I'm so sorry about your brother and as I listen to the song I think about the void he left in your heart that you have filled with light with this beautiful and emotional song.
Speaking of the song, I like the way it sounds, it's solid, has a very logical and easy to follow construction and a soft, angelic arrangement.
I wish I could read the lyrics, you know my English is limited.
Take care and keep making beautiful songs to hold on to if you fall. @jazz101

Hi Mora,

Thank you so much for your comments, I do appreciate them, and just for you here are the Lyrics,

George

Johnny's song (The way it was before)
Hey Brother, I wonder where you are.
Are you sitting on a cloud somewhere, looking down from afar?
Are you watching over all of us, with that big smile on your face ?
Hoping that we all will learn, from all of our mistakes.

Chorus
Each day I wake up and I mourn
Loosing you my brother, has left me,
Like a thorn without a rose
Like a knight without a King
On a never-ending walkway, that never leads to anything
And what I wouldn't give and more
To have you back my brother,
and everything, the way it was before

Hey Johnny, with that big smile on your face
Nothing was too serious and you were always late
Remember, we would fight till dawn
And mum and dad would say "boys will be boys"

A great and heartfelt tribute.  The lyrics really say it all.  Well done.

Rightly

very heart-warming song.
My condolences  :(
I hope you're surrounded by supportive family and friends.

The song has a very clear production
And a good vocal performance
