Lyrics
To the freedom fighters, to the everest climbers, to the castaways
To the midnight riders, to the spark igniters, I am on my way Let it be said, and let it be known, he who is free is never alone The path before us, the world behind us
I’ll wait for you there
>
To the lost ark raiders, to the lion tamers, to the stowaway To the white tide chaser, to the black flag raiser, I’m on my way
>
Let it be said, and let it be known,
he who is free is never alone The path before us, the world behind us
I’ll wait for you there
>
There’s a song that sailors know
Lost, alone and far from home Golden gallions. golden guns
And find that place under the sun
>
There’s a song on the Sahara wind That lifts you to your feet again
> >
That dances on the clockwork stars That pulses through a beating heart
