Dedicated to my memories of my brother Pete, Gram and Pop, cousin Joe, Mr. Cardy and old Lodi, NJ
Dedicated to my memories of my brother Pete, Gram and Pop, cousin Joe, Mr. Cardy and old Lodi, NJ
lyrics
My brother’s smile
Come walkin’ through the doorway
in a tight black t-shirt and a pair of jeans
My brother’s smile
In the habit of appearin’ halfway through
sippin' one of Mr.Cardy’s egg creams
As he finds his way down Union to Prospect street
A skip in his stride, light on his feet
In the middle of doin’ nothing
Ah - so good to see
My brother’s smile
lighten up the darkest of my days
My brother’s smile
cheer me up in oh, so many ways
I don’t know about you
But I don’t know what I would do
without my brother’s smile
At twenty two
No one’s really sure ‘bout what he did
mixing liquor and pills and messin’ with a gun
And that .22
was enough to make a mess of that kid
We prayed that he’d make it
but the damage had been done
We made our way down Union to Prospect street
Grandma’s head hung down, Pop was draggin’ his feet
Sorrow came on so sudden
To think I would never see
My brother’s smile
to lighten up the darkest of my days
My brother’s smile
to cheer me up in oh so many ways
And I’ve got to tell you true
I don’t know what I’m gonna do
without my brother’s smile.
Bridge:
And with almost twenty years gone by
A friend let go of a long held secret as he started to cry,
“Cant hold this in any longer -- I think it’s time you got to meet your brother’s daughter”
I watched her walk down Union to Prospect Street
The light in her eyes made my heart skip a beat
I stood there staring in wonder
My mind flooded with memories (of)
My brother’s smile
to lighten up the darkest of my days
My brother’s smile
to cheer me up in oh so many ways
My brother’s smile
would lighten up the darkest of my days
My brother’s smile
could cheer me up in oh so many ways
Now I can’t believe I’m sitting here
Across the table from my brother’s smile
No I can’t believe I’m sitting here
Across the table from my brother’s smile
Come walkin’ through the doorway
in a tight black t-shirt and a pair of jeans
My brother’s smile
In the habit of appearin’ halfway through
sippin' one of Mr.Cardy’s egg creams
As he finds his way down Union to Prospect street
A skip in his stride, light on his feet
In the middle of doin’ nothing
Ah - so good to see
My brother’s smile
lighten up the darkest of my days
My brother’s smile
cheer me up in oh, so many ways
I don’t know about you
But I don’t know what I would do
without my brother’s smile
At twenty two
No one’s really sure ‘bout what he did
mixing liquor and pills and messin’ with a gun
And that .22
was enough to make a mess of that kid
We prayed that he’d make it
but the damage had been done
We made our way down Union to Prospect street
Grandma’s head hung down, Pop was draggin’ his feet
Sorrow came on so sudden
