My Brother by doddie published on 2013-05-27T14:18:05Z Lyrics My Mother said she loved him My Father said the same My brother was more distant Wonder what he became He left on that summer Sunday Ran away to sea Never saw my Brother again Heard he was in Capri Funny how I think of him A hero in my mind A sailor of misfortune Not a word unkind Postcards he would sent us From lands overseas Stories he would tell us Think he was with me Funny how I think of him A hero in my mind A sailor of misfortune Not a word unkind Miss him oh so sadly Heard that he had died Now at rest in the land of hope His ship tied up alongside Funny how I think of him A hero in my mind A sailor of misfortune Not a word unkind I cannot visit to say hello That time has long since past My Brother lives within my heart It's there that he will last Funny how I think of him A hero in my mind A sailor of misfortune Not a word unkind Genre Countryfolk
