ethereal sunrise - a soft rain lyrics

[verse 1}
sister went to the store
brother fell at home
disconnected oxygen
brother was alone
twenty minutes later
she found him on the floor
and when the medics came in
they could do nothing more
the oldest one was he
now the oldest is me
i was working
on a car in my shop
the back phone kept on ringing
i had to make it stop
i could not hear sister’s words
but listened as she cried
outside i heard a soft rain fall
the day that brother died

[verse 2]
when i was a child
in a country far away
brother’s throat began to close
it was the flu they say
brother was so sick and thin
the other kids would tease
sister and i beat them up
brought them to their knees
those were in days gone by
today i say goodbye…
with two thousand dollars
we came to the states
they shoved a tube right through his neck
it seemed an ugly fate
but brother never rued the day
he never said why me
he gave and slaved his days away
to help others in need
[verse 3]
here in america
farmers we became
the work was hard and in my head
brother was to blame
dreams that i had back at home
were now so far away
and as my resentment grew
i knew i could not stay
my heart had grown so cold
and now i’ve grown so old
i never was the
man i should have been
i was not there for brother
my flesh my blood my kin
upon my wife’s shoulder
last night i softly cried
still outside a soft rain fell
the day that brother died
