RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: WORLD DEMOCRACY
Days of Freedom
There was a time we walked the streets
Free and easy like a charm
No one could tell us where to go
No one could do us any harm
Now they stop us everywhere
To rob us of our peace
To steal away our memories
Of the days when we were free
Like a lover from our dreams
Like a hero in a song
The days of freedom linger
We will miss her when she’s gone
We will take a vow of memory
A promise never to forget
The days when we were free
The nights when we first met
We held on for our lives
Like we were riders on a jet
They sang of us in Singapore
It rang across the sea
Always we’ll remember
The days when we were free
Like a lover in a dream
Like a hero in a song
The days of freedom linger
We will miss her when she’s gone
(for Democracy in Hong Kong)
