"Once Were Brothers" lyrics - ROBBIE ROBERTSON

ROBBIE ROBERTSON
"Once Were Brothers"
feat. Citizen Hope & Frederic Yonnet

When the light goes out
And you can't go on
You miss your brothers
But now they're gone

When the light goes out
We go our own way
Nothing here but darkness
No reason to stay

Oh, once we're brothers
Brothers no more
We lost a connection
After the war

There'll be no revival
There'll be no one cold
Once were brothers
Brothers no more

When that curtain comes down
We'll let go of the past
Tomorrow's another day
Some things weren't meant to last

When that curtain comes down
On the final act
And you know, you know deep inside
There's no goin' back

Once were brothers
Brothers no more
We lost our way
After the war

Can't even remember
What we're fighting for
When once were brothers
Brothers no more

We already had it out
Between the north and south
When we heard all the laughts
Comin' out of your mouth

But we stood together
Like we were next of kin
And when the band played dixie
(Dixie, dixie, dixie)
Dixie marchin' in

Once were brothers
Brothers no more
We lost our connection
After the war

There'll be no revival
There'll be no encore
Once were brothers
Brothers no more
