I don't just care about my friends-- I am head-over-heels in love with them.


Hush baby, the music is still there
It hasn't left us yet, it hasn't left us now
Tears will do you no good
Darling, dry your eyes and continue on
Don't break down and die

Listen to the wind
Do as it says, follow the path
He is never wrong, he is never gone
Whole legs you have,calcium coursing through
The river talks about you

The iron cannot pull you down like lead
The broken chain is bonded by freedom
The links are empty
Baby, no more sorrow
But showers of joy

Dance away from this sea
Like the dead crop in the storm
No more sun beaten down
No more bloody screams
No more roped up trees

The whip is unbraiding
Cuts are covered by cloth
We are all packing our bags for good
The boats shall rock no more
The chains have rusted away

The iron cannot pull you down like lead
The broken chain is bonded by freedom
The links are empty
Baby, no more sorrow
But showers of joy

The broken chain is bonded by freedom
The links are empty
