1
Far between sundown's finish and midnight's broken toll
2
We ducked inside the doorway, thunder crashing
3
As majestic bells of bolts, struck shadows in the sounds
4
Seeming to be the chimes of freedom flashing
5
Flashing for the warriors, whose strength is not to fight
6
Flashing for the refugees on the unarmed road of flight
7
And for each and every underdog soldier in the night
8
And we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing
9
Even though a cloud's white curtain in a far off corner flashed
10
And the hypnotic splattered mist was slowly lifting
11
Electric light still struck like arrows, fired but for the ones
12
Condemned to drift or else be kept from drifting
13
Tolling for the searching ones, on their speechless seeking trail
14
For the lonesome hearted lovers, with too personal a tale
15
And for each unharmful gentle soul misplaced inside a jail
16
And we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing
17
Starry eyed and laughing, as I recall when we were caught
18
Trapped by no track of hours for they hanged suspended
19
As we listened one last time and we watched with one last look
20
Spellbound and swallowed till the tolling ended
21
Tolling for the aching ones whose wounds cannot be nursed
22
For the countless confused, accused, misused, sprung-out ones and worse
23
And for every hung-up person in the whole wide universe
24
We gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing
