Brother
Last Under The Sun Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I had a dream - of the wide open prairie
I had a dream - of the pale morning sky
I had a dream - that we flew on golden wings
And we were the same - just the same - you and I
Follow your heart - little child of the west wind
Follow the voice - that's calling you home
Follow your dreams - but always, remember me
I am your brother - under the sun

We are like birds of a feather
We are two hearts joined together
We will be forever as one
My brother under the sun

Wherever you hear - the wind in the canyon
Wherever you see - the buffalo run




Wherever you go - I'll be there beside you
Cos you are my brother - my brother under the sun
