Liberty ... a song for New York



Verse 1

Raindrops and stormy clouds,
Blowing through the skies.
Tears, fears, and broken dreams,
Caught in many eyes.
I watch Liberty cry for everyone,
Who’s felt her heart was their home.
And as she takes a look at what’s destroyed;
Things she could not control.
And it leaves her feeling like a lost and injured soul.


Verse 2

Waves crash and sweep ashore
All that’s in their way.
And washing up old memories
From a different yesterday.
I watch Liberty scan the skies,
And wonder what’s yet to come.
She listens to the fear that’s in her heart,
But it’s drowned out by hope.
Cos she knows that storm clouds always drift away.


Verse 3

Instrumental

I watch Liberty inhale the air,
Take it deep in her soul.
She looks to her flame to light the way
Along the steep road to home.
And she knows her heart will some day soon be whole.
