Verse 1

Hey there, Brother
Did you cry for me
Hey there, Brother
Did you lie for me
Did you say that I had to
Float away on the breeze
To fade away the only way to cure the disease

Verse 2

Hey there, Sister
Did you reach out to me
Hey there, Sister
Sorry I didn’t hear the telephone ring
Anyway I was lost at sea
Sharks and waves crashing all around me

Verse 3

Hey there, Daddy
Did you fight for me
Hey there, Daddy
Stormed a beach so I could live free
Now I wonder if I would answer the call
Or throw up my arms and put up no fight at all

Verse 4

Hey there, Momma
Why did you have to leave
Hey there, Momma
Sometimes a think you are
The only one whoever loved me
Now all I do is roam alone
No place feels like home

Verse 5

Hey there, Lover
I still see you in my dreams
Hey there, Lover
Cashing the check to cover all your misdeeds
And now that the flames
Are all around
Can you finally see how you brought all this down 

Coda

Hey there, Children
Will you cry for me
