Free At Last

I want to play and soar and dream.
Fly above the fields until I am free.

No pain, no sorrow and no fear,
Can touch me now that I am here.

Breathe in the breeze and feel the sun,
Across my face, I run and run!!!

I play and laugh among the trees.
Alive! Alive! I breathe! I breathe!

With legs so strong, I run so fast;
The world just smiles as I go past.

Sweet laughter bubbles up inside,
For freedom long denied, denied.

No tears, no pain, remembered here,
I've been released from all my fears,

To run and laugh until the day
When all bad things have passed away.
