Colm Mac Carthy - Free To Dream

Wind in my hair, tears in my eyes
Trying to walk tall, keep my head high
Looking for sunshine, thinking of home
Dreaming of happier days
Dreaming of happier days

Darkness coats the city streets
Winter shreds the autumn leaves
Voices in the shadows murmur empty words
Walking past the broken lives
Where Johns steal comfort late at night
Where needles and innocence do die
Death is your friend

Wind in my hair, tears in my eyes
Trying to walk tall, keep my head high
Looking for sunshine, thinking of home
Dreaming of happier days
Dreaming of happier days

Jenny died at seventeen
Another wasted human being
Burned by pain, hate and despair
Will I share her fate tonight
Will my bruises ever heal
Can I ever be free
Is hope just a dream

Wind in my hair, tears in my eyes
Trying to walk tall, keep my head high
Looking for sunshine, thinking of home
Dreaming of happier days
Dreaming of happier days

Known that world for many a year
The cracks were wide, my fall so far
Wasted love and years of my life
Time to board a brand new train
Run to those green and distant hills
Far from bright city lights
A fresh new breeze

Wind in my hair, hope in my eyes
Walking so tall, head held high
Sun on my back, feeling alive
Free to dream of better days
Free to dream of better days
