13. For Tony (3:59)
I will never remember the first day we met
I woke up so early and took my first breath
The frost on the window pane, fractured the light
You were so happy to meet us, we two in one life
The time that you gave me, beyond words on a line
We walked out in harmony, not a step out of time
I grew like the strongest oak, then the whole forest fell
The days became so distant, you didn't know me so well
I've heard this song before, did I create these lines?
The story's been told, so many ways, so many times...
Is this yours, is it mine?
Back in the penniless pathway we were incredibly rich
You guarded us so closely from any bitterness kick
You didn't tell me one day you'd go, like a lion I cried
I am alone in the open, just a shell from the tide
That little town of ours was all the universe
You held my hand and guided me through
So I'd never be, the little boy lost
There's a space in a green field where a tree will be set
It's for the ones who love you to show where you rest
As every branch reaches for the sun, we will hold you again
For you are my brother, my brother... my friend
I woke up so early and took my first breath
The frost on the window pane, fractured the light
You were so happy to meet us, we two in one life
The time that you gave me, beyond words on a line
We walked out in harmony, not a step out of time
I grew like the strongest oak, then the whole forest fell
The days became so distant, you didn't know me so well
I've heard this song before, did I create these lines?
The story's been told, so many ways, so many times...
Is this yours, is it mine?
Back in the penniless pathway we were incredibly rich
You guarded us so closely from any bitterness kick
You didn't tell me one day you'd go, like a lion I cried
I am alone in the open, just a shell from the tide
That little town of ours was all the universe
You held my hand and guided me through
So I'd never be, the little boy lost
There's a space in a green field where a tree will be set
It's for the ones who love you to show where you rest
As every branch reaches for the sun, we will hold you again
For you are my brother, my brother... my friend
