The Staves - Wisely & Slow Lyrics

The Staves Lyrics

"Wisely & Slow"

Brother, you will never know
All the things I did for you
Many years ago

Singer, singing songs of pain
Time may spin and years may pass
The song is still the same

Tender woman mourns a man
Sits in silent sorrow
With a bottle in her hand

Tell me all you need to tell
Why is it you whisper
When you really need to yell

Troubles in tow
Go wisely and slow

Brother, you will never know
All the things I did for you
Many years ago

Singer, singing songs of pain
Time may spin and years may pass
The song is still the same

Tender woman mourns a man
Sits in silent sorrow
With a bottle in her hand

Tell me all you need to tell
Why is it you whisper
When you really need to yell

Troubles in tow
Go wisely and slow

Brother, brother
Brother, you will never know
Brother, you will never know
Brother, you will never know
