Lyrics

Intro

Twelve years gone like dust in wind,

I trace your shadow where we’d been.

Three brothers born from the same small town—

One broke free, two stayed tied down.

⸻

Verse 1

You drove me home in that rusted car,

Singing old songs underneath the stars.

You were the spark when my world went cold—

A steady hand I could always hold.

You made me soup when I was sick,

Patched my heart when it fell to bits.

You were the shoulder, I was the storm—

You kept a frightened boy warm.

But the night you left for London town,

My fear was the thing that let you down.

⸻

Pre-Chorus

You spoke your truth so soft, so brave—

And I let silence take your place.

⸻

Chorus

Oh brother of mine, I pushed you away,

When all you wanted was love that day.

Your small, honest truth met my foolish pride—

And I lost you the moment I stepped aside.

Now you’re two hundred miles away…

And I miss you more every day.

⸻

Verse 2

The small-town talk cut sharp and mean,

Saying things they’d never dare say to me.

I blamed you just to ease my shame,

But every night I whispered your name.

Twelve years passed like a slow sunrise—

And I’ve grown tired of the alibis.

⸻

Pre-Chorus

You spoke your truth, I turned to stone—

And I hate I left you on your own.

⸻

Chorus

Oh brother of mine, I pushed you away,

When all you wanted was love that day.

Your small, honest truth met my foolish pride—

And I lost you the moment I stepped aside.

Now you’re two hundred miles away…

And I miss you more every day.

⸻

Bridge

Still hear your laugh in the London rain,

Like a melody calling out my name.

If forgiveness shines like morning light,

Let it find you on your street tonight.

⸻

Final Chorus

And you’re still two hundred miles away—

But I whisper your name every time I pray.

Hope the London sky hears what I couldn’t say:

My love for you was never weak that day.

Oh brother, I’m sorry I turned away…

I never meant to make you run that way.

⸻

Outro

Oh brother, if this song finds your heart—

Know my door’s open, we can restart.

Two hundred miles I’d walk any day…

Just to hear your voice and say:

I’m loving you more

Every

Day.
