Píseň: Leather On My Shoes
- Interpret:
- Chris De Burgh
- Album:
- Flying Colours
i've got leather on my shoes, and i've got a dream to live, there is nothing left to lose, so i'm going, i've got a suitcase here in my hand, and i've got a hungry heart, and i'm going to join the millions, there before me, on the freedom road; no-one's coming to my door, and all my friends have gone, there's no work here anymore, it's deserted, and though i know i hate to leave, from this land that i love, there's a new tomorrow waiting, yes it's shining on the freedom road, on the freedom road; oh sometimes it's going to be lonely, sometimes it will be sad, but i've got to keep on gonig, until i hold that promised land, in the palm of my hand; nothing ventured, nothing gained or won, without a hard fight, we would never reach the sun, without trying, and when we're a million miles from home, out in the starry night, we will see we're not alone, in the heavens, out on freedom road, out on freedom road... out on freedom road.
