Cry Freedom - Live
Anyway this is a song that I wrote a while ago
But it's on the new album
It's called, "Cry of Freedom"
How can I turn away?
Brother, sister go dancing through my head
Human as to human, the future is no place
To place your better days
Cry freedom cry
From a crowd ten thousand wide
Hope laid upon hope
That this crowd will not subside
Let this flag burn to dust
And a new a fair design be raised
While we wait head in hands, hands in prayer
And fall into a dreamless sleep again
And we wave our hands
Hands and feet are all alike
But words between divide us
Hands and feet are all alike
But fear between divide us
All slip away
In this room stood a little child
And in this room this little child
She would remain
Until someone might decide
To dance this little child across this hall
Into a cold, dark, space
Where she might never trace her way across this crooked mile
Across this crooked page
Cry freedom, cry
From deep inside where we are all confined
'Til we wave our hands
Hands and feet are all alike
But gold between divide us
Hands and feet are all alike
But fear between divide us
So let it slip away
There was a window and by it stood
A mirror in which he could see himself
He thought of something
Something he had never had
But hoped would come along
Cry freedom, cry
From deep inside
Where we are all confined
While we wave hands in fire
Wave our hands
How can I turn away
Brother, sister go dancing through my head
Human as to human
The future is no place
To place your better days
Hands and feet are all alike
But fear between divide us
Hands and feet are all alike
But words between divide us
Hands and feet are all alike
Hear what I say
Hear what I say
So be it
How can I turn away?
Brother, sister go dancing
Through my head, human as to human
The future is no place
To place your better days
Thank you very much
But it's on the new album
It's called, "Cry of Freedom"
How can I turn away?
Brother, sister go dancing through my head
Human as to human, the future is no place
To place your better days
Cry freedom cry
From a crowd ten thousand wide
Hope laid upon hope
That this crowd will not subside
Let this flag burn to dust
And a new a fair design be raised
While we wait head in hands, hands in prayer
And fall into a dreamless sleep again
And we wave our hands
Hands and feet are all alike
But words between divide us
Hands and feet are all alike
But fear between divide us
All slip away
In this room stood a little child
And in this room this little child
She would remain
Until someone might decide
To dance this little child across this hall
Into a cold, dark, space
Where she might never trace her way across this crooked mile
Across this crooked page
Cry freedom, cry
From deep inside where we are all confined
'Til we wave our hands
Hands and feet are all alike
But gold between divide us
Hands and feet are all alike
But fear between divide us
So let it slip away
There was a window and by it stood
A mirror in which he could see himself
He thought of something
Something he had never had
But hoped would come along
Cry freedom, cry
From deep inside
Where we are all confined
While we wave hands in fire
Wave our hands
How can I turn away
Brother, sister go dancing through my head
Human as to human
The future is no place
To place your better days
Hands and feet are all alike
But fear between divide us
Hands and feet are all alike
But words between divide us
Hands and feet are all alike
Hear what I say
Hear what I say
So be it
How can I turn away?
Brother, sister go dancing
Through my head, human as to human
The future is no place
To place your better days
Thank you very much
