There is freedom within There is freedom without Try to catch the deluge in a paper cup There's a battle ahead Many battles are lost But, you'll never see the end of the road While you're traveling with me
Chorus: Hey now Hey now Don't dream it's over Hey now Hey now When the world comes in They come They come To build a wall between us We know they won't win
Now I'm towing my car There's a hole in the roof My possessions are causing me suspicion But, there's no proof In the paper today, tales of war and of waste But, you turn right over to the TV page
Chorus
Now I'm walking again to the beat of a drum And I'm counting the steps to the door of your heart Only shadows ahead, barely clearing the roof Get to know the feeling of liberation and release
Chorus
Don't let them win Hey now Hey now
Hey now Hey now Hey now Hey now
Don't let them win Don't let them win
