Blood Brother Lyrics by Band Of Hope

Rhythm & Reds

0

[Verse 1]
Ben was born in Lincoln County
And he grew up on the Fens
Teased and bullied by his brothers
In a family of ten
Sociable and easy going
Helping out around the home
While his inner life tickled on
Like an unexploded bomb
Waiting for his moment
[Verse 2]
Going shopping with his Mother
Like a whippet on a leash
Always straining at the traces
Out of sight and out of reach
Every time the house was empty
He would work out on his own
Disappearing on his bike
In the middle of the night
And stealing from thе kitchen
[Chorus]
Open your eyеs Open your eyes
Open your eyes Here I am
I'm your blood brother
[Verse 3]
Well he saved up his allowance
And he studied like a slave
Worked his passage to Australia
Trying to make his getaway
I was single when I met him
He was bitter and nineteen
But he so reminded me
Of someone I used to be
A long time ago
[Chorus]
Open your eyes Open your eyes
Open your eyes Here I am
I'm your blood brother
[Verse 4]
Well the years have been and vanished
And I've lost a lot of friends
I do twenty at the pool
Take the kids to school
Now the party's had to end
But at a benefit last Sunday
We met again as by fate
I hardly recognised Ben
When he grabbed me again
And whispered in my ear
[Chorus]
Open your eyes Open your eyes
Open your eyes Here I am
I'm your blood brother
Open your eyes Open your eyes
Open your eyes Here I am
I'm your blood brother
