Lyrics

The road is long

The journey ahead is challenging and demanding.

With many a winding turn

The path is full of twists and turns.

That leads us to who knows where, who knows where

It leads to an uncertain destination.

But I'm strong

Despite the challenges, the narrator is resilient.

Strong enough to carry him

The narrator is capable of supporting someone in need.

He ain't heavy, he's my brother

Expressing a strong bond, emphasizing the willingness to help.


So on we go

The journey continues with a focus on the well-being of the other person.

His welfare is of my concern

The narrator is deeply concerned about the other person's welfare.

No burden is he to bear

Emphasizing that the person is not a burden.

We'll get there

Confidence in reaching the destination despite challenges.


For I know

Expressing knowledge about the other person's nature.

He would not encumber me

Assurance that the person will not cause difficulties.

He ain't heavy, he's my brother

Reiteration of the strong bond, emphasizing the lack of burden.


If I'm laden at all

If there is any burden, it is the narrator's sadness.

I'm laden with sadness

The narrator feels a heavy emotional weight.

That everyone's heart

Expressing a wish for universal happiness.

Isn't filled with the gladness

Not everyone experiences the joy of loving one another.

Of love for one another

Highlighting the importance of love and compassion.


It's a long, long road

Emphasizing the lengthy and irreversible nature of life's journey.

From which there is no return

No turning back from the road of life.

While we're on the way to there

While on the journey, there is an opportunity to share.

Why not share?

An encouragement to share the burdens of life.


And the load

The burdens don't feel overwhelming.

Doesn't weigh me down at all

Reiterating that the person is not a heavy burden.

He ain't heavy, he's my brother

Reaffirming the commitment to support the brother.


He's my brother

Emphasizing the familial bond with a direct reference to brotherhood.

He ain't heavy, he's my brother

Repeating the idea that the brother is not a burden.

He ain't heavy, he's my brother

Reaffirming the strong, supportive nature of the relationship.
