Well far between sundown's finish and midnight's broken toll. We ducked inside the doorway thunder crashin'. As majestic bells of boats struck shadows in the sun;. Sayin' it may be the chimes of freedom flashin'. Flashin' for the warriors whose strength is not to fight;. Flashin' for the refugees on their unarmed road of flight.. And for each and every underdog soldier in the night. We gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashin'. Well in the city's melted furnace unexpectedly we watched. With faces hidden here while the walls were tightenin'. As the echo of the wedding bells before the blowing rain;. Dissolved into the wild bales of lightnin'. Yeah tollin' for the rebel yeah tollin' for the raked. Tollin' for the luckless the abandoned and forsaked.. Yeah tollin' for the outcasts burnin' constantly at stakes. And we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashin'. Oh yeah! (instrumental solo). And then through a cloud-like curtain in a far off corner flashed. There's a hypnotic splattered mist was slowly liftin'. Well electric light still struck like arrows. Fired but for the ones condemned to drift or else be kept from driftin'. Well tollin' for the searching ones on this speechless secret trail. For the lonesome haunted lovers with too personal a tale.. And for each young heart for each channeled soul misplaced inside a jail. Yeah we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashin'. Well starry eyed and laughin' i recall when we were caught. Trapped by an old track of vows for the hands suspended. As we listened one last time and we watched with one last look. Spellbound and swallowed "has the tollin' ended?". Yeah tollin' for the achin' ones whose wounds cannot be nursed. For the countless confused accused misused strung out ones at worst.. And for every hung out person in the whole wide universe. We gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashin'. Uh uh uh... (to end)
