Lyrics
If you were my brother, we’d have our own world
From where the woods begin to our yard,
We’d pull the violet dusk in; Mother calling
I’d catch the grass green and blue,
I’d catch the wind for you
Growing under the same sun and moon
I’d grow to be someone you always knew
But even my brother
He doesn’t remember
And the dreams that we shared
Disappeared from each other
If you were my lover, we’d never be up by noon
Waking with the dawn light, too soon,
Alive, and warm in our breathing perfume
I’d give my life to you
You’d give me my life all new,
And tell me everything, and I too,
Would tell you everything you always knew
But even my lover
He doesn’t remember
And the heaven we had
Descended forever
