Reprise: Brother, My Brother Lyrics
A line in long array
Where they wind betwixt the green
Their arms flash in the sun
But their faces can't be seen
Behold the silv'ry river
Where their horses stop to drink
Scarlet blue and golden spurs
A chain you can't unlink
Keep your still indifferent sun
That will never warm my fear
Keep your cold and endless winter
And this old and friendless year
Give me women and their ways
And their complicated eyes
Give me respite from these days
And the wisdom to be wise
Where they wind betwixt the green
Their arms flash in the sun
But their faces can't be seen
Behold the silv'ry river
Where their horses stop to drink
Scarlet blue and golden spurs
A chain you can't unlink
Keep your still indifferent sun
That will never warm my fear
Keep your cold and endless winter
And this old and friendless year
Give me women and their ways
And their complicated eyes
Give me respite from these days
And the wisdom to be wise
