tift merritt – my heart is free lyrics
well, the first thing i remember is the last thing that i saw,
morning hit the barrel of a rifle going off.
then the daylight wrapped around me,
then i heard the sergeant scream,
then all my reservations fell gently at my feet.
now my heart is free.
my heart is free, and all the things that hold a man no longer carry me.
i was sure there was a reason to take that side and fight,
but when i saw the trembling hands that put that shot in flight,
i saw the hands of jesus, saw the sh-r-s at normandy,
saw a hundred thousand weary lost and homesick boys like me.
now my heart is free.
my heart is free, and all the things that hold a man no longer carry me.
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.
you don’t remember my name or the girl that i made proud,
and whatever drew me from her arms is nothing to me now.
now my heart is free.
my heart is free, and all the things that hold a man no longer carry me.
