A boy flies for freedom   But dies for the peace   In the clouds, he waits for an answer   But there's no release      It's strange here without you   And it's so hard to see   So brother up in heaven   Please wait up for me      Oh, brother up in heaven   Please wait up for me      I still see his shadow   His laugh lingers on   When I dream, we're all back together   When I wake, he's gone      It's strange here without you   This was not meant to be   So brother up in heaven   Please wait up for me      And though we try to change the world   A flower when it's cut will surely die   So why do men with so much hate   Destroy what they cannot create   While we all stand by      We look back in anger   But you helped us to see   So brother up in heaven   Please wait up for me      Oh, brother up in heaven   Please wait up for me
