|
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 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 |
|
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 knew, cry freedom |
|
Insane questions |
|
They asked me what did i know |
|
So strange, they let me go |
|
But more they try |
|
The stronger our love grows |
|
I know that i know, cry freedom |
|
Cry freedom, sweet freedom ... |
