(phil roy, bob thiele jr., davey farager)



You are my brother, you are my family

And it seems like only yesterday, we were running wild and free

Down the corner buying candy, or messin' 'round in the neighborhood

Hanging out with you night and day, it was good, so good

Lately i've heard you've got the weight of the world on your shoulder

Times have been rough, i can't turn the other way



My brother, my brother, whatcha gonna do

My brother, my brother, here to help you

Tell me your sorrows, tell me your fears

My brother, my brother, i'll always be here



I know that we are different, and we've gone our separate way

But we've got to learn to accept each other, for who we are today

I know it won't be easy, but we both have got to try

To hold onto each other, until the day we die

Nobody knows you quite the way that i do

And if you're in trouble, come to me, come to me



My brother, my brother, whatcha gonna do

My brother, my brother, i'm here to help you

Tell me your sorrows, tell me your fears

My brother, my brother, i'll always be here



Whatcha gonna do

I'm here to help you

Tell me



We got the same blood running through our veins, my brother

Father is the heaven, mother is the grave

We gotta look out for each other, my brother

Yeah, that's what we gotta do



Tell me

My brother, my brother, whatcha gonna do

My brother, my brother, here to help you

Tell me your sorrows, tell me your fears

My brother, my brother, i'll always be here



My brother, my brother, whatcha gonna do

My brother, my brother, i'm here to help you

Tell me your sorrows, tell me your fears

My brother, my brother, i'll always be here



My brother, my brother, whatcha gonna do

My brother, my brother, here to help you

Tell me your sorrows, tell me your fears

My brother, my brother, i'll always be here
