In this well crafted song you are unsure if Carl is referring to his late brother Dennis Wilson or his estranged brother Brian Wilson. Or both.
One wild childhood scheme
One impossible plan
A summer song, a lifetime long
A dream we built in the soft sand
The tide rolls in
Wait for your wave
There'll be another
And we will sing
I love you still like a brother
A voice soars to the night
And a million hearts take flight
The crowd still roars, the cheers are yours
But you're not there in the spotlight
The tide rolls in
Wait for your wave
There'll be another
And we will sing
I love you still likе a brother
Till the beat bеgins
Till the voices ring
I will wait till then
Like a brother
The tide rolls in
Wait for your wave
There'll be another
And we will sing
I love you still like a brother
