Hey, Brother - Robben Ford

Hey, brother

It’s been too long

So I put out my hand

I was wrong

But tell me

Where to from here

You won’t say a word

And you won’t come near

We’ve got history

You deny it

And this silence that you keep

Speaks loud and clear

So we’ve found someone to blame

And nothing is going to change

Hey, friend

Don’t turn your back

Hey, brother

We’re wasting time

I hurt you, now you hurt me

It’s a life of crime

The problem I think is pride

No one’s willing to lose, we defend

Or run and hide

It’s our destiny

To take the open road

We don’t have to walk

That road alone

It’s the things we have at stake

Here behind the noise we make

Oh, friend

Don’t turn your back

While I watched you slip away

I know love lies sleeping

My friend

Forgive the past

Let the good things last

And brother together we can move on

Hey, brother

So far away

If our paths should cross

What would you say

I tell you

Say it now

Or we’ll lose the grace

That time has allowed
