Avalon - For Freedom lyrics
Your rating:
Jody: Somewhere a trumpet sounds in the night A soldier is standing there It's calling him out to the stars and the stripes It's calling him God knows where Melissa: He kisses the ones he loves goodbye and leaves in the dead of night For freedom he'll heed the call Leave all he knows (duet) And for freedom he'll stand and fight Greg: And somewhere a man and wife can't believe they're waving their girl goodbye For gone are the days of pigtails and curls and candlelight lullabies Janna: If they had their way she'd stay young forever and never be far from home But freedom has drawn her heart to danger's shore And for freedom they'll let her go Jody: And somewhere a thunderous crash in the night It echoes all through the hills Greg: Though many escape it's wrath and it's rage A soldier lies wounded still Melissa / Janna: Remembering the land he loves, he cries I've loved you with all my might For freedom said I'm her son whatever comes (whatever comes) And for freedom I'll say goodbye Everybody: And somewhere beneath the stars and the sky Our flag is still standing there (she's still standing there) She bled and she brought one land under God (under God) Her colors still lead us there (it's still there) She's carried the lives of those before us She's buried the bold and brave For freedom she holds our hopes and and hands up high And for freedom she'll ever wave
