Lyrics
Cry Freedom
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
She told me the story I listened with my eyes closed / So sad,
but so true / She whispered softly,
I asked her why she did so / She knew that I knew / She was a skater,
the ice was her second home / The country's finest,
everyone could see / She had a plan to break across the border> / Instead of waiting for the powers that be / Cry freedom,
sweet freedom / And tell the whole world to get ready / Cry freedom,
sweet freedom / Now tell the whole world that we're ready / She said goodnight,
and just as I was leaving Black car came into view / And waiting there,
they could hear me breathing The knew that I knew / Cry freedom...
/ Insane questions,
they asked me what did I know / So strange,
they let me go / The more they try,
the stronger our love grows I know that you know / Cry freedom...
