| [00:15.07] |
Far between sundown's finish an' midnight's broken toll |
| [00:22.54] |
We ducked inside the doorway, thunder crashing |
| [00:29.79] |
As majestic bells of bolts struck shadows in the sounds |
| [00:37.25] |
Seeming to be the chimes of freedom flashing |
| [00:44.78] |
Flashing for the warriors whose strength is not to fight |
| [00:52.26] |
Flashing for the refugees on the unarmed road of flight |
| [00:59.58] |
An' for each an' ev'ry underdog soldier in the night |
| [01:07.00][02:06.86][03:22.29] |
An' we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing |
| [01:14.72] |
Even though a cloud's white curtain in a far-off corner flared |
| [01:22.08] |
An' the hypnotic splattered mist was slowly lifting |
| [01:29.74] |
Electric light still struck like arrows, fired but for the ones |
| [01:37.29] |
Condemned to drift or else be kept from drifting |
| [01:44.80] |
Tolling for the searching ones, on their speechless, seeking trail |
| [01:52.14] |
For the lonesome-hearted lovers with too personal a tale |
| [01:59.39] |
An' for each unharmful, gentle soul misplaced inside a jail |
| [02:30.34] |
Starry-eyed an' laughing as I recall when we were caught |
| [02:37.34] |
Trapped by no track of hours for they hanged suspended |
| [02:44.93] |
As we listened one last time an' we watched with one last look |
| [02:52.64] |
Spellbound an' swallowed 'til the tolling ended |
| [03:00.14] |
Tolling for the aching whose wounds cannot be nursed |
| [03:07.52] |
For the countless confused, accused, misused, strung-out ones an' worse |
| [03:14.98] |
An' for every hung-up person in the whole wide universe |
