This song was originally featured on the Joint session album, Calling of the road, from 2000.

lyrics

Well I'm writing to my brother
he lives upon the line
He makes his daily well he does that bread and wine
uh huh huh

He lives upon the seashore
he goes there everyday
and listens to the rhythm that the sea birds play
uh huh huh

but deep inside his heart there is a yearning
a feeling like it's all just wasted time
fires that he lit are slowly burning
and all the people living on that bread and wine
uh huh huh

Well I'm writing to my sister
she lives upon the coast
she says she likes it there she says it rains the most
uh huh huh

She climbs upon a mountain
to see what she will see
and watches as today turns into history
uh huh huh

But deep inside her heart there is a yearning
a feeling like its all just wasted time
living life as everyone's expecting
and all the people living on that bread and wine
uh huh huh

Look now its down to me and you
All caught up in all the things we do
Don't run hard when you're running blind
If anybody asks just say you're doing fine

well that's all right, or that's what some folks say
but search lights stay on all night and day
they're searching for some kind of peace of mind
but the harder that you look you know the less you're gonna find

Well I'm writing out my living
in a letter to you all
I'm hoping someone catches just in case I fall
uh huh huh

And if I'm caught by someone
who will love me all the time
I'll be blessed to go on living on that bread and wine
uh huh huh

'Cause deep inside the heart there is a searching
A feeling like we're standing in a line
living life as everyone's expecting
and all the people living on that bread and wine
uh huh huh
