Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Keep your eyes on them rolling wheels Fifteen solid forward gears They glide like butterflies down the highway They'll move you down the line They'll bring you home in time They'll sing you songs of love returning Oh our brother's gone away He can't play like he used to But his words still ring true They curl like dust clouds on the roadside He's been broken by a heart But still does not live apart From all the sorrow he has shown me Oh our brother's gone away And don't you wish that he could stay To walk you to the county line To see you shining in your time And don't you wish there was a way Like a kid who's been out throwing stones Into a river close to home I've taught myself to trust the melody So I sing when I've got time First to lose and then to find If I don't make it don't you worry Oh our brother's gone away And don't you wish that he could stay To see you finally settled down To see your children gathered round And don't you wish there was a way
