From the recording Moving Pictures

Lyrics

Oh, brother dear
You put up a noble fight
Now go gentle into that good night
Close your tired eyes
Bid goodbye, beautiful form
And then fade from this life
Like the night into the morn

But oh, can we way you were just called away
What part of you goes when so much of you stays
This world has it's pull, oh, but angels await
When you're staring down eternity's gate

Oh, brother dear
You deserved better than this
To be left with so much left to give
Yes, I accept, and yet damn this bitter fate
Too much, too soon, too little, too late

But oh, can we way you were just called away
What part of you goes when so much of you stays
This world has it's pull, oh, but angels await
When you're staring down eternity's gate
When you're staring down eternity's gate
