Colin Hay - Freedom Calling lyrics

If you hear a voice call out your name Saying you can stop yourself from falling And if he strikes you in his fear and shame Well you can leave him to his ruin If your dreams they wake you in the night And your heart it is a pounding If you cry out as you wake in your fright And the wind it is a-howling Maybe it's time to find another place Where nobody even knows your face There is no need to be afraid For it's only freedom calling If your tears begin to overflow As you walk against the undertow There is no need to be afraid For it's only freedom calling If you're sad 'cause you're all alone And your hands they are a shaking And your miracle cure's not working anymore And the flood bank's close to breaking Suddenly you're on an open unknown road Pa**ing all the heavy, long wide loads It is time to make your great escape And you can hear your freedom calling I want to dive into the sea of love But my knees they are a quaking I can see myself high up above And there's no time left for faking I no longer need to understand What it is to truly be a man Only when I gave up on my masterplan Did I then hear freedom calling Did I then hear freedom calling
