Текст песни All the Saints - Jeff Healey

Brother, my brother
I watched you give so much away
And I cried when you stop lookin′ forward
And started to stray
Like an empty canvas hangin' on the wall
You′re not sure what to show them
So you show them nothing at all
You're supposed to be strong, supposed to be brave
'Cause that′s the way someone I love should behave
You′re supposed to be you and not somebody else
'Cause I′ve always known more about you than myself
It's hard facing the truth
And embracing all the saints of my youth
Heavenly sister
There′s nobody safe from your charms
And all the hearts in your wake
As lost as the babe in your arms
You can line them up and knock them over
One by one
But you won't find your happiness
In the warmth of a gun
You′re supposed to be patient, supposed to be true
'Cause that's what I′ve always expected of you
You′re supposed to be you and not somebody else
'Cause I′ve always known more about you than myself
It's hard facing the truth
And embracing all the saints of my youth
Father, forgive me for some of the things that I′ve done
And in turn I'll forgive you for losing the faith of a son
Like a lonely beacon burning in the night
I still know that you′re out there
Somewhere just out of sight
You're supposed to be loving, courageous and wise
'Cause that′s what I see when I look in your eyes
You′re supposed to be you and not anyone else
'Cause I trusted you more that I trusted myself
It′s hard facing the truth
Hard facing the truth
It's hard facing the truth
And embracing all the saints of my youth
