Rufus Wainwright - He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother lyrics

[Rufus Wainwright - He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother lyrics]

The road is long with many a winding turn
That leads us to who knows where
Who knows where, who know where
But, I'm strong, strong enough to carry him
He ain't heavy, he's my brother

So on we go, his welfare is of my concern
No burden is he to bear, we'll get there
For I know, he would not encumber me
He ain't heavy, he's my brother

If I'm laden at all, I'm laden with sadness
That everyone's heart isn't
Filled with gladness of love for one another

It's a long
Long road from which there is no return
While we're on our way to there
Why not share
And the load doesn't weigh me down at all
He ain't heavy, he's my brother

He's my brother he ain't heavy
He's my brother he ain't heavy
He's my brother
