Brother John Songtext
von Deadman

Well now I remember seeing you, seeing you at the show
Yeah, what seemed like yesterday, well
It turned out to be a long time ago

And it′s hard to believe, but that's how it goes
One year just fleeting by
Won′t you help us, help us, help us, Brother John

Well, the story you told me about dear John
Was the apostle whom the Lord did love
Sent to care for Mary and dear brother James
And all of their broken world


And it's hard to believe, but that's how it goes
One year just fleeting by
Won′t you help us, help us, help us, please, Brother John

And it′s hard to believe, but that's how it goes
One year just fleeting by
Won′t you help us, help us, help us, please, Brother John

Now we drink at St. John's, well, to drown out our woes
In a world where no music plays
And a man strums a tune on a broken guitar
Well, I think I can remember his name

And it′s hard to believe, but that's how it goes
One year just fleeting by
Won′t you help us, help us, help us, Brother John

Won't you help us, help us, help us, Brother John
Brother John
