I hear it more and more It's the sound of freedom calling Ringing up to the skies It's the sound of the old ways a-falling You can hear it if you try You can hear it if you try [Verse 2] Oh, what's that I see now shining in my eyes? I've seen that light before Hey, what's that I see now shining in my eyes? I see it more and more It's the light of freedom calling Shining up to the skies It's the light of the old ways a-falling You can see it if you try You can see it if you try [Verse 3] Hey, what's that I feel now beating in my heart?

I feel it more and more It's the rumble of freedom calling Climbing up to the sky It's the rumble of the old ways a falling You can feel it if you try You can feel it if you try
