Chantal Chamandy - Free lyrics

rate me

She smiles it's another day

no one knocked on her door today

she hugs her children, tries not to cry

a glass of wine to forget the day

she writes him a letter

hey baby everything's ok

(just come home)

can you hear my prayer

I wont live without his love

its time he comes home to see

the daddy he's become

every child needs a father

not a hero in a box

leaving tears that never dry

and a lifetime full of thoughts

and a lifetime that will never be

scared to watch the news and hear them say

a soldier lost his life she prays

kisses his picture and hope remains inside her

never questions why 'cause she knows he loves his country

a place that needs to be safe for our children to grow

oh tried to be strong and understanding

but dying won't set us free

no, no – freedom is living with the one we love

I wanta be free to smile

free to learn, free to love, free to speak, free…

every child needs a father

not a hero in a box

leaving tears that never dry

and a lifetime full of thoughts

that will never be… if you're not free

if you're not free
