For Freedom

Somewhere a trumpet sounds in the night\nA soldier is standing there\nIt’s calling him out to the stars and the stripes\nIt’s calling him god knows where\nHe kisses the ones he loves goodbye\nAnd leaves in the dead of night\nFor freedom he’ll heed the call\nLeave all he knows\nAnd for freedom he’ll stand and fight\nAnd somewhere a man and wife\nCan’t believe they’re waving their girl goodbye\nFor gone are the days of pigtails\nAnd curls and candlelight lullabies\nIf they had their way she’d stay young forever\nAnd never be far from home\nBut freedom has drawn her heart to danger’s shore\nAnd for freedom they’ll let her go And somewhere a thunderous crash in the night\nIt echoes all through the hills\nThough many escape its wrath and its rage\nA soldier lies wounded still\nRemembering the land he loves, he cries\nI’ve loved you with all my might\nFor freedom said, «I'm her son whatever comes\n(Whatever comes)\nAnd for freedom I’ll say goodbye»\nAnd somewhere beneath the stars and the sky\nOur flag is still standing there\n(She's still standing there)\nShe bled and she brought one land under God\n(Under God)\nHer colors still lead us there\n(It's still there)\nShe’s carried the lives of those before us She’s buried the bold and brave\nFor freedom she holds our hopes\nAnd, and hands up high\nAnd for freedom she’ll ever wave
