eddie from ohio - lady freedom lyrics

Loading...

did you know our skyline’s low?
no one should stand taller than her.
highest vertical refrain–
i wonder if anyone notices her?
i must admit, if i’m not looking ahead,
i’m staring down, or just the other way…
is it me; or, since she came down,
does she now face the other way?

i dream i’m lady freedom
standing on a dome
and i have a westward vision
and yes, i can see your home.
i see to california
to anchorage and nome
and the back of a head of a woman
her plume could use a comb.
it’s me
lady freedom
do you miss me while i’m gone?

have you heard the whirlybird
pulling lady off of her perch?
call it her sabbatical
i saw it all on my way to work
i second-guess and i double-take
i should triple-think, but then i look away
am i mad; or, since she came down,
does she now face the other way?

i dream i’m lady freedom
lifted off a dome
i see a rolling quilted vista
and there’s your brother’s home
i seem to dwarf the groundlings
must be their mother gnome
and a pen in the hand of a woman
wrote a most inspired poem.
about me,
lady freedom
do you notice that i’m gone?
that i’m gone?

i just learned of her return
looks like freedom’s back from her break
this new change in att-tude
reminds me she’s not here for her sake
i must admit that when she came down
i didn’t think she went away
am i mad; or, since she came back,
do i view things a different way?

i dream i’m lady freedom
back upon a dome
and i have an eastward vision
and, yes, there are fewer homes.
i see the taj mahal
and st. peter’s in rome
and the back of the head of a woman
shining like she’s chrome
it’s me
lady freedom
standing on a dome.

do do do do do do do…
