[ar:Tift Merritt] [ti:My Heart Is Free] [al:Another Country] [03:16.35][00:01.40]Tift Merritt - My Heart Is Free [00:15.40] [00:15.60]Well, the first thing I remember is the last thing that I saw, [00:23.37]Morning hit the barrel of a rifle going off. [00:31.91]Then the daylight wrapped around me, [00:35.65]Then I heard the sergeant scream, [00:39.65]Then all my reservations fell gently at my feet. [00:47.35] [00:48.09]Now my heart is free. [00:52.01]My heart is free, [00:56.13]and all the things that hold a man no longer carry me. [01:03.39] [01:08.92]I was sure there was a reason to take that side and fight, [01:17.04]But when I saw the trembling hands that put that shot in flight, [01:25.62]I saw the hands of Jesus, saw the shores at Normandy, [01:32.94]Saw a hundred thousand weary lost and homesick boys like me. [01:39.86] [01:41.80]Now my heart is free. [01:45.67]My heart is free, [01:49.79]and all the things that hold a man no longer carry me. [01:57.24] The courage asked of my heart has traveled far beyond those lines. Seems it’s always for a few men that so many of us die. [02:22.76]You don』t remember my name or the girl that I made proud, [02:30.20]And whatever drew me from her arms is nothing to me now. [03:14.14][02:37.49] [02:39.21]Now my heart is free. [02:59.46][02:55.69][02:42.83]My heart is free [03:03.71][02:47.00]and all the things that hold a man no longer carry me [02:54.57]
