[00:00.00]For Freedom (Version Without Quotes) - Avalon
[00:49.39]Somewhere a trumpet sounds in the night
[00:54.15]A soldier is standing there
[00:58.96]It's calling him out to the stars and the stripes
[01:03.85]It's calling him god knows where
[01:08.75]He kisses the ones he loves goodbye
[01:13.37]And leaves in the dead of night
[01:18.32]For freedom he'll heed the call
[01:22.02]Leave all he knows
[01:25.84]And for freedom he'll stand and fight
[01:41.04]And somewhere a man and wife
[01:43.81]Can't believe they're waving their girl goodbye
[01:50.46]For gone are the days of pigtails
[01:54.20]And curls and candlelight lullabies
[01:59.77]If they had their way she'd stay young forever
[02:04.98]And never be far from home
[02:09.57]But freedom has drawn her heart to danger's shore
[02:16.88]And for freedom they'll let her go
[02:31.87]And somewhere a thunderous crash in the night
[02:36.47]It echoes all through the hills
[02:41.69]Though many escape its wrath and its rage
[02:46.27]A soldier lies wounded still
[02:51.28]Remembering the land he loves  he cries
[02:56.12]I've loved you with all my might
[03:00.50]For freedom said  "I'm her son whatever comes
[03:06.29](Whatever comes)
[03:07.58]And for freedom I'll say goodbye"
[03:21.85]And somewhere beneath the stars and the sky
[03:26.46]Our flag is still standing there
[03:28.52](She's still standing there)
[03:31.57]She bled and she brought one land under God
[03:35.64](Under God)
[03:36.46]Her colors still lead us there
[03:39.47](It's still there)
[03:41.22]She's carried the lives of those before us
[03:45.83]She's buried the bold and brave
[03:48.95](the bold and brave)
[03:50.82]For freedom she holds our hopes
[03:53.79](she holds our hopes)
[03:54.86]And  and hands up high
[03:58.16]And for freedom she'll ever wave
