|
She told 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 knewShe 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 |
|
Tell the whole world |
|
To get ready |
|
Cry freedom, sweet freedom |
|
Tell the whole world |
|
That we're ready |
|
She said goodnight |
|
But just as |
|
I was leaving |
|
A black car came into view |
|
And waiting there |
|
They could hear me breathing |
|
They knew that |
|
I knewCry freedom, sweet freedom |
|
Tell the whole world |
|
To get ready |
|
Cry freedom, sweet freedom |
|
Tell the whole world |
|
That we're ready |
|
Insane questions |
|
They asked me what did |
|
I knowSo strange, they let me go |
|
But more they try |
|
The stronger our love grows |
|
I know that you know |
|
Cry freedom, sweet freedom |
|
Tell the whole world |
|
To get ready |
|
Cry freedom, sweet freedom |
|
Tell the whole world |
|
That we're ready |
|
Cry freedom, sweet freedom |
|
Cry freedom, sweet freedom |
|
Cry freedom, sweet freedom |
|
Cry freedom, sweet freedom |
|
Cry freedom, sweet freedom |
|
Cry freedom, sweet freedom |
|
Cry freedom, sweet freedom |
