A boy flies for freedom
But dies for the peace
In the clouds, he waits for an answer
But there's no releaseIt's strange here without you
And it's so hard to see
So brother up in heaven
Please wait up for meOh, brother up in heaven
Please wait up for meI still see his shadow
His laugh lingers on
When I dream, we're all back together
When I wake, he's goneIt's strange here without you
This was not meant to be
So brother up in heaven
Please wait up for meAnd though we try to change the world
A flower when it's cut will surely die
So why do men with so much hate
Destroy what they cannot create
While we all stand byWe look back in anger
But you helped us to see
So brother up in heaven
Please wait up for meOh, brother up in heaven
Please wait up for me
