Live Free
One of the most beautiful love songs I have ever heard, and a
side from Mr. Farrar that is not often seen, at least not in
such a blunt perspective. I think we all have had that feeling
of wanting to see someone we love so dearly, but some factor
prohibits our desire. "Lights that shine are caustic without
you," presents an evident lovesick truth. The chorus of this
tune speaks to me in a sense that even as the narrator grows
old, that same love... "it will remain."
Looking for the right kind of live free or die...
I want to see your smile through a pay phone
The season has changed
I want to see you in it
Lights that shine are caustic without you
When we're all passed over
The rhythm of the river will remain
And it will remain
Nicotine and waiting
Just wanted to keep it alive
You turn and before you know it
We're just threading this needle for life
A brighter way is what you prove
Anesthetize is what you do
When we're all passed over
The rhythm of the river will remain
And it will remain
Someday we'll be together
Farther south than the train line
The Delta mud will be there
We're just living this way
'Cause we've known no other
When we're all passed over
The rhythm of the river will remain
And it will remain
Looking for the right kind of live free or die...
