue for you
We will smile like pictures
Of you as a boy
Before you retired
To Heavenly joy
Unknown
Unknown brother
I'll meet you someday
Unknown
Unknown brother
We walk through fields
Where children play
Da da da da
